Holistic self-healing for women – including case studies, exercises, visualisations, and many practical tips.

Every illness has a message. Whether you suffer from pre-menstrual tension, fibroids, fertility problems or menopausal complaints – each symptom is telling you something you should start paying attention to. Heide Fischer is a doctor with almost thirty years experience approaching women’s health from a holistic perspective. In this book, she presents us with case studies to illustrate the psychosomatic causes at the root of a variety of complaints, and explains exactly what women can learn from their illnesses. She gives advice that will help every woman understand the underlying causes of her symptoms, along with practical measures for self-help and self-healing.

Heide Fischer studied medicine at Heidelberg University before becoming a general practitioner with her own practice in Freiburg. She is co-founder of the Women’s Health Movement in Germany, and gives lectures and instruction on women’s health and naturopathy in gynaecology and obstetrics. 2004 saw the appearance of her „Book of Women’s Health”, and in 2006 „Healing plants for Women” appeared, both of which are long-term bestsellers.
