| Dr.
Geersen specializes in providing chiropractic and nutritional
care for women, and her focus is on pre-menopausal and
menopausal changes, fertility, pregnancy and geriatrics.
|
| For
years, the medical community recommended Hormone Replacement
Therapy for menopausal changes. Then, of course, this
treatment was found to be harmful; not only did it not
prevent against osteoporosis, the therapy also increased
a woman's risk of heart disease and virulent breast cancers.
|
|
| Dr. Geersen
focuses on methods that will help ease a woman through
the menopausal phase of her life, rather than working
to try and unnaturally eradicate all symptoms. She works
with a woman to find natural supplements, herbs and progesterone
creams, that will soften a woman's symptoms, including
hot flashes and the loss of libido. |
Recent studies
have shown that acupuncture is quite useful in the treatment
of fertility. And, for women whose infertility is due
to neurological interference, chiropractic adjustment
is extremely effective in promoting pregnancy, as well.
As a matter of fact, in a recent clinical study, women
who had been infertile for at least five years were given
chiropractic care; fourteen out of fifteen were able to
conceive and bear a child.
Dr. Geersen uses
scanning technology that can determine whether or
not a woman is a good candidate for acupuncture treatment
for infertility.

A pregnant woman secretes a specific hormone - Relaxin
- that helps her ligaments relax so that bones can stretch
and babies can pass easily through the birth canal. But
Relaxin doesn't just focus on the ligaments of the pelvic
bowl, and pregnant women are prone to aches and pains
in other parts of their body due to the relaxing and stretching
effects of this hormone.
Chiropractic care can help keep everything as stable and
as aligned as is possible. Also, Dr. Geersen
can make sure that the pelvic bowl is spreading evenly,
which will help the childbirth process be comfortable.
|
| In addition,
for those women who carry to term and beyond, there is
acupuncture protocol to help a woman's body release the
hormones that trigger labor naturally. Many ob-gyn clinics
send their overdue patients to Dr. Geersen
so that she can help induce labor in a non-chemical, less-painful
way. |
Osteoarthritis, osteoporosis and decreased mobility are
some of the concerns of women in their later years.
With gentle chiropractic adjustments and nutritional
counseling, Dr. Geersen
works with older women to keep their mobility as full
as possible so that their quality of life be as healthy
and as vigorous as possible. |
