Endometriosis can have a deep emotional effect on sufferers, and some of the available alternative treatments can be extremely successful in this area. For instance, aromatherapy can afford support in addressing stress and depression, whilst homeopathy is renowned for exposing latent emotional problems.
Choose the treatment that you feel would be best for you. Obviously if you have a needle or injection phobia, then acupuncture would be out of the question. A common sense approach should see the right choice being made.
It is important to understand that an endometriosis alternative treatment option, whilst generally being safer and milder, will not provide an instant fix, but can prove to be an effective choice over the longer term.
The next step should be to locate and choose a reputable, qualified practitioner in your chosen area of natural alternative treatment. Your investigation and research should involve finding out the following:
- What qualifications are held by the practitioner?
- What was the type and length of training?
- Does the practitioner belong to a recognized professional organisation.
- If so, is there a specific code of practice?
- Is treatment available via a doctor’s referral?
- Does health insurance cover the treatment?
- What is the cost?
- How many consultations might be required?
It is important that you choose a practitioner that you trust, and, in particular, one that is experienced in dealing with endometriosis and its implications.
So take your time in making your choice. It is much better to wait a little longer if it ensures you come to the right decision for you.
