hormone program
hormone testing and support in Baker City and Eastern Oregon.
Who is it for?
Anyone who has hormones (hi, hello, that's all of us) who is sick of trying to navigate them on their own.
What are we going to do?
We're gonna work together to get your hormones in a more ideal state of wherever you're at in life.
How?
We'll use a DUTCH test, maybe some acupuncture if you're local, Mary will use their nutritional magic and you'll learn how and where your body needs help and how you can help it.
Why use the DUTCH test?
The DUTCH test is an industry standard. It looks not only at our base hormones (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, etc) but also their metabolites, which shows us how your body is using the hormones it's producing and where it's struggling. Mary uses the NAQ (Nutritional Assessment Questionnaire) and your food journal as a starting point for their nutritional assessment and builds a plan for you from there.
Why take 6 months?
Healing is not a quick or linear progression. Giving yourself time for the body to heal and for the supplements and nutrition to do their work helping your balance is key. It will take your body some time to start to regulate and heal. Giving yourself 6 months will help you implement lifelong changes.

Most of you know me already, but what is going to be different about this program is that it is not acupuncture driven. Yes, we can use acupuncture to help balance the hormones, but the real change comes through slow, steady, sustainable modifications that allow your body the time to heal and regulate. You'll be getting access to my knowledge about the DUTCH test and hormones in general from a holistic lens driven by Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Blood tests capture a single moment in time. Additionally most conventional blood lab results are not all that useful to allopathic medical providers.
Why not blood tests?
