The Diva Steam, also known as the V-Steam and Yoni Steam, is a remedy that is becoming known today as the forgotten ancient wisdom for women's health/healing and is being fervently revived by women today.
An ancient remedy that had been used for over a millennia before us, the Diva Steam has been known to maintain the health of the uterus, treating everything from painful menses, endometriosis, low libido, UTI's, to infertility. Though this simple process may sound like a miracle remedy, the Diva Steam is an easy and inexpensive treatment for any woman to use on a regular basis within the comfort of HC Wellness Center or at home.

How does the Diva Steam work?
A Diva Steam is done much like a facial, except that in this case, steam rises opening the pores of the skin and the beneficial compounds in the herbs are absorbed through the open pores of the pelvic floor. These tissues are exceptionally porous and absorbent, and the warmth of the steam helps to soften and open them. The herbs medicinal properties, including their oils, are released (due to the special steeping process) and carried to the surface of your skin, and inside , where they are absorbed into the bloodstream and into to the uterus. The herbal steam increases circulation, thins mucus, and cleanses the entire reproductive system, allowing it to shed unnecessary membranes and build-up. The results are varied, and amazing.


Throughout history, many women have found Steams to have the following effects:
* Significantly reduce pain, bloating and exhaustion associated with menstruation.
* Decrease menstrual flow.
* Regulate irregular or absent menstrual cycles.
* Increase fertility.
* Speed healing and tone the reproductive system after birth.
* Treat uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, uterine weakness, uterine prolapse and endometriosis.
* Assist with the repair of a vaginal tear, episiotomy or C-section scar.
* Assist with the healing of hemorrhoids.
* Treat chronic infections (UTI's, Vaginal, Yeast, etc) and works to maintain healthy pH balance.
* Relieve symptoms of menopause.
* Detoxify the womb and remove toxins from the body.


We recommend that you DO NOT steam if any of the following apply to you:
You are pregnant. 
You have an IUD or a coil (you will be asked to sign a waiver if you wish to steam). 
During Menstruation. 
Piercings will need to be removed to avoid burns.
Steaming should not be done if you have any open cuts/wounds/stitches or active herpes breakout.
Steaming should not be done when the body is fighting an illness such as the flu or any other fevered condition.
It is not recommended to steam after waxing or laser hair removal. We recommend waiting 4 days after waxing and 2 weeks after laser hair removal.



Diva Blends: We proudly offer only the best for your health! All of our herbs are Organic & GMO-Free.  Each steam has its own custom blend but may have come in contact with other herbs, as we use the same bowls for blending. Please speak with your consultant if you have any allergy concerns.

A feeling of balance provides an inherent sense of control in life. When prostate health becomes unbalanced, sleep patterns and urinary function are impacted. EQUOLIBRIUM brings balance back to your urinary routine by supporting healthy prostate function and cell replication. Exclusively from Nature’s Sunshine, this unique formula harnesses the power of equol, the only known molecule that binds directly to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) without triggering the side effects often found with other prostate health products.

 

Benefits:

  • Contains equol, the only known molecule clinically shown to bind to DHT to protect the prostate
  • Supports healthy prostate function and urinary flow without side effects
  • Helps improve sleep duration
  • Supports healthy prostate cell replication
* Nature's Sunshine is the exclusive provider of equol for prostate health, in the direct sales industry.

How It Works:

Equolibrium brings balance to your urinary routine by supporting healthy prostate function and cell replication.

Exclusive to Nature’s Sunshine, EQUOLIBRIUM harnesses the power of equol. A powerful antioxidant, equol supports the prostate through a multi-faceted approach. First, equol binds directly to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) to prevent it from binding to receptor sites in the prostate. Equol’s unique DHT binding ability makes it the only known molecule that protects the prostate without triggering the side effects that can be caused by enzyme-blocking products.

Ingredients:

6 mg Equol per capsule.

Recommended Use:

Take 1 capsule twice daily. Best results seen after 3–6 months of use.

Complimentary Products:

  • Men’s Formula w/ Lycopene
  • PS II
  • Saw Palmetto
  • Herbal Pumpkin

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):

WHAT IS EQUOL?
Equol is a naturally occurring flavonoid found
in many plants and commonly found in soy. It
is a powerful antioxidant. Nature’s Sunshine’s
EQUOLIBRIUM uses a nature-identical source of
equol derived from non-GMO daidzein. 

WHY IS BINDING TO DHT BETTER THAN BLOCKING
THE FORMATION OF DHT ALTOGETHER?
Many other prostate products work by blocking the
5-alpha reductase enzyme, which plays a key role
in the conversion of testosterone to DHT. This is
an effective way to prevent the formation of DHT,
however it also prevents this important enzyme from
completing numerous other beneficial tasks in the
body, which can lead to negative side effects.

CAN I TAKE EQUOLIBRIUM WHILE I’M
TAKING A PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION
FOR PROSTATE HEALTH ?
As with all nutritional supplements, we recommend you
consult your physician prior to taking EQUOLIBRIUM.

IS THERE A MINIMUM AGE FOR USING
THIS PRODUCT?
No. EQUOLIBRIUM can be used by men of
any age who need prostate support.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO SEE RESULTS?
As with most supplements, results can take time as the
active ingredients perform their functions in the body.
Every man’s body chemistry is different, and some men
may notice results sooner than others. Although some
men may notice benefits in as little as 4–6 weeks, best
results are typically seen after 3–6 months of use.
