Journal Entry by KeepFit

Today, I want to talk about something every woman will face eventually—menopause. It’s not just a medical phase; it’s a deep transformation. Many of the women I treat feel confused, tired, or even frustrated. But what if we changed the way we looked at menopause? What if we saw it as a powerful time of renewal?

🌸 What Is Menopause, Really?

Menopause marks the end of a woman’s reproductive years. It usually happens between ages 45 and 55. The body stops ovulating, estrogen and progesterone levels drop, and periods stop. But it's not just physical—emotions shift too. Anxiety, insomnia, hot flashes, and mood swings are all common.

It’s like your body is telling you: “Slow down. Listen. Care for yourself.”

🔥 Common Symptoms Women Share With Me

In my practice, I hear many women say:

“I can’t sleep properly anymore.”

“I feel hot for no reason.”

“My mood changes suddenly.”

“I don’t feel like myself.”

These changes can feel scary, especially when we don’t understand them. That’s why it’s so important to talk about them openly.

👐 Natural Support from Traditional Therapies

At Keep-Fit, I use gentle and natural approaches to support women through this phase:

🌿 Acupuncture:

This helps regulate hormone imbalances, calm anxiety, and reduce hot flashes. Many women say they feel “balanced” and “clear” after a session.

🔥 Moxibustion & Cupping:

Moxibustion (using warm herbs) brings warmth to the womb area, eases joint pain, and boosts circulation. Cupping helps release heat and calm the nervous system.

🧴 Herbal Medicine & Massage:

Chinese herbs can support liver and kidney function—key organs during menopause. I also use calming massage to relax the muscles and support sleep.

💆‍♀️ Chiropractic Alignment:

Sometimes, hormonal shifts cause back or joint pain. Gentle adjustments help restore body balance.

✨ A Time to Reconnect with Yourself

Menopause is not the end—it’s a new beginning. A time to discover a deeper sense of self. A time to let go of what no longer serves you. A time to finally put yourself first.

To all women out there: you are strong, beautiful, and wise. Don’t be afraid of this chapter. Embrace it. You’re not alone—I'm here to support you naturally, gently, and with care.
