Why do hormones get out of balance?

Hormones are your body’s messengers. They tell your body when to wake up, make energy, store fuel and sleep. Making and using them is part of your metabolism. When something gets in the way, you can feel it. People often come to us with low energy, mood swings, weight changes, period changes or low drive.

The cause is different for each person. Here are some common ones:

  • Long-term stress. Stress changes cortisol, your main stress hormone.
  • Low nutrients. Your body needs them to make hormones.
  • Poor sleep. Hormones follow a daily rhythm, and sleep keeps that rhythm steady.
  • Gut trouble. Your gut helps clear used hormones out of the body.
  • Life stages. Hormones shift over a lifetime.

Two people can feel tired or moody for very different reasons. That is why we find out why for you.

The Deep Healing Method: 3 steps

Our Deep Healing Method looks for the root cause, then works on it in three steps.

1. Data: find out why

First, we test and check. We do not guess. Blood, saliva or urine tests can check hormones like estrogen, progesterone, DHEA and testosterone. A hormone panel can also check cortisol, which rises and falls through the day, to show how your body handles stress. Tests we may use: the DUTCH hormone test kit.

2. Remove obstacles: detox

Next, we take away what is in the way of healing. Stress, poor sleep and a heavy load on the body can all get in the way of balanced hormones. We help your body clear out what builds up, including through the gut and liver. We look at food, stress and sleep habits, too.

3. Replace: put back what is low

Last, we put back what is low. Your tests may show low levels of something your body needs to make or balance hormones. We also find out why it was low in the first place. Clinical supplementation is chosen only after your assessment. We plan how long you need support, and we check in as you go.

HORMONE THERAPIES USED

Bioidentical Hormones (BHRT), When Prescribed

If testing shows a hormone imbalance, your naturopathic doctor will talk with you about your options. These may include prescription bioidentical hormones (BHRT), which have the same structure as the hormones your body makes.

Detoxification

Detoxification can help to remove these toxins and restore balance to the body. There are many different ways to detoxify the body, including juice cleanses, teas, and supplements.

Hormonal Imbalance Correction

Hormonal imbalances can majorly impact our health, causing various symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, mood changes and poor sleep. Often, these imbalances are caused by underlying nutrient deficiencies. At Inside Health Clinic we work to correct hormonal imbalances through supplementation, botanical medicine and clinical nutrition.

Stress Reduction Techniques

It’s no secret that stress can take a toll on our health. When we’re under constant pressure, our bodies go into fight-or-flight mode, leading to hormone imbalances and other problems. That’s why it’s so important to find ways to reduce stress in our lives. Mindfulness, yoga, and meditation are all excellent stress-reduction techniques.

IV Vitamin Therapy

IV vitamin therapy is offered only after an assessment with a naturopathic doctor, who decides if it is right for you and what goes in it.

Colon Hydrotherapy

Colon hydrotherapy is a gentle rinse of the large bowel with warm, filtered water. Many people use it as part of a plan for digestion and regularity, when their naturopathic doctor feels it fits.

PEMF (Pulse Electromagnetic Field Therapy)

PEMF therapy is a treatment that uses magnetic fields to heal the body. It has been used for centuries and is said to help with various conditions, including pain relief, inflammation, and circulation problems. This therapy is also said to improve sleep quality, decrease stress, and boost energy levels.

Lymphatic Enhancement

Lymphatic Enhancement is a form of bodywork that helps improve the lymphatic system’s function. The lymphatic system is a network of vessels and glands that help to remove toxins and wastes from the body to evade disease. This type of therapy helps to increase the flow of lymph fluid, which helps to improve the function of the lymphatic system.
