Holistic Hormone Balance for Perimenopause and Menopause

Perimenopause and menopause bring changes for women, but that doesn’t have to mean suffering. Take control of your hormones and get back to enjoying your life.

Does this sound familiar? Your regular menstrual cycle suddenly becomes irregular, unpredictable, and difficult. You feel irritable and angry, or maybe you can’t stop crying. You’re having hot flashes and night sweats. It’s hard to remember things, and you can’t focus. Suddenly everything feels haywire.

All of these are common symptoms during perimenopause. Perimenopause is a phase of life – leading up to menopause itself – during which shifting hormone levels can make your body and mind feel like unknown territory. It can last for several years and isn’t talked about often enough.

If you’re ready to feel like yourself again, I can help. Songbird Acupuncture’s 100% natural therapies offer relief from many common complaints during perimenopause and menopause.

Songbird's safe, effective blend of therapies works for many common issues during perimenopause and menopause, including:

Hot flashes and/or night sweats
Insomnia and restless sleep
Unpredictable menstrual cycles (short, long, or irregular)
Very heavy or very light periods
Severe PMS
Mood swings (irritability, sadness, anxiety)

Migraines
Fatigue
Memory or concentration issues
Weight gain, especially in the midsection
Heart palpitations
Joint pain

Why Songbird's holistic treatments for perimenopause are so powerful...

I awaken your body’s natural healing systems

Your body is designed to support you. It’s very intelligent and never forgets how to heal itself. By encouraging small shifts in your hormone and nervous systems, your body regulates itself, and you get back to ENJOYING your life rather than suffering from nagging or debilitating issues.

I keep it simple

Women in their 40s are often overloaded and busy (I get it). My simple lifestyle and nutritional recommendations, along with targeted natural therapies, address perimenopausal problems quickly and effectively without making you feel overwhelmed.

I address the root cause

When we begin working together, I want to address your symptoms quickly so you feel better. However, my entire process includes finding and treating the actual ROOT CAUSE of any hormone balance issues you’re experiencing so your symptoms not only resolve, but also do not return.

I give you tools to support yourself

I’ll teach you simple, effective tools you can use to further support your body at home, at work, or wherever you are. These tools eliminate physical or emotional discomfort and prevent issues from returning.

I use an all natural approach your doctor may not know about

Your doctor may have told you to wait for menopause or consider hormone therapy. That doesn’t mean there are no other treatments. I find that people who don’t respond well to conventional treatment often respond very well to a natural approach. For women who do need medications, there is NO conflict in combining my therapies with what your doctor recommends.

Here’s how I help you have a smooth, healthy transition through perimenopause and menopause

Root Cause Assessment – You and I will take plenty of time to discuss your story to determine the root cause of any symptoms you’re experiencing.

Acupuncture Reset – Beginning with your first session, I’ll use fast-acting acupuncture protocols that are personalized to address your unique constitution. Weekly acupuncture sessions will focus on regulating your neuroendocrine system and nourishing your entire body so you continue to feel better.

Whole Body Plan of Care – Next, I’ll develop a personalized plan to treat the root cause along with any other symptoms you might be experiencing. Your treatment plan will include one or more of the following therapies: specialized acupuncture techniques, aromatherapy, key herbal medicine or supplements, and relaxation and/or lifestyle tools.

Personalized Nutritional Support – I’ll make sure you have a manageable nutritional plan that supports all of your body’s systems.

Common Questions & Answers

How long does it take to help?

Many people experience improvement in symptoms after their very first treatment, as well as a sense of relaxation and well-being. Followup treatments are tailored to your body’s unique response to help ensure continued and lasting relief.

What about herbs? I don't know if I want to take anything like that.

I’m an experienced herbalist and source herbal medicines carefully with an eye toward safety and good manufacturing. However, your comfort level is my main concern, and if you choose not to take herbs or supplements I’ll absolutely respect your wishes. If you’re already taking things, we can look at how any recommendations I make would interact with your existing protocol.

What if my doctor has prescribed hormone replacement therapy?etary recommendations?

No problem. My approach doesn’t conflict with HRT, and can help relieve issues that may still be bothering you even with hormone supplementation.

Does acupuncture hurt?

No. My acupuncture approach is gentle and pain-free, and my treatment space is comfortable, quiet, and relaxing. Many women fall asleep during treatment and wake refreshed and relaxed.
