Perimenopause & Menopause
As women approach perimenopause/menopause, their bodies gradually transition from producing ample amounts of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone to a slower decline, ultimately reaching a complete halt in hormone production during menopause.
These hormones are essential to overall health, and their decline can lead to a variety of symptoms, such as:
• Weight gain
• Hot flashes, night sweats
• Insomnia, interrupted sleep
• Brain fog, memory loss, migraines
• Fatigue, aching body
• Mood swings, anxiety, irritability, panic attacks
• Low libido
• Depression, dark thoughts
By conducting a thorough health assessment, often complemented by specific testing, Leigh can guide you in identifying the nutrients and lifestyle adjustments essential for supporting your unique needs throughout this beautiful transition.
Utilising the power of herbal medicine, key nutrients and modern scientific research, she will help balance your hormones, neurochemistry and the nervous system.
It is well documented that the sooner we begin nourishing and balancing the body when symptoms arise, the smoother the transition to menopause and beyond.
My goal is to enhance your quality of life, vitality and reduce the risk of chronic disease.
Women deserve to feel their best and maintain optimal health during perimenopause and beyond.
This is where nutrition and lifestyle changes play a key role.
"I started seeing Leigh for sinus issues I had for about 4 years and within a month of treatment, noticed a huge improvement. She is extremely passionate about natural medicine and self healing. She is very thorough in her research and understands that we can’t be perfect all of the time. I have great confidence in her guidance and advice. She is also helping me manage my perimenopause symptoms. “
