Silence is not always golden. Especially when it comes to talking about menopause. For many women, it can feel like navigating a secret, unspoken battle. Like you’re the only one dealing with the hot flashes, the sleepless nights, the sudden, inexplicable rage? Seriously, though, you are not the only one – thousands of women suffer in silence, thinking this is just something they have to “get through.” At Colorado Natural Medicine & Acupuncture, we’re changing that narrative. We see you, we hear you – and we’re here to help you navigate this time with support, knowledge, and real solutions.
Women tend to keep their thoughts to themselves because it feels taboo to talk openly about menopause. They’ve inherited this legacy of stoicism, of pushing through because that’s what the women before them did.
You can break the cycle, though.
At the dog park the other day, I overheard a conversation between two women that turned to menopause. Suddenly, the floodgates opened – like they forgot Mowgli and I were standing there. They were unburdening the hidden stories of night sweats, brain fog, and the sheer frustration of feeling like their bodies were betraying them. It was a powerful reminder of how common these experiences are for the women in my practice and how rarely they talk about them openly.
You’re not crazy. Somehow, I think the myth that you have to be strong and suffer through menopause alone perpetuates in the silence.
As a Naturopathic Doctor, I can tell you: Menopause is a significant hormonal shift, and it deserves a comprehensive, personalized approach. We can’t just brush it off as “part of aging.” We must address the root causes and find solutions that empower you to thrive through each stage of your life.
We understand that every woman’s experience is unique. That’s why we start with comprehensive hormonal testing. For more in-depth testing, we also offer a Hormone Zoomer. We need to understand all of your hormonal landscape to create a targeted plan that addresses your needs.
After functional testing, we can suggest natural solutions, like:
- Herbs and Supplements: We utilize targeted herbs and supplements to naturally balance your hormones and alleviate symptoms like hot flashes, mood swings, and sleep disturbances.
- Lifestyle Optimization: We work with you to create a personalized plan incorporating stress management techniques, nutritional guidance, and adaptable movement practices.
- Empowerment Through Education: Consider supplemental strategies like “Strong and Balanced,” our holistic Menopause Program.
Balancing your hormones doesn’t work if you keep quiet about your symptoms; yet restoring balance is the only way to reclaim your vitality.
