🌸 Today is the 16th annual World Menopause Day!🌸
At KRC, we want to acknowledge and support the wāhine in our community who may be experiencing the effects of perimenopause or menopause.
Our clinicians regularly chat with clients about the common signs and symptoms that can show up during this stage of life. In our setting, we often see:
* Muscle and joint aches or stiffness
* Tendinitis or plantar fasciitis
* Changes in sleep patterns
* Hot flushes
* Loss of strength
💆♀️ Did you know that Acupuncture can provide relief or marked improvement for some menopause symptoms?
Learn more about the research behind it here 👉 [Evidence Based Acupuncture: Menopause](https://www.evidencebasedacupuncture.org/acupuncture-menopause/).
✨ Struggling with anxiety, increased stress, or muscle and joint pain?
Our massage therapists can tailor your session to your needs — from gentle relaxation massage to help you unwind, to more targeted pressure to release tension and reset your body.
🌿 Considering supplements?
If you’re not ready to trial hormone therapy (or you’d like to explore plant-derived alternatives), we have a range of high-quality products designed to support your body through this transition.
**Metagenics Estrovera Tablets**
Formulated with clinically proven proprietary extract ERr 731®:
✅ Relieves hot flushes & irritability
✅ Reduces restless sleep & fatigue
✅ Supports healthy libido
✅ Decreases vaginal dryness
✅ Reduces mild joint & muscle pain
**Metagenics CardioX**
(as recommended by Lara Briden’s Hormone Repair Manual)
✅ Supports healthy blood pressure & cardiovascular health
✅ Maintains healthy homocysteine levels
✅ Includes clinically trialled magnesium & taurine
✅ Chromium supports healthy glucose metabolism
🩷 We’ll have a limited supply of both products in stock by the end of the week.
📚 Want to learn more about perimenopause and menopause?
Here are two excellent, easy-to-read books we highly recommend:
* *Hormone Repair Manual: Every Woman’s Guide to Healthy Hormones After 40* — Lara Briden
* *Next Level: Your Guide to Kicking Ass, Feeling Great, and Crushing Goals Through Menopause and Beyond* — Stacy T. Sims
(You can often find both books at the clinic if you’d like to have a look!)
At KRC, we’re passionate about helping our community feel supported and empowered through every stage of their health journey. 💪
