Chronic stress and hormones: Finding Balance

Chronic stress and hormones: Finding Balance

In this episode of 'Moving Through Menopause', I chat to Dr. Sara Poldmae, a practitioner of acupuncture, Chinese, and functional medicine who has been in the field for over 25 years.

We discuss the benefits of combining ancient holistic approaches with modern Western medicine to help women in midlife, focusing on issues like sleep disorders, hormonal imbalances, and stress management.

Dr. Sara emphasises the role of lifestyle changes, especially diet and exercise, in regulating hormones and maintaining overall health.

We discuss the importance of testing in specific scenarios and the importance of individualised care.
