The Miracle Hot Flash Cure
(c) www.1MinuteSolutions.com control of hot flashes
Menopause or “The Change” should be an exciting time in a woman’s life. No more periods, or cramping and bloating. A woman at this stage of life should enjoy having a new sense of self-confidence and purpose.
Unfortunately, these positive changes are often overshadowed by hot flashes. Hot flashes can make you feel like you’re standing (or laying) inside an oven turned all the way up to high. One moment you’re normal, the next, you’re completely drenched in sweat.
For women who suffer from hot flashes, they can be embarrassing, especially if you get one while in public. The discomfort from hot flashes can also prevent you from getting a good night’s sleep.
Women used to routinely take prescribed hormone pills for this condition, but that has quickly fallen out of favor due to the cancer risks.
If you are suffering from hot flashes, you’ll be ecstatic to know that there is a safe, effective and quick way to stop your suffering. It’s called Stellate Ganglion Block.
Stellate Ganglion Block is a treatment that involves having an anesthetic injected directly into the stellate ganglia nerves in your neck. The injection resets your body’s natural thermostat, which in turn, greatly reduces your hot flashes, or completely eliminates them.
For best results, most women undergo two blocks (two injections). Now the idea of having a needle stuck into your neck may make you a bit squeamish, but getting relief from those awful hot flashes sure seem to be worth putting up with a few quick needles pricks.
Other Natural Ways to Control Hot Flashes
Soy – eating soy beans or drinking soy milk can prevent hot flashes.
Lose Weight – dropping a few pounds will minimize your symptoms.
Wear Cotton – cotton is a breathable fabric that isn’t irritating to the body. On the other hand, synthetic fabrics can trigger hot flashes.
How to Stop Your Hot Flashes Quickly
Take a cool shower – jump in the shower and let the cool water flow over you.
Cool your wrists – run cold water over your wrists. This will quickly cool down your body temperature.
Drink a cold beverage – drink a glass of cold water or other cool beverage to bring the temperature down fast.
Stick your head in the freezer – breathing in the arctic air from your freezer is one of the fastest ways to get relief.
