Menopausal (Menopause)
Menopause is a natural life transition, but the symptoms that come with it can feel challenging, confusing, and at times exhausting. Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) have been used for thousands of years to support women through hormonal and life-stage changes, offering care that is gentle, individualised, and deeply supportive.
Modern research shows that acupuncture can be a safe and effective way to ease menopausal symptoms, with minimal side effects when delivered by a qualified practitioner. Treatment works by supporting the body’s natural regulatory systems—helping to calm the nervous system, encourage healthy circulation, and gently restore balance. Many women experience improvements in hot flushes, night sweats, sleep quality, mood, and anxiety, often alongside a greater sense of calm and wellbeing.
As a drug-free approach, acupuncture can be especially comforting for women who are unable to use hormone replacement therapy (HRT), are experiencing unwanted side effects, or simply wish to support their health in a more natural way.
A gentle option for needle-sensitive clients
If you feel nervous about needles, Laser Acupuncture offers a kind and effective alternative. This needle-free treatment uses low-level laser light to stimulate acupuncture points without breaking the skin. It is painless, non-invasive, and deeply relaxing—making it ideal for those who are sensitive, anxious, or prefer a softer approach to treatment.
Menopausal symptoms that may be supported with acupuncture include:
- Hot flushes and night sweats
- Poor sleep and insomnia
- Anxiety, low mood, or emotional overwhelm
- Depression
- Fatigue and low energy
- Mood swings and irritability
- Headaches and migraines
- Palpitations
- General aches and body discomfort
In my practice I focus on caring for the whole person, not just managing individual symptoms. Treatments are tailored to your unique experience, with the aim of gently supporting balance, resilience, and overall wellbeing—so you can move through the menopausal transition feeling more comfortable, supported, and at ease.
