If you’d like a complete overview of homeopathy for menopause as a natural approach, you can explore my comprehensive guide here.

Homeopathy is all about tailoring the treatment to you, taking into account not just the physical symptoms but also how you're feeling emotionally.

Did you know that homeopathy has a good track record in dealing with menopausal symptoms?

A study on the effectiveness of homeopathy shows the success of homeopathic treatments for perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms. The study found that homeopathy was better than a placebo in relieving menopausal symptoms. These symptoms included hot flashes, night sweats, anxiety, mood swings, palpitations, depression, insomnia.

What are your menopausal symptoms? What have you tried to alleviate them?

How do I know which homeopathic remedy is right for me?

Finding the best remedy for your menopausal symptoms is all about finding the right match.

Look for the remedy that mirrors how you're feeling the most. When several remedies seem close, choose the one that resonates most strongly with the your overall picture. If it doesn’t help, another remedy may emerge more clearly afterward.

Do I need to see a homeopath for a prescription or can I self-prescribe?

You may want to self-prescribe and treat yourself. If you’re unsure which remedy is right for you or have tried various remedies and your symptoms have not changed, consider booking a homeopathic consultation.

"From the moment I started my journey with Naziana, my life has transformed in the most positive ways. Dealing with the challenges of menopause, I was plagued by anxiety, restless nights, IBS, hot flushes, and a general sense of unease. Naziana’s expertise in homeopathy has been nothing short of miraculous for me."

My approach to treating menopausal symptoms

In my work with women going through menopause, as well as prescribing the homeopathic remedy that best matches your menopausal symptoms, I also focus on caring for the liver and adrenal glands, which are important for hormone balancing.

As the ovaries slow down, the adrenals help supply small amounts of hormones, and the liver clears away those that are no longer needed.

By nourishing your body with the right foods, stress-reducing habits, and liver and adrenal support homeopathic remedies, symptoms such as hot flashes, fatigue, and mood changes start to ease.

My homeopathic consultation process

The first consultation is an assessment where we go through your symptoms in detail. I like to ask a lot of questions about the menopausal symptoms that you are experiencing.

We then have follow-up appointments every 4-6 weeks. These follow-on treatments are important to ensure gradual progress. In the follow-up appointments, we discuss any changes and how you are feeling. You can read more about what’s included in my Homeopathy for Menopause Treatment packages.

My practical approach offers a natural path through menopause.
