Treatment for Perimenopause & Menopause
I'm 52. I'm not writing about this from a textbook — I'm in it, and so are most of the women I connect with most in this practice.
Perimenopause and menopause get talked about as a hormone problem, and hormones are part of it — but hot flashes, disrupted sleep, brain fog, and mood
swings are also very real nervous system events. Your HPA axis, the same stress-response system involved in chronic pain, is recalibrating during this
transition, which is part of why symptoms can feel less like "a hormone dip" and more like your whole system is unsettled.
How I approach it
I use a neuroscience-based approach — motor point acupuncture, Pain Reprocessing Therapy, and photobiomodulation alongside traditional technique — to help regulate the nervous system through this transition, not just mask individual symptoms one at a time.
Who this is for
Women who want a clear-eyed, non-dismissive approach to this stage of life —not a wellness pitch, and not being told hot flashes and sleepless nights are just something to tolerate. You don't have to choose between taking this seriously and treating it medically, or connecting with your body as more than a
set of symptoms. I don't think those are in conflict, and I don't think you do either.
What I treat
Hot flashes and night sweats, sleep disruption, brain fog, joint and muscle aches, mood shifts, and general nervous-system dysregulation during perimenopause and menopause.
