Do you suffer from tender, puffy, enlarged, aching and sore breasts? Often this is suffered in silence due to embarrassment or thinking it is the norm. Breast congestion can be relieved amazingly through kinesiology techniques which reduce chest congestion .You can do one of these at home yourself, make your right hand into a fist like shape, massage firmly from the knee upwards on the outside of the leg (along trouser seam) towards the hip while at the same time holding the tender area of your breast.

Lactose Intolerance: Abdominal bloating/swelling, gagging, vomiting, nausea, excess wind, tummy pain, cramps, diarrhoea, back pain, congested sinuses. These symptoms can be due to you being lactose intolerant.
Lactose is the sugar found in milk and all dairy products made from milk. The enzyme lactase is needed to breakdown lactose in the small intestine so the lactose can easily be absorbed. When the enzyme is deficient in the system, the lactose passes directly into the large intestine. The bacteria present in the large intestine break it down into lactic acid. Lactic acid causes irritation to the bowel resulting in a laxative effect resulting [Read more...]
Mary came to me with as she said a very embarrassing problem… no one to date was able to sort out her problem of bad breath, more often than not she saw people making strange faces or pulling back from her while she spoke with them, many days she could smell it herself and then she knew it was really bad.

Suffering from vague and mild intestinal upsets to debilitating fatigue and intolerances to food and environmental substances such as cosmetics, cleaning agents, perfumes and so on. This may be due to gut imbalance or intestinal dysbiosis.
In healthy intestines /gut the body contains over 400 different kinds of micro-organisms all living within a delicate balance within their own ecosystem. In other words this system works perfectly happy independently without any issues until we cause an imbalance. Stress on an ongoing basis creates acid in the body and promotes floral imbalance. Reducing stress is critical for a good working digestive system [Read more...]
