Going through the menopause, from the early stages of perimenopause right through to the post menopausal years, can be a demanding time both physically and emotionally. 

​

We have oestrogen receptors all over our body sending hormonal messages telling the body how to function. When oestrogen declines the messages don’t get through. So it's no wonder we experience such a wide range of symptoms that can make us feel so unwell and out of sorts.

​

For those that choose to, and for whom it is appropriate, HRT can drastically improve your symptoms. Previous research stating that it increases your risk of breast cancer has since been debunked. However, for some, HRT is not an option or they would prefer to manage their menopause more naturally and this is where reflexology comes in. In fact, reflexology can support those taking HRT too.
