Cliovana: The Orgasm Support You Need Right Now

July 19, 2023

cliovana

Excited to share my personal experience and delve into the captivating world of Cliovana, an innovative treatment that has taken the realm of sexual wellness storm. I headed over to Dr. Asandra’s office (he did not perform it, a female practitioner only!)

Imagine: Increased responsiveness leading to more frequent orgasms • Increased responsiveness leading to more intense orgasms • Lubrication…

The process: easy, quick, fun – Felt great. I waited a few weeks to test-run things with my Maude vibrator and happy to say – orgasms are AWESOME.

*Note: typically takes 3 months from the last treatment for full revascularization to occur.

The Science of Cliovana: Nuggets of Knowledge

Sexual health and wellness products have made a lasting impact on millions of love lives all over the world. Unfortunately, many of these treatments and resources have primarily focused on male sexual gratification. [2] Not many treatments are catered to females.

This is alarming because recent students have found that most women are not happy with their sex life. [3] Unfortunately, there is a huge disparity in sexual enjoyment between men and women. Sadly another study found heterosexual women only report orgasming 33 percent of the time. [1] Thankfully Cliovana can help. It is the first and only procedure to focus specifically on regenerating the clitoris to increase sexual enjoyment, sensitivity, and lubrication. Using sound wave technology,

Cliovana stimulates the growth of new blood vessels and nerve endings in the clitoris, which results in increased clitoral sensitivity and responsiveness. In just four sessions spaced a few days apart, women start to feel increased sensitivity immediately after treatment with progressive results showing after subsequent sessions. Best of all, Cliovana is a comforting, enjoyable procedure that only takes a few minutes.

How Cliovana Can Help

Enjoy the pleasures of being intimate again with a Cliovana treatment. This easy, non-invasive procedure has helped women enjoy a healthy sexual life—all with the help of soundwaves.

Other advantages you can experience are:

  • Heightened arousal and lubrication
  • Intensified orgasms with increased frequency
  • Greater overall sexual satisfaction
  • Improved sensitivity of vaginal tissues
  • Simple, non-invasive, non-surgical process
  • No downtime
  • Results can last for up to a year

Schedule a personal consultation with Dr. Asandra and see how Cliovana can stop anti-climatic endings. Or, simply call (424) 213-1118. We are here to help.

Ideal Candidates

Seeking treatment is highly recommended for any woman simply looking to get more out of sexual intimacy—better satisfaction, sensation, and pleasure. If your love life isn’t as fulfilling as it once was, Cliovana is an excellent solution. The pain-free treatment was specifically designed to help with painful sex, decreased lubrication, and infrequent orgasms.

Preparation

Cliovana is an easygoing process that needs very little preparation. The non-invasive procedure allows patients to enjoy a seamless process before, during, and after the procedure. Dr. Asandra only recommends that patients avoid sexual intercourse 24 hours before their Cliovana treatment. On the day of treatment, come to the appointment clean, well-rested, and excited for a new vibrant sex life.

The Cliovana Procedure

Cliovana is a three-step process carried out in four sessions, two the first week; two the second week. Each session lasts about 10 minutes. Patients love the treatment’s completely non-invasive and highly effective nature. Here is what your treatment will look like:

STEP 1: CUPPING

A small suction cup will be placed on the clitoris for two minutes. A gentle, consistent suction helps bring blood vessels and vascularity to the surface of the clitoral area. Patients report feeling a light tapping sensation.

STEP 2: SOUNDWAVE TECHNOLOGY

A device delivers sound waves over the clitoris for four minutes. The vibration deliberately breaks down tissue and stimulates microscopic tissue damage. This helps trigger the body’s natural repairing response and creates new collagen, more blood vessels, and spurs nerve growth that leads to increased sensitivity.

STEP 3: VIBRATION AND SOUNDWAVES

The final step combines vibration and sound waves to enhance results. The applicator is placed over the glans of the clitoris for about two minutes to finalize results to make the clitoral area sensitive.

There is zero downtime associated with Cliovana. After your session, you are free to leave the office and resume your daily life. Some redness in the treated area may appear but will dissipate in a few days.

Patients can continue sexual intercourse immediately after without compromising their results. A better sex life filled with better enjoyment and sensitivity is yours to keep for six months or longer. To maintain results, patients come in for yearly touch-up appointments consisting of only two treatments spaced 3-4 days apart.

Most women are happy to see immediate changes after their first session and continued results are seen with additional sessions.

After learning about the science behind Cliovana, I was captivated by the possibility of revitalizing my intimate wellness and embracing a more youthful state. Seeking the guidance of Dr. Asandra, a renowned expert in the field, I embarked on my Cliovana journey. Dr. Asandra’s expertise and personalized approach instilled confidence in me, assuring me that I was in the hands of a true professional.

Throughout the treatment sessions, I experienced a gradual transformation. Not only did Cliovana enhance my intimate wellness and amplify sensations, but it also boosted my overall self-confidence and satisfaction in life. The rejuvenation process was gentle yet effective, and I am delighted with the results.

If you are considering Cliovana, I wholeheartedly recommend seeking the guidance of Dr. Asandra. With his expertise and commitment to personalized care, Dr. Asandra will ensure that your Cliovana experience is tailored to your unique needs and expectations. Remember, your well-being is a treasure worth investing in. So, embark on your Cliovana journey with confidence and let the transformative power of science unveil a new chapter in your life.

