This is a very common question that I get asked ALOT. Almost daily in fact, someone will ask me if I have “anything” that can help them with…. (insert ailment, condition, symptoms here). Some of the more common questions are:
Can you help with my headaches?
I’m depressed and I have anxiety….Can natural remedies help?
Can you help with my stomach problems? I’m constipated or I have IBS….
Can you help with my pain? My joints hurt or my back hurts….
I’m always tired and have lots of fatigue…is there a natural substance that can help my energy?
I have allergies and don’t want to take allergy shots anymore….
My child has been diagnosed with ADHD or ADD and I wonder if there is something nutritional that I can do to help him/her?
I don’t get good sleep and taking sleeping pills makes me groggy the next day…is there something natural that can help?
These are just a few of the more common questions that I get asked. And the answer is always YES. Yes there are natural substances, herbs, essential oils, etc., that can assist with helping you feel better and help your body get back into balance.
The beautiful thing about working with natural health remedies, therapeutic essential oils and whole food nutritional products, is that those items are all very supportive of the human body. They help to restore balance INSIDE the body. While you do your part to work on changing your lifestyle, daily habits and dietary intake, the supplements that I recommend not only support you in that endeavor, but actually FEED your body “the good stuff”…..vitamins, minerals, enzymes, phytochemicals, antioxidants, etc. All of that good stuff helps your body repair damage, grow new cells and get back in balance once again.
The human body is designed to be “in balance”. We are not meant to have all of these symptoms and ailments that unfortunately, plague many people today. Typically, natural substances do not cause side effects like most prescription medications. But instead they bring about gentle healing and support so you can get back to feeling your best.
So again the answer is YES. There are a wide variety of natural and herbal products that probably can help you with your (insert symptom or ailment here). Remember that no matter your health condition, nutrition and natural and herbal therapies will be SUPPORTIVE and HEALING and combined with other therapies, can help you be the best you can be.

My step daughter went to the hospital last night only to find out that she has a throat hiatal hernia. They want to put a balloon down her throat to stretch the hernia and this will be an annual thing.
Is there anything that you may suggest.
I am going to give her some Aroma Siez to help with the inflamation.
I am open to any suggestions.
Thanks,
Becky Bird

Hi Becky,
Thanks for writing. Aroma Siez is probably OK; you might also try Marjoram and Lavender to help relax the muscles.
More importantly though, would be to address WHY this happened. From a Naturopathic perspective, there are many causes. Definitely physiological ones (like insufficient digestive enzymes) among other things, can cause this. Also, there is a definite emotional cause as well. If she works to correct the imbalance within her body, this may not turn into an “annual” thing.
Good luck on your (and her) journey and hope she gets better soon!
Blessings,
Melissa
