Natural Endometriosis Treatment Melbourne

Endometriosis Treatment Melbourne
Endometriosis is a condition that affects 10 to 15 percent of menstruating women between the ages of 24 and 40. It develops when the lining of the uterus (called the endometrium) forms entirely outside of the uterus instead of being confined to it. In many cases, the lining can grow and produce lesions that can result in chronic or acute pelvic pain.

Endometriosis often takes years to develop and may present little to no symptoms. It is commonly under-diagnosed and mistaken for just a painful period. In some cases, symptoms begin with the onset of menstruation, but in most, they begin later and progressively worsen with time. For much-needed relief from painful symptoms, you can seek effective natural treatment for endometriosis at Melbourne Natural Medicine Clinic, including acupuncture for endometriosis.

WHY IS ENDOMETRIOSIS A PROBLEM?

Not only do women with endometriosis suffer from severe pain with menstruation, which can result in numerous days off work, but the condition can result in miscarriage and infertility. In fact, endometriosis is one of the leading causes of female infertility. Our naturopathy endometriosis treatment at Melbourne Natural Medicine Clinic aims to lessen or alleviate these risks.

There are a number of developing theories as to the actual cause. Naturopaths believe that ‘oestrogen dominance’, caused by an increase or imbalance in the level of the hormone, is a major driving factor in this condition.

An experienced endometriosis specialist can offer natural therapies aimed at restoring hormonal balance and supporting overall reproductive health.

A genetic predisposition, immune system dysfunction, and blood flowing in the opposite direction to what is normal (called “retrograde” blood flow) are also considered to be contributing factors. One-third of women with endometriosis does not present with symptoms of the condition. Those who do experience symptoms typically experience them several years after the onset of their period, and progress over time.

COMMON SYMPTOMS INCLUDE:

  • Pelvic/abdominal cramping and pain with menstruation
  • Acute pain that occurs before menstruation and can last for a day or two during menstruation or throughout the month
  • Pain during sex
  • Infertility (difficulty falling pregnant)
  • Pain with bladder/bowel function, intestinal pain
  • Tenderness when affected areas are palpated
  • Vomiting, diarrhoea and fainting can occur concurrently with the intense pelvic/abdominal cramping and even labour-like pains.
  • Chronic bearing-down pain and pressure on the low back which may radiate down the legs with menstruation
  • Fatigue, especially with menstruation

Natural endometriosis treatment at Melbourne Natural Medicine Clinic can aid in the relief of many of these symptoms using acupuncture for endometriosis and other holistic treatment options.

WHAT ARE THE MAIN RISK FACTORS FOR DEVELOPING ENDOMETRIOSIS?

  • Inheriting the condition from your mother
  • Women with shorter menstrual cycles and longer duration of blood flow
  • Lack of exercise from an early age, a high-fat diet, use of intrauterine devices
  • Hormonal imbalance
  • Excessive use of tampons

HOW NATUROPATHY FOR ENDOMETRIOSIS CAN HELP

When you come to seek natural endometriosis treatment at Melbourne Natural Medicine Clinic, our naturopaths will formulate a thorough case history to determine the cause and severity of your condition. They may recommend saliva hormone testing and educate you on your options for a medical diagnosis. They may also suggest investigations to confirm a diagnosis.

Based on the information gathered, your naturopath might advise particular dietary and lifestyle changes. They may also prescribe herbal and nutritional medicines tailored specifically to treat your symptoms and resolve the underlying issue. Other treatments might include balancing the hormones, optimising the liver function to conjugate and metabolise hormones, performing acupuncture for endometriosis, and releasing toxins from the body by encouraging healthy bowel motions and healthy gut flora. Normalising the immune response to reduce the formation of new adhesions and to assist with the dissolving of current adhesions is also addressed.

ACUPUNCTURE FOR ENDOMETRIOSIS

We take pride in offering acupuncture for endometriosis as part of our suite of natural remedies. This involves inserting very fine needles through a person’s skin at specific strategic points on their body, located along an energy pathway or ‘meridian’ which corresponds with internal organs. This natural and non-invasive approach causes little to no discomfort and can complement other treatments to alleviate the symptoms of endometriosis.

Our acupuncturists treat your body as an interconnected system, carrying out the procedure to promote the body’s natural healing capabilities and restore optimal functioning of the uterus and abdominal cavity. By stimulating nerves, muscles, and tissues, we may be able to increase blood flow, reduce inflammation, release feel-good neurotransmitters, improve immune function, decrease cellular estrogen levels, and more.

Reviews

I have been seeing Erin Graystone for the last 5 months for gut issues I have had for a number of years. She is very knowledgeable and ensured that the treatment and solution provided was targeted and tailored to my issues which has brought me great relief and improvement. A very professional, friendly and understanding approach that I would recommend to others.
Lina is absolutely fantastic to work with. Her passion for her work shows in absolutely every aspect of her practise - her level of care, her thoroughness & determination to help.
Angela is friendly and helpful, she takes the time to explain things clearly and cares about health. I have felt an improvement since following her advice thank you 🙏
Emma is friendly, knowledgeable & very thorough in her testing so as to resolve existing issues.
Coming into the clinic it feels instantly warm and cuddly. Very welcoming. I had the pleasure of seeing Rebecca, she was amazing and very knowledgable. Rebecca was brilliant at prescribing me natural supplements that catered to my specific needs. I’d love to praise her on her communication skills also, I am Deaf, and even having my interpreter alongside me, Rebecca spoke and looked directly at me, making me feel seen, heard and understood. I would also give a big round of applause to the receptionist and other staff at the clinic, they were all very accomodating, warm and friendly.
I've been seeing Lina for about two years now to treat a skin related condition. Lina is extremely knowledgeable; she is patient and persistent but best of all, she is practical! Her advice was tailored to suit my lifestyle and commitments without being unworkable or unrealistic. She really cares and is passionate about health. I would recommend Lina 100%.
I have been seeing Erin Graystone for the past 4 months due to leaky gut symptoms and a bacterial overgrowth in my GI tract. Erin is knowledgeable, kind and understanding and really goes the extra mile to make sure you are getting the right treatment. My symptoms are greatly reduced and we are on track to a full recovery after 10 years of other practitioner’s not finding an answer. It’s been life changing. Can’t recommend her highly enough. Thankyou Erin
Today was my second visit with Lina who is so kind and caring and she has given me hope that my perimenopause symptoms can be balanced with her guidance. I have already felt a shift in my sleep which had been horrible. The clinic is so lovely, staff are very helpful and I look forward to the journey ahead of managing this transition in my life.
I've had stomach problems for years and doctors have never properly diagnosed the problem. After one meeting with Emma I was giving a breath test and found the issue. We are now working to fix the issue
