Perimenopause is part of ‘the menopause’ transition and is a significant time of change in a woman’s life. We can experience many physical and emotional difficulties during this time, some are well known but others aren't.

From irregular periods to mood swings and sleep problems, perimenopause can have a huge impact on our health.

As more women look for natural and holistic ways to take care of their health, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has become more popular for its potential in easing perimenopausal symptoms and improving our wellbeing.

Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine can be used to help with symptoms of perimenopause (and post menopause) issues.

Clearing Space, Making Room for the New

As summer reaches its peak, nature invites expansion, expression, and light. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, this season is governed by the Fire element, associated with the Heart and Small Intestine—organs that guide joy, clarity, and discernment.

When Fire is balanced, we feel open, connected, and inspired. When it’s overloaded, we may feel restless, scattered, or depleted.

This Yin yoga and sound experience offers a nourishing pause within the intensity of summer—a chance to release what no longer serves and create space for what’s ready to emerge as we approach the Lunar New Year.

Through slow, grounding Yin postures, we will gently stimulate the meridian pathways, supporting circulation of Qi and Blood while inviting the nervous system into deep rest.

Longer-held shapes encourage physical release and emotional unwinding, helping to clear stagnation and soften accumulated tension.

Sound will be woven throughout the practice to deepen this process of letting go. Vibrational tones work beyond the thinking mind, guiding the body into a parasympathetic state where restoration, integration, and recalibration can occur.

Sound supports the free flow of energy, helping to settle the Heart, quiet the mind, and create a felt sense of spaciousness.

This is an invitation to clear space—physically, energetically, and emotionally—so you can step into the next cycle with greater ease, clarity, and intention. No striving, no forcing. Just the gentle art of making room for the new.

All levels welcome. No prior experience with Yin or sound healing required.

It's spring! And it is time to get some acupuncture and herbs to help manage your hayfever!

Did you know the World Health Organization (WHO) recognizes acupuncture as a viable complementary therapy for conditions including sinusitis.

WHO’s acupuncture guidelines acknowledge its growing acceptance and use for various respiratory conditions, including rhinosinusitis and allergic rhinitis.

Research cited in related clinical studies highlights acupuncture’s benefits in relieving sinusitis symptoms such as facial pain, nasal congestion, and headaches by stimulating specific points to reduce inflammation and improve sinus drainage.

Acupuncture has been shown to reduce sinusitis-related pain in about 60% of patients, improve nasal airflow, and modulate immune responses and inflammatory processes without serious adverse effects.

It is considered most effective when integrated with conventional therapies and lifestyle adjustments for holistic care.

Hay fever season is creeping up on us, the sneezing has already begun! Relieve symptoms of hayfever with acupuncture and herbs.

Sleep during perimenopause and menopause. Lack of sleep can be one of the most debilitating symptoms during the transition to menopause and post menopause.

Whether you are waking more often in the night, finding it harder to drift off, or feeling less rested in the morning, it can still feel challenging. Not only because you are getting less sleep, but from this you can experience a whole myriad of symptoms.

At Mei Hua Chinese Medicine Clinic, we offer acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine supportive approaches to insomnia. Each treatment is tailored to your individual needs and guided by Classical Chinese medicine principles, with a focus on helping you feel more balanced and supported during this transition.
