Reflexology for Supporting Menopausal Women

What is Reflexology for Menopause ?

There are so many symptoms associated with menopause, however, there is good news, as there are studies showing that reflexology is beneficial for some menopausal symptoms including:

• Reflexology is an effective therapy for sleep disorders and hot flushes in menopause

• Reflexology can be effective in decreasing vasomotor problems and increasing quality of life in the menopausal period

• Foot reflexology technique can be effective for reducing women’s depression during menopause

However, seeing a reflexologist who is trained in Reflexology for Menopause means you will get optimum care. Your therapist will be interested to hear about how menopause is affecting you, as everyone’s experience is very different, and they will want to know about the symptoms you are experiencing as this will allow them to plan their reflexology specifically for you. 

Reflexologists support women not only by offering the reflexology but by maintaining unconditional positive regard, non-judgmental listening, and are able to share knowledge if you want to know more about lifestyle changes. 

I also encourage clients look at additional ways to support this process by looking into the Five Pillars of Menopause

1. Sleep – how can you achieve your 8 hours?

2. Exercise – weight-bearing, strength, flexibility, aerobic and balancing

3. Relaxation – deep relaxation allows the body to heal and repair

4. Diet – which foods will optimise your health?

5. Purpose – find your flow!

For you, it’s a time to pause and reframe

Who do you want to be for the next phase of your life? How do you want to achieve this?
