Self care is health care! Well it’s actually true when it comes to uterine fibroids. A big part of the Fibroid Wise Program is using self care tools to help increase circulation to the uterus, reduce inflammation and encourage a healthy immune system.
Self-care isn’t just warm baths and face masks (which are awesome) but can actually be very therapeutic and make a great impact on your uterine fibroid journey. These are my favorite self care therapies which are taught in the Fibroid Wise Program.
Therapeutic Castor Oil Packs Are Amazing for Uterine Fibroid Support
Therapeutic castor oil packs can be an effective way to manage uterine fibroids. Castor oil is rich in essential fatty acids and, when applied to the skin through a castor oil pack, can help reduce fibroid symptoms such as pelvic pressure and pain. Additionally, castor oil packs can improve circulation to the affected area and help reduce inflammation.
Castor oil packs are so important for women’s health that I formulated and created the Womb Care Castor Oil Kit. Womb Care Castor Oil Packs are the perfect choice for therapeutic purposes. The castor oil is organic, infused with essential oils to nourish and heal the womb, and can be worn with a hands-off wrap that allows you to go about your day while receiving its healing properties. This makes it an ideal choice for those looking for a convenient way to get the benefits of castor oil without having to worry about the hassle of getting it on and off multiple times throughout the day. The wraps are designed to provide comfort and warmth, allowing maximum absorption into the tissues.
The Potency of Self Fertility Massage™ in Fibroid Management
Self Fertility Massage™ is a series of massage techniques that are used to help support reproductive health, the menstrual cycle, and your fertility- all from the comfort of your own home! This type of massage is easy to learn, perform and is cost-effective!
One of the greatest benefits of massage is the ability to break up adhesions and bring in circulation to the area being massaged. Uterine fibroids may compress and compromise circulation to the uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries or other surrounding organs. Self Fertility Massage™ helps to promote healthy circulation, helps the body to rid itself of old stagnant blood and tissues in the uterus, and promotes hormonal balance by strengthening the hormonal feedback loop. This helps to restore balance and health in the reproductive system. Additionally, Self Fertility Massage™ works to release emotional tensions and stress-related hormones such as cortisol which can impair reproductive health when present in high levels over a long period of time. The combination of physical massage techniques combined with specific acupressure points can also help reduce pain associated with fibroids & cramps while promoting health in the reproductive system. Self Fertility Massage™ can be used alone or combined with other natural therapies to promote help manage uterine fibroids.
