PMS -Premenstrual Syndrome

Case History

“In 2001 whilst at work I felt the most excruciating pain in my pubic area that had me folded in half on the office floor. I started bleeding uncontrollably and was rushed to Westminster Hospital. 

After the examination they discarded the possibility of a miscarriage. I was diagnosed by the doctors with a severe case of Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), more specifically Dysmenorrhoe - painful menstruation and Menorrhagia - abnormal bleeding of the uterus during menstruation.” Michelle*

All in all for 14 years I had been suffering with this severe and merciless form of Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) or Premenstrual Tension (PMT). 

Michelle says “For a week before my periods, I would experience: mood swings; irritability or aggression; extra sensitive to other people’s comments; back pain; heaviness in my legs and cravings for chocolate (obsessively).

On top of this during my periods, I used to experience the worst possible cramps on day 1 and 2, forcing me to take a very strong painkiller every 4 hours to be able to continue with my daily tasks. In addition for the 4 days during my period I used to experience: an upset stomach and stomach pains; lack of energy and tiredness; a feeling of sadness; breast tenderness; heavy bleeding; feeling bloated and skin breakouts.

This meant for 11 in every 28 days I suffered with these symptoms. That’s 132 days a year, nearly a third of my adult life…I couldn’t let it continue!”

When Michelle met Michael

Michelle says “The gynaecologists and doctors suggested I should try and cope with my monthly symptoms by improving my diet, exercising and trying to remain stress free in the 2 weeks prior to my menstruation.

I did my best to implement such changes, although my symptoms diminished slightly, a little stress would set them off again with a mighty force, I felt like a slave to my own body.

Fear took over my life on a monthly basis, dependency of painkillers developed, anxiety, depression and a sense of helplessness. This was until I came across Bioenergy Healing and Michael Cohen.”

In January 2006 Michelle took a big step and started Bioenergy Healing Treatment with me in order to deal with these and other symptoms.

What transpired over six months was quite literally life transforming. In particular the shifts to her menstrual cycle:

• PMT symptoms reduced dramatically.

• Periods arrived “without painful warnings”.

• No more mood swings or emotional imbalances.

• Stopped taking painkillers.

• Controllable and even level of bleeding.

• No skin breakouts.

• Reduced chocolate cravings.

Why is Bioenergy Healing Treatment effective

Bioenergy Healing is effective because it allowed Michelle's body to break the cycle it had got caught up into for 14 years. Because Bioenergy Healing has the ability to release memory patterns on both the cellular and psychological levels, Michelle was able to shift forward without having to focus on the problem or issues related to it. It was like pressing some master re-set buttons, without the hormone supplements or cognitive / stress therapy.

 Bioenergy Healing challenges conventional medicine in the way it can re-wire the brain and the body’s biological and cellular systems. Which in turn can have a dramatic affect on the functioning of the body’s production of chemical compounds, hormones and their entwinement with the mind.

Treatment Techniques

Bioenergy Healing is a dynamic technique that uses hands-on and hands-off techniques to scan the body’s circuitry (electromagnetic) system and connective pathways. These techniques pinpoint the primary blockage points that are the root cause of the physical and psychological symptoms.

The blockages are then released through hands-on manipulation techniques and hands-off stretching energy techniques. These lead to major shifts in the mind and physiological function:

The Mind

With respect to the mind, neuron communication determines a person’s total perception on life and everything that they experience. There is nothing permanent about what they think, feel or do. It is just their current make-up that causes their brain neurons to fire in a certain way.

By normalising the production of chemicals (neurotransmitters) in the brain i.e. Serotonin will have a major affect on symptoms such as irritability, depression and mood swings.

Bioenergy Healing can enhance neuron communication (re-wiring of the brain) - bringing about an enhancement / shift in: perception, balance, order, rationale, coping mechanism, non-dependency, confidence, positive mental attitude, clarity, focus, ability to adapt (without compromise), instinctual awareness and survival skills.

The Physiological Function

Bioenergy Healing can have an affect on the function of the cells responsible for the body’s reproductive and hormonal systems. Working with both hands-on and hands-off techniques brings order to cells in these systems to enable them to function effectively.

Bioenergy Healing simply brings order to cell function by activating repair and regeneration, which then brings order to the mind. This in turn enables the body to produce the necessary hormones and balance its sensitivity to estrogen and progesterone.

What we are talking about is defragmentating the body i.e. to remove the disorder/chaos, bringing about a level of order to the cells and mind.
