Massage Supporting Menopause Course

Every woman will experience Peri menopause/Menopause uniquely and every one of us will have varying symptoms that can affect our everyday wellbeing, and the people around us. The menopause is not an illness but is rather a natural gradual process whereby a woman’s body moves out of childbearing years and aims to head into a liberated and more relaxed phase of life. The transition through peri menopause to menopause and beyond can be a very difficult one.

Nurturing Massage working on the Parasympathetic Nervous System, relaxing and calming the mind, body and soul, can help to reduce the many symptoms women suffer from.
