At Cheshire Lasers Clinic, Sharron Roughton and Tara Shotton provide Reflexology for Menopausal Transition Symptoms.
What is Reflexology?
Reflexology is based on the principle that certain reflex points on the feet are linked to different organs of the body. When the points on the foot are stimulated by massage, it is thought that this then stimulates the corresponding organ.
Reflexology can help manage and improve symptoms during Perimenopause, Menopause, and beyond.
It offers a holistic approach to hormonal regulation and supports women through the natural life cycle. Reflexology is thought to help manage and improve symptoms and support health and general well-being.
Menopause reflexology focuses on key reflexes for common menopausal symptoms. The treatment aims to reduce symptoms on a physical and emotional level.
Reflexology can be helpful for ladies looking for a natural approach to managing their menopausal symptoms and for those on HRT.
You can book a course of treatment as part of your menopause care or you can book a one-off treatment for relaxation or an ongoing management of symptoms.
What is the Perimenopause?
Before menopause, a woman’s periods typically become irregular, which means that periods may be longer or shorter in duration or be lighter or heavier in the amount of flow. During this time, women often experience hot flushes/flashes; these typically last from 30 seconds to 10 minutes. They may be associated with shivering, sweating, and skin reddening. Hot flushes often stop occurring after a year or two. Other symptoms may include poor memory, general aches and pains, vaginal dryness, trouble sleeping, and mood changes, including anxiety. The severity of symptoms varies between women. These symptoms can occur at any time in the perimenopause and can affect women in their 40s until their later 50s and sometimes beyond.
What is the Menopause?
Menopause is the time in most women’s lives when menstrual periods stop permanently, and they are no longer able to bear children. Menopause typically occurs between 49 and 52 years of age. Medical professionals often define menopause as having occurred when a woman has not had any vaginal bleeding for a year. It is due to a decrease in hormone production by the ovaries.
