(HealthNewsDigest.com) – Woodstock, NY — There’s a new resource by best-selling author and nationally esteemed health expert Susun S. Weed, which presents integrative, alternative, and conventional treatment options for both men’s and women’s reproductive health. It’s called Down There: Sexual and Reproductive Health, the Wise Woman Way (Ash Tree Publishing, $29.95).
“For both genders, the pelvis is a potent place in our body that holds enormous energies,” says Weed. “It’s also a complicated area of the body that, for many of us, remains mysterious.” She believes this helps to explain why we’re perplexed, fearful, or even embarrassed when there’s a health concern “down there.”
Weed destigmatizes such common conditions as dry vagina, herpes, enlarged prostate, incontinence, and sexual difficulties in a new reference for both genders. As in her earlier books, she views health and healing through the lens of the Wise Woman Tradition, “the oldest way of healing.” She shows us how to support the body’s natural ability to heal itself and how to safely use modern medicines too.
Weed offers readers a range of effective herbal, homeopathic, and energy medicines to try before resorting to pharmaceutical drugs with heavy-duty side effects and invasive surgery, which she explains in clear detail, including side effects.
Readers will learn:
Effective ways to treat incontinence without drugs or surgery
How to get more enjoyment out of sex—even after 50
Natural treatments for STDs and STIs
How to keep your cervix, uterus, and ovaries healthy and cancer-free
How to avoid a hysterectomy
What men with erectile dysfunction can use instead of the little blue pill
Important news for men with enlarged prostates—how to avoid surgery and prevent prostate cancer
The back section of Weed’s encyclopedic reference comprises many pages of endnotes plus original recipes and instructions for making your own tinctures, teas, tonics, poultices, and other healing formulas to turn your kitchen into a personal apothecary. She also includes mail order and internet sources for all the ingredients mentioned in the book.
Weed’s Wise Woman approach to health and healing not only gives people simple, safe options and remedies, but also serves as a sensible counterpoint to, in her words, “the medical profession’s ever-expanding use of screening tests, followed by invasive tests, and treatments that lead to new symptoms, new scars, and new fears.”
