About Me
You guessed it, I was diagnosed with Endometriosis. And it got me good. Until I took back control.
It got me down. From around the time of my diagnosis, for almost 3 years, it was ‘knock-out’. At times I could hardly walk, every moment was agony, everything hurt, surgeries exacerbated, I was tired of explaining myself on deaf ears (links to my story). Look, you probably know the drill if you’ve found yourself here. But from rock bottom, there’s only up.
It wasn’t gone after those 3 years, but my God has it improved. Now 5 years on, managed and under control. Dare I say, healed? No. (Word to the wise, don’t trust anyone who say they’ll heal you).
Today, my once 10 day periods have averaged to 5. I no longer have a season pass to the trampoline-bouncing-sumo-wrestling-match going off in my uterus around my period. The chronic and all over body aches, lethargy, malaise, fatigue – massively decreased. I still get flare ups here there, but the cure and the cause hold mystery no more; my perception and capacity to anticipate and mitigate flare ups has improved. And I find a far lower intensity and chronicity of pains, hectic mood swings and emotional outbursts. Healing is a journey; the cliché holds true.
Our products and programmes are designed to support your journey of rehabilitation, to guide you with easy-to-follow directions, founded on real science. A systems biology approach, with tenants of chronobiology thrown into the mix to address keystone patterns on physiological and psychological pathology.
What did all those words mean? Here is a breakdown of the science and philosophy the Endo Entrained system is based upon.
