26 year old women, 5 year history of endometriosis, 2 surgeries, currently on steroids, looking for any easing of the pain, and any solution other than pregnancy, or hysterectomy. Thank you as always for any assistance. Namaste, Suzanne
Natural steroid is asparagus taking large quantities can lessen need for steroids. For pain I suggest she see Sarasvati Buhrman in Boulder or Pat Hansen in Denver (both of Rocky Mountain Institute for Yoga and Ayurveda) both are highly skilled at use of herbal medicines for pain relief. Main practices are for relief of pitta conditions, anti pitta diet, and long-term vata pacifying practices. Pitta practices would be tempered mildly to assist with relief of vata by doing joint freeing series regularly, concentration on prana during asanas, learning specific gentle asana/Vinyasa flows coupled with pranayama to direct prana. For these topics either Pat or I could work with her in person.
