Hormone Balancing/ Replacement

What are hormone balancing procedures for men and women?

Hormonal imbalances occur when there is too much or too little of a hormone in the bloodstream. Because of their essential role in the body, even small hormonal imbalances can cause side effects throughout the body. Hormones are chemicals that are produced by many different glands in the body.

Hormonal imbalances cause many troublesome symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, depression, loss of libido, loss of muscle mass, poor sexual performance, cognitive impairment and poor sleep. There are many other symptoms but these are a few. At Sakoon the Spa, we use only bio-identical hormones for balancing and enhancement.
