Perimenopause
Perimenopause is the transitional phase leading up to menopause, often marked by fluctuating hormones and shifting bodily rhythms. This stage can begin years before menopause and may involve changes in mood, energy, sleep, and cycle regularity. Many people feel unprepared for how disruptive this transition can be. While conventional care may focus on symptom relief, holistic and integrative approaches often support the body through this transition by addressing stress, nervous system balance, and lifestyle factors. This page explores non-diagnostic support options for perimenopause.
What This Condition Often Feels Like

When Conventional Care Isn’t Enough
