FEELING SAD? HYPERIFORCE MAY BE THE ANSWER
Research carried out in a 6-week trial involving 201 patients with previously untreated, slight to moderate depression and vegetative symptoms has shown A Vogel Hyperiforce to be a safe, efficacious and well-tolerated remedy, with symptoms of depression (depressiveness, nervousness and anxiety) being reduced by 50%.

At some stage in their life, one in six people in Western Europe will suffer from a depressive episode requiring therapy. One of the most common reasons for consulting a GP is for symptoms of mild to moderate depression, anxiety and nervousness. As well as the depressive symptoms, people often experience concomitant vegative symptoms, such as gastrointestinal disorders, circulatory problems, sleep disturbances, tiredness and headaches.

During November we are offering A Vogel Hyperiforce at a discount of 20%, Normal retail £9.25 Special price £7.40 http://www.naturalhealthwelwyn.co.uk/store/product/41565/A-Vogel-Hyperiforce-60-tabs/


RECOMMENDED BY AILA BARON, HOMEOPATH
Aconite is a great remedy for symptoms that come on suddenly. It is useful for colds, coughs, sore throats and fevers. It is especially useful for colds that come on after exposure to cold winds. Aconite is mostly used in the early stages of illnesses and is less useful later on. Aconite taken early enough can really nip the cold ‘in the bud'.
On the emotional level it is used for panic attacks or specific fears like fear of flying.
Use the thirtieth potency and repeat it hourly for a while. Reduce the dose or stop once symptoms improve. Phone Aila on 0208 888 6536 for further details or to make a booking. See http://www.naturaltherapycentre.co.uk/therapist.asp?therapistID=3

FOCUS ON DIGESTIVE PROBLEMS - Nutritional Therapy Case History
Alison Sheldrick, BSc (Hons)., MSc, FdSc Dip. I.O.N., mBANT
Nutritional Health Solutions

When Mrs A came to me she was suffering from diarrhoea, bloating and wind. She sometimes experienced pain after eating and this could make her sick. Her sickness and diarrhoea were accompanied by bleeding, she couldn’t face eating and was losing weight fast. Not surprisingly, she was becoming more and more tired. Mrs A and her family were very worried.
After changing her diet, Mrs A hadn’t had an upset stomach and she said that this was a real relief. She had had a slight headache on the first day, but this had gone now. She was eating food and not experiencing pain or diarrhoea, no bleeding or sickness. Her energy levels had improved. This is an extreme case, but Mrs A got significant relief from her symptoms in less than 6 days. Click on the link to read the full story and find out what she did. For full details, see http://www.naturaltherapycentre.co.uk/viewsuccess.asp?successID=45


Special Offer
If you suffer from digestive problems and would like to find out more, I am offering free 15 minute consultations on Thursday 13 November at the Hertford Natural Therapy Centre. Consultations are by appointment only and places are limited so please call Alison on 07790 745769 to book.


ACUPUNCTURE FOR FERTILITY AND IVF SUPPORT
Martin Logue, (BSc (Hons) TCM, BM (Beijing) TCM, MRCHM, MATCM), Registered practitioner of Acupuncture and Medical Herbalism is offering 10% off fertility and IVF support treatments during the months of November and December. Martin has specialist training in the area of fertility and has trained with Jane Lyttleton; a well known expert on the use of herbal medicine and acupuncture to promote fertility.
There are many ways acupuncture can support women using IVF.
Acupuncture on the day of embryo transfer has been shown to improve implantation rates. Acupuncture before and during the medication phase of IVF prepares the uterine
lining and has been shown to improve hormone levels and increase pregnancy rates.
Acupuncture has been shown to reduce anxiety levels associated with infertility and IVF and can reduce IVF side effects. It is also helpful for women with a history of infertility and/or miscarriage in the first few weeks of pregnancy.
