🌿 Your Lymphatic System: The Unsung Hero of Health 💧

Did you know your lymphatic system plays a huge role in detoxing, immunity, and reducing inflammation? It’s like your body’s drainage system — clearing out toxins, excess fluid, and cellular waste.

But here’s the catch: unlike your heart, the lymphatic system doesn’t have a pump — it needs your help to keep things moving. That’s where castor oil packs come in. 🛁✨

✔️ Stimulate lymphatic flow
✔️ Support liver detox
✔️ Reduce bloating and inflammation
✔️ Promote deep relaxation (hello, nervous system reset!)

Add a warm castor oil pack to your self-care routine 3–4x a week and feel the difference in your energy, digestion, and overall glow. 💚

Do you suffer with chronic back pain ?

The double-blind randomised, placebo-controlled, clinical prospective study on pain reduction in patients with cervical spine syndrome, available on our study page, stands as one of the most conclusive pieces of evidence supporting the efficacy of Bioresonance according to Paul Schmidt. It demonstrates that our approach works with waves of success in the truest sense of the word. The results of the study are published in this book.

The study treated patients with chronic pain, i.e. pain that had been present for more than two years. The results of the study suggest a new approach to treatment, particularly for chronic pain. Naturopaths, alternative practitioners, and patients can have confidence in the safe and effective use of Bioresonance according to Paul Schmidt with approved medical products, such as the Rayocomp PS 1000 polar 4.0 med. and the Rayocomp PS 10 med. Treatment with the Rayocomp PS 1000 polar 4.0 med. showed a significant improvement, as you can see in the following extracts from the final report

🛑 Stop Blaming Just Your Hormones!

We often say “It’s my hormones” when we feel off – but hormones don’t go rogue on their own.

So often i have women in my clinic saying they suffer hot flushes, they think they are going through menopause.

I think the term is too widely used and unfortunately we are not looking at the root cause of ‘hormonal issues’

💡 Here’s the truth:
Your gut, liver, pancreas and kidneys play a massive role in hormonal balance.
🦠 A sluggish gut ➔ poor nutrient absorption
🧪 An overloaded liver ➔ impaired detoxification
💉 An inflamed pancreas ➔ blood sugar imbalances
💉A stressed out kidney ➔ cortisol imbalance

👉 Instead of only treating symptoms, look within your whole body system to restore true hormonal health.

✨ Hormones are messengers, not the enemy.
Support your gut. Cleanse your liver. Balance your pancreas. Reduce the stress. Your hormones will thank you.

Too Otten I see high cholesterol in women coming into the clinic

High LDL cholesterol levels can be associated with poor thyroid hormone function, particularly impaired conversion of T4 (thyroxine) to T3 (triiodothyronine) or hypothyroidism in general.

Here's how it works:
🩸Thyroid hormones regulate lipid metabolism. T3, the active form of thyroid hormone, helps the liver clear LDL cholesterol from the blood by upregulating LDL receptors.
🩸If you have low T3—either due to poor conversion from T4 (common in stress, illness, or certain nutrient deficiencies like selenium and zinc) or outright hypothyroidism—LDL clearance is reduced, causing it to build up in the blood.

Possible signs of this situation:
🩸High LDL (especially if triglycerides are normal or low)
🩸Low or low-normal free T3
🩸Normal or high free T4
🩸Normal or high TSH

What to check:
▪️TSH – May be high in overt hypothyroidism, normal in subclinical or conversion issues.

▪️Free T4 and Free T3 – A low free T3 with normal or high T4 suggests poor conversion.

▪️Reverse T3 (rT3) – Elevated rT3 can indicate impaired T4-to-T3 conversion.

Thyroid antibodies – To rule out autoimmune thyroid disease (like Hashimoto’s).

🩸Other contributing factors to poor T4-to-T3 conversion:
▪️Chronic stress (high cortisol)
▪️Inflammation
▪️Liver dysfunction
▪️Nutrient deficiencies (selenium, zinc, iron, B vitamins)
▪️Certain medications

If your LDL is high and thyroid function is borderline or abnormal, addressing the thyroid may help normalize cholesterol levels—often without needing statins.

Our Story

Sandra studied Natural Medicine with the Australian College of Natural Medicine and completed her studies with a Diploma of Applied Science - Naturopathy and a Practitioner of Herbal Medicine. She also completed a Nutrition, Flower Essences, Kinesiology - Touch for health, Mineral Therapy and Iridology Certificate as part of her studies in 1995. With over 15 years clinical experience, in treating people with various health issues: Digestive disorders, Fertility, High Cholesterol, Immunity, Insomnia & Fatigue to name a few. Sandra went on to work with a vitamin company - Natures Own as a Naturopath and travelled around Australia and overseas, Fiji, Vanuatu, Hong Kong & Dubai conducting introductory Iridology consultations and presented seminars on various health topics. She gained great experience in the field of Iridology during these consultations, as some days were filled with 100 people in the one day! Gaining great exposure and a great interested, she went on the do more studies and learning in the field of Iridology. She completed a course in Physical, Emotional and Essential Iridology Viewing over 20 000 eyes in the last 15 years she has gained incredible experience in the field of Iridology. Iridology is the examination of the iris, the coloured parts of the eye. Every organ corresponds with a section of the iris. Observing markings, signs and discolourations on the iris surface, around the iris rim and pupil edge can indicate inherited weaknesses and strengths. Iridology can not diagnose a disease, however, it can detect underlying signs of developing symptoms at an early stage. Various options can then be explored in individualising a health care plan to make changes in a diet and lifestyle as a preventative measure. Naturopathy utilises natural medicines derived from herbs and nutrients, coupled with supportive advice regarding diet, exercise, lifestyle and relaxation techniques. Consultations are individually geared to treat the person in a holistic manner. Sandra is available for private consultations in Co. Limerick Knocklong
