Peri-menopause & menopause

What’s a good age to start preparing for the second stage of your life ?

My advice to women is to take a nurturing approach towards their Bodies, Spirit and Minds from the age of 35 in order to have an easier time of it during our 40’s 50’s and beyond. My aim is to encourage and aid women in this earlier age category - age 35 plus - to really slow down which will help to keep thier hormones in balance, prevention is better than cure.

Body, Spirit, Mind and Emotions

It ain’t just physical - Many women that I see over the age of around 42 start having a wide variety of peri-menopausal symptoms and we will address these together to support your Body, Spirit, Mind and Emotions. My most popular session is 90 min Acupuncture and Mentoring /Coaching where I both educate and treat drawing on Pearls of Wisdom from Chinese Medicine, my own experience and Naturopathy.

My approach is suitable for women on HRT or other medication.

What are the Symptoms of Peri/Meno?

During the menopause/ menopause stage we are seeing more frequent UTI’s, itchy skin, histamine issues, Shoulder issues, irregular periods, flooding, loss of sex drive, emotional and mental overwhelm, Joint problems, dry skin, night sweats, hot flushes, digestive issues bone density loss, exhaustion, weight gain, confusion about the next step in life, a feeling of being lost at sea, isolation, fear as though we are standing at the edge of the precipice. We know there is light - or ‘Second Spring’ but we just aren’t there yet at this Nirvana state. - in fact we are at the other end of the spectrum. Transformation isn’t easy, I can support you through it.

• Acupuncture is wonderful for many of them including:

• Musculoskeletal,

• Anxiety, Stress, Brain Fog, Moodiness, Insomnia,
