The Menopause
These days it certainly feels as though many more women are plagued by all sorts of unpleasant symptoms during the menopause. Whether, because we live in a more open society these problems are spoken about more freely, or whether the stresses of modern living are indeed creating more symptoms, is uncertain. However, increasing numbers of ladies going through the menopause are looking for safe alternatives to HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy). Even when HRT has been prescribed, and has worked effectively, when some women come off it they find that the old symptoms can return. Once again they are having to suffer hot flushes, disrupted sleep, joint pains and the rest...
Acupuncture has been found to be very useful during this phase of a woman's life. Whether it be hot flushes, heavy or irregular menstrual cycles, insomnia, headaches, depression, joint pains or any of the many other symptoms that can be visited upon us at this time, acupuncture may be just the treatment to help and support.
