My continued THANKS go to Emma Stimpson. At the age of 45 I started getting migraines headaches, stomach cramps, mood swings plus feelings of illness and sight issues prior to my periods. This had been happening for about six months before I consulted with naturopath Emma Stimpson.
Emma explained to me that I was peri-menopausal and that a hormonal imbalance was causing my headaches. She prescribed herbal medicine to balance my hormones and the results were much quicker than I expected. My headaches were less severe at my next period and over the next three months of taking the herbal medicine, my headaches and other symptoms reduced significantly. After six months of the treatment I was able to stop taking the medication completely as I no longer had any of the above mentioned issues prior to my period.
While I was seeing Emma, I decided to also discuss another long term issue I had been having. I suffered from extreme pain in my knees which had been diagnosed as 'a bit of arthritis' by my doctor. I was taking a couple of 'commercially branded' nutritional supplements to assist. After discussing the type of pain I was feeling Emma recommended some different herbal and nutritional supplements. These supplements definitely helped my joint pain. I still take these supplements to this day, I still have pain but these supplements reduce that pain.
I continue to see Emma when I have any health concerns and would definitely recommend her to family and friends. Emma is easy to talk to with a nurturing demeanour and her knowledge and professionalism is second to none. Thank you Emma.
