As you may know, our mission is to “Help women feel better”. But sometimes men come in and want to know, will you help me too? The answer is YES! And since it’s National Men’s Health week thought we would talk more about how we can help the men in your life.
So what do we do for men?
First, let’s talk about stress. Most of us have it including men! Not sure you or the man in your life are stressed? See if any of these symptoms sound familiar…
- trouble getting to sleep or staying asleep
- heart palpitations
- depression
- anxiety
- muscle tension
- headaches
- low libido
- fatigue
- digestive issues
- high blood pressure
- and many more!
Many of the same supplements we suggest for women who are stressed work for men too. L-Theanine is a fantastic supplement that can help with many of the symptoms above. L-Theanine can be taken as needed, multiple times a day, without drowsiness.
Trouble sleeping? Muscle cramps? Magnesium is another great supplement for men and women.
We also recommend fish oil for men – it’s great for the heart and can help reduce inflammation.
Don’t forget about gut health! Probiotics are great for everyone. Gut health is at the core of staying healthy and well.
Plus, we now carry CBD Oil. We’re getting great feedback from those using it for inflammation, sleep, pain, anxiety and more. Men love the CBD salve to rub on for aches and pains as well!
What About Testosterone?
We also compound Testosterone for men! Keep in mind, Testosterone requires a prescription from a physician. Compounded Testosterone an be made in a lower volume cream or gel, so there is less chance of transferring over to a partner!
The process for helping men feel better begins just like it does for women. Saliva testing is helpful for issues with sleep, stress and anxiety. Supplements and lifestyle changes will be recommended. If hormones are desired, blood work for Testosterone is needed for patients already on hormones or interested in exploring that as an option. A recommendation will be sent to your physician after a consultation and the prescription will be compounded after your physician’s approval.
Men – stop by today – we would love to chat with you about how we can help YOU feel better!