Micropause Is Here Because It’s Not You, It’s Menopause

July 8, 2023

I am thrilled to share my latest company – Micropause™ – Your Daily Dose For Modern Menopause. As the founder of Micropause™, I’ve spent over three decades in the health and wellness industry, and during that time, I’ve tried every supplement, powder, and potion on the market. But when I began to experience the distressing symptoms of perimenopause, I found myself disappointed by the lack of natural, hormone-free relief available.

I’ve always been passionate about using superfoods like functional mushrooms, adaptogenic roots, plants, and herbs and when I turned to these ingredients to see if they could provide me with any relief, I discovered how they could help bolster overall well-being during the perimenopause and menopausal stages of life.

Through trial and error, I developed a daily routine of supplements that helped me find the relief I needed. I was so excited to share my discovery with other women who were also struggling with the same issues. But I knew that when it came to creating a product line, it had to be something easy to use, perfectly dosed, and, most importantly, delicious.

Enter the Micropause™ gummy- the perfect daily dose for modern menopause. I wanted to offer a product that would not only help women manage their symptoms but also encourages them to embrace this new stage of life. We are sexier, wiser, and more powerful than ever, and it’s time to change the conversation around menopause in general.

I want to inspire women to view menopause as an opportunity to re-discover their strength, vitality, and beauty. It’s a time to let go of societal expectations and embrace our unique experiences. I truly believe that Micropause™ can help women feel more in control of their lives during menopause, and I’m excited to be a part of this journey.

Let’s break free from the outdated notion that menopause makes us less relevant or desirable. In fact, we’re thriving more than ever. But let’s face it: we’re also dealing with hot flashes and a host of other surprises that we never saw coming. The lack of open discussion around menopause has left us feeling unprepared and alone.

Enough with the shame and suffering in silence. We’ve all been in situations where we’re sweating through a meeting and having to explain to others that it’s not just nerves. It’s time to change the narrative.

At Micropause™, we offer natural and holistic relief for menopause symptoms, so you can feel like yourself again. We are here to alleviate physical discomfort while redefining this phase of life and celebrating the possibilities it brings. We know our best years are still ahead of us, and we’re ready to embrace them together.

A SPA FOR YOUR DNA: QUANTUM CLINIC

Quantum Clinic is a cutting-edge wellness center located in Elysian Valley. The clinic was founded by Dr. Maria Ramos and Dr. Katelyn Lehman, two psychologists with expertise in treating trauma, addiction, and stress. The Quantum Clinic offers a range of innovative treatments that are designed to promote deep cellular resonance and heart-brain coherence and to empower individuals to transform themselves from the inside out.

The mission of Quantum Clinic is to provide a place to unplug and tune in. “When you are empowered with the tools to reverse stress and connect to your inner wisdom, everything changes,” states Dr. Maria Ramos. “You become lighter. You show up differently for the task at hand. You deepen your compassion for yourself and others. You gain clarity on your purpose, and courage to fulfill your mission.” 

One of the clinic’s signature treatments is the Scalar Upgrade, which is designed to help individuals heal from trauma and toxic stress, harmonize and clear energetic blocks, and boost their energy levels. This treatment involves the use of scalar waves, which are non-electromagnetic waves that are believed to be capable of penetrating and influencing the body at a cellular level. This is the treatment I chose and it was divine. I look like I had been on a week vacation afterward. It’s one of those experiences you just need to DO.

Another popular treatment at the Quantum Clinic is Floatation REST, which involves floating in a sensory deprivation tank filled with warm saltwater. This treatment has been shown to reduce inflammation, improve performance, increase mental clarity and focus, relieve chronic pain, and promote alpha or theta brainwave shifts.

The Quantum Clinic also offers Frequency Therapy, which is designed to regulate the central nervous system, improve mental processing and flexibility, increase attention and concentration, and promote emotional processing. This treatment involves the use of sound and light frequencies that are believed to influence brainwave activity and promote deep relaxation.

Dr. Ramos and Dr. Lehman are both deeply committed to empowering individuals to take charge of their own healing and transformation. As co-founders of the Quantum Clinic, they have created a safe and supportive environment where individuals can unplug from the stresses of daily life and tune into their inner wisdom.

Dr. Ramos, a veteran of the United States Navy, is particularly interested in researching posttraumatic stress and suicidality in veteran communities. Dr. Lehman, on the other hand, has worked with diverse populations around the world, ranging from people seeking asylum to chief executives across industries.

At the Quantum Clinic, the focus is on empowering individuals to reset their baseline and transform themselves from the inside out. By using evidence-based treatments that are rooted in an understanding of epigenetics and biophysics, the clinic aims to promote deep cellular resonance and heart-brain coherence and to help individuals develop the tools they need to reverse stress and connect with their inner wisdom.

Overall, the Quantum Clinic is a unique and innovative wellness center that offers a range of cutting-edge treatments designed to promote healing and transformation at a deep cellular level. Whether you are looking to heal from trauma, reduce stress and anxiety, or simply tune into your inner wisdom, the Quantum Clinic is a great place to start.
