World Menopause Day is held every year on 18 October. With that just around the corner, we thought we would answer a question clients often ask us: Can spa treatments help with menopause symptoms? While we’ll never overpromise, and we can’t guarantee that spa treatments will alleviate all menopause symptoms. Some therapies can provide a holistic approach to managing some of the physical and emotional challenges associated with menopause. Read on to discover more.
Can Spa Treatments help with menopause symptoms?
Massage:
- Feel-good therapy: Menopause often brings with it increased stress, anxiety, and mood swings. As our therapists work their magic, blood flow increases, stimulating the release of those feel-good hormones, serotonin and dopamine.
- Say farewell to joint pain: Many women experience muscle aches, joint pain, and headaches during menopause. A good massage will reduce muscle tension and release tightness in muscles and joints.
- Catch some Zzzzs: Massage can promote relaxation and help improve sleep quality, which menopause symptoms like night sweats or anxiety can disrupt.
Facials:
- Get your glow on: Hormonal changes during menopause can lead to dry or sensitive skin. Ultraceuticals have designed their Calming Facial to moisturise, calm, soothe, and reduce sensitivity. Buy yours HERE.
- Get your bounce back: A decline in estrogen levels leads to decreased skin elasticity and firmness. Dermapen Electronic Collagen Induction Therapy can help increase collagen and elastin production, resurface, retexture, and overall skin renewal. For best results we recommend a course of treatments. Prices start at $350 with packages available on request.
Body Rituals:
- Slough for cell turnover: Ever wonder why you get dry, itchy legs? Those hormonal changes are at it again! Our Tropical Paradise Ritual offers a full-body exfoliation using the award-winning Pure Fiji Sugar Scrub, followed by a relaxing massage with exotic oil. Your body is then enveloped with body butter and covered to promote hydration.
Mindfulness and Relaxation:
- Finally, simply stepping through the doors to our beautiful day spa will help you relax. We’re well known for the calming and nurturing environment we offer all our clients.
