Perimenopause

Perimenopause is the transition leading up to menopause, often beginning in a woman’s 40s. Hormone levels fluctuate, causing symptoms like irregular periods, hot flushes, mood changes, anxiety, sleep problems, brain fog, and fatigue. These can affect daily life and emotional well-being.

Acupuncture offers a natural, drug-free way to ease this transition. It works by calming the nervous system, supporting hormonal balance, and improving circulation.

Many women find that acupuncture reduces hot flushes, improves sleep, lifts mood, and restores a sense of balance.

By treating the body and mind together, acupuncture can help you feel more like yourself again and improve overall well-being. It’s a gentle and effective way to support this important life phase.
