Women’s Health at The Wild Fox Acupuncture Clinic in Byron Bay
Women’s Health is my passion & I have a passion for educating women in my Byron Bay Acupuncture Clinic. I have a great desire to support women from Menarche (first menstruation) through to pre-conception care, Pregnancy, Birth, Menopause and beyond. It’s common for women to know very little about the menstrual cycle. Which can lead us to believing that imbalances are normal and we should just get on with it.
The issue we have when we don’t talk about these things is that many women ignore signs that their bodies are out of balance. Many women live with painful & heavy periods, mood swings, sore and swollen breasts, headaches, acne, exhaustion, sub fertility, night sweats and hot flushes, just to name a few. It doesn’t have to be like this, bringing positivity and awareness to the nature of our cycles makes a huge difference.
Women’s Health: Breaking the Taboo:
Things are definitely changing with the help of some amazing women, in early 2015 artist & poet Rupi Kaur posted a photo on Instagram of a woman lying in bed with menstrual blood both on her pants and the sheets. The photo was deleted twice by Instagram, which argued that the photo violated “community guidelines.”
Kaur’s response changed the way I viewed my own menstruation and was a potent reminder about honouring our cycles & reducing the shame many of us feel around menstruation.
“I bleed each month to help make humankind a possibility. My womb is home to the divine. A source of life for our species. Whether I choose to create or not.”
And the incredible Miki Agrawal, her twin sister Radha, and friend Antonia the co founders of THINX ~ underwear for women with periods. Not only are are these period knickers the most revolutionary product of our time, these ladies are breaking the taboo and building period positivity.
