Attention to menopause and acupuncture
Exciting Developments!
Firstly: Acupuncture in Medical Menopause Guideline
In the official medical guidelines for menopause, it is stated that acupuncture is a good method to use for menopausal symptoms. Gynecologists are taking note of this and referring women to acupuncturists. That's music to our ears!
Secondly: Acupuncture in the online Women's Guide
In the first online magazine Women's Guide, created by two gynecologists, acupuncturist Gilles Stoop explains how Traditional Chinese Medicine, of which acupuncture is a part, is used to address menopausal symptoms. And with good results. So, don't continue to endure these discomforts that are considered 'normal'. Not at all, we take action! With acupuncture, Chinese herbs, and advice on diet and lifestyle, you can regain balance.
Gynecologists Launch Menopause Platform
Wilma Smit and Pauline Ottervanger are both gynecologists specialized in menopause and everything related to it. They have set up the website Women's Guide.nl, together with Miranda Domburg, an entrepreneur, to bring together knowledge about menopause for individuals and businesses.
For companies?
Yes, because the impact of menopause in the workplace is significant. Nearly 35% of sick leave among women aged 45 to 60 is caused by symptoms directly related to menopause. When Miranda Domburg discovered this, she decided to focus on spreading knowledge about this topic, which coincided with the plans of Wilma and Pauline.
