Endometriosis

Endometriosis occurs when cells which normally line the womb (uterus) are found elsewhere in the body. They are commonly found in the Fallopian tubes, on the ovaries, but can also attach to the bladder and bowel.

These patches will bleed in line with the menstrual cycle causing scarring and adhesions, which cause additional pain.

As well as the pain, you may experience fatigue, bloating, heavy periods, and depression.

Reflexology can help to rebalance the root cause of symptoms - hormones! But it also helps to reduce the pain, improve sleep, thereby improving mood and fatigue levels.

In my long nursing career I have worked in gynaecology and understand how debilitating endometriosis can be.
