Menopause Health Check & Lifestyle Treatments
The hormonal changes experienced by women during perimenopause and menopause can often act as a catalyst for other health changes and weight gain. By assessing your physical health our team can ensure timely intervention and support to retain maximum health, from perimenopause to our older years.
Helping to identify potential risk
Menopause Health Check
A leading cause of death in women aged 60 and over is cardiovascular disease which is a disease that affects the heart or blood vessels. Cardiovascular disease causes heart disease, heart attacks, stroke and blood clots.
The hormonal changes associated with both perimenopause and menopause, often acts as a trigger for other physical health changes that significantly increase a woman’s risk of developing Cardiovascular Disease, Type 2 Diabetes and Osteoarthritis. If left undetected or untreated, these changes significantly increase a woman’s risk for poor physical health and premature death in her later years.
These risks can be significantly reduced when detected early and managed. This health check assessment and treatment is a key part of menopause care provided by our team.
Seeking nothing less than total wellness
Lifestyle treatments
Lifestyle treatment is also an essential part of menopause care. Women often struggle with increased weight, tiredness, low energy, poor motivation, and low self-esteem during menopause.
It’s common for women not to have felt able to prioritise their own health and wellbeing for some time. We understand that for many women making lifestyle changes can feel overwhelming and daunting. We recognise that women often need one to one support to assist them to make achievable, long-lasting behaviour changes that will support their health not only in menopause but also in their future years.
Our team of Health Improvement Practitioners and Health and Wellbeing Practitioners have all undertaken specialist behavioural change training to enable them to support women in this important area.
