A naturopath’s role during menopause is to support the body in restoring hormonal balance naturally. At Capalaba Natural Health, we do this through a combination of herbal medicine, nutritional supplementation, dietary advice, weight loss and lifestyle changes — all based on your specific symptoms and health goals.
- Identifying the Root Cause of Symptoms
Unlike conventional treatments, which often focus on symptom suppression, naturopathy looks at the root cause of your discomfort. During your initial consultation, a thorough assessment will be carried out to understand your hormone levels, diet, stress response, lifestyle habits, weight and any underlying health concerns.
As a result, your treatment plan will be highly individualised, ensuring the most effective and supportive care possible.
- Natural Hormone Balancing
Herbal medicines such as black cohosh, sage, shatavari, dong quai, and chaste tree have long been used to ease menopausal symptoms. These herbs are known for their ability to mimic or support the body’s own oestrogen and progesterone production.
Moreover, bioavailable nutrients like magnesium, B-vitamins, and omega-3s are often recommended to manage stress, mood fluctuations, and fatigue. These treatments are all carefully selected to suit your individual constitution and medical history.
- Weight Loss
Gaining weight, especially around the midriff, is one of the most common complaints from woman experiencing menopause. At Capalaba Natural Health we specialise in weight loss and have great success in helping woman lose fat and keep it off. Typically we can help most woman, even those going through menopause, lose 1kg of fat per week.
