Menopause Awareness

It’s not just hot flushes and night sweats. It’s anxiety, low mood, irritability, rage, tearfulness, brain fog. It’s a time when we need to be there for each other. To support, reassure and empower each other. To learn and understand more about the changes that our bodies are going though.💜

Holistic therapies when used alongside conventional medical techniques can help to manage menopausal and perimenopausal symptoms. Nutritional advice, targeted food strategies, and lifestyle amends can help to keep our hormones in balance. Biomechanics is not only crucial for addressing, chronic pain, digestive issues and other pathologies, but it can also play a significant role in supporting menopause and hormonal imbalance. Aromatherapy, Acupuncture, Reiki, Reflexology, Yoga, Pilates and Massage can all help by reducing stress and anxiety or improving flexibility, stiffness and balance.

Holistic treatments should be used alongside and not in place of conventional medical care.

Throughout your day, check in with your spine...
Are your shoulders creeping up to your ears?
Is your back hunched from your phone or
computer?
* Take a breath.
+ Bring awareness to your spine.

Summer is the season of the Heart, and the
spine is the bridge to strengthening it.
