Manage Menopause Naturally

17/12/2025

As we approach the holidays, stress is just not a big enough word for all we have to cope with. From present shopping to food shopping, making room for guests, clearing up the work space, family, etc. Stress has a huge affect on us at any time, but especially when going through menopause. If this feels familiar to you, let's have a chat. My type of help comes from over 25 years of experience in the natural health world, as a Naturopath, Acupuncturist and Chiropractor. Let me help you get things under control and give you more control.

December is a busy time of year if you run a household, run a business, and are going through hormonal changes. It's so easy to end the day in the sofa with a nice glass of w**e and some piccies, we are probably all a little guilty of that. And yes, once in a while, it is very nice and comforting there and then and you go to bed with a warm, fuzzy, relaxed feeling. Unfortunately, it's not the message your hormones are receiving. The red w**e, whilst relaxing, can lead to hot flashes, and the nuts overload the liver, especially at night, and especially as most nuts have been fried and packaged for a few months before we get hold of them. And the next day, the hormonal yoyo begins again with that morning coffee - I love coffee - no judgement at all! I try to balance out the coffee with herbal teas especially designed to help keep the liver in check, and eating healthily, especially in the run up to Christmas, when I know I will be enjoying 3 days of debauchery! Any help I can give you for your hormonal ups and downs, please let me know and we can work something out. DM me here and we can have a chat.

If you have always preferred natural medicine and are now confused as to what to do next, remember you still have a choice. It's all about choice. I choose natural medicine first, and then if it isn´t quite dealing with the problem, there is always time to take pills and potions or have surgery. Your mind and body deserve the best. Make an appointment with me to talk it over to decide what is best for you.

I haven´t posted for a while, not because I´m not interested, but because I have been listening, watching, feeling. My conclusion is that there are many ways of helping women with their hormonal problems, whether perimenopausal, postmenopausal. My conclusion is that 99% of the option out there are all reliant on chemical salvation, through pills and creams. Precisley because there are many women who would rather rely on those solutions, because they are relatively quick acting. You see the results quickly, and the fight you have had to be recognised by your doctor, or society has been won. My way of helping is slower, natural, needs you to take responsability by making changes in your life. But I´m not the only one who thinks that this is a longer lasting way of helping you through the chemical changes in your mind and body. My way is an individually crafted path to health and wellness that is long lasting, not reliant on pills and creams, a way that looks upon each woman individually for the help each person needs as they travel their path. If you are interested in this way, please contact me and we can work together to get you back to health. It will take effort, it will take time, but we can get there together. DM me if this path is for you.

I was reflecting the other day on when I first started practicing chiropractic in 2009, pregnant women would come into the practice as they were having backaches and other problems associated with the process of being pregnant. Their doctors would refuse to give them painkillers. So they chose chiropractic as a natural medicine to help with their pain relief. At what point in history did it become ok for pregnant women to ingest drugs? I honestly don't remember. But it is interesting to reflect that nowadays, I get pregnant women coming into the practice and they are on all sorts of medications, from diabetic drugs because they have gestational diabetes, paracetemol because they have backache, enantyum because of pain or anxiety. Times have changed a lot in the last 15 years, but our bodies and our nervous system remain the same. Surely what wasn´t good to take then, should not be good to take now?

I've just pulled up a research paper from 2014 that recorded over 21,000 citations on the poisonous effects of paracetemol. This is considered "old literature". It might be old, but it just goes to show that what is being discussed now in the news, is in fact, old news that was ignored. Maybe, it´s time to start taking responsibility for our actions and our children's health by researching what may or may be dubiously good for you before you take it? If anyone wants to read the article, here is the link.

Purpose: There is a lack of data concerning the evaluation of scientific research productivity in paracetamol poisoning from the world. The purposes of this stu...
