April is PMDD awareness month!!

I am affected by this medical condition every 2 weeks during luteal phase. Trying to live with pmdd is hard, it's so lonely because nobody seems to understand & because of my mood & behaviours I need to avoid people, little things can make me really angry & stressed, then I cry for days & cant stop!

I am so grateful everyday that I get to do massage therapy as a job! It's the only job that I can now ever do, it helps keep me calm & I love being able to help others.

Massage can be a genuinely helpful tool for managing symptoms of Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder not as a cure, but as a way to ease both physical discomfort and emotional intensity.

🌿 Reduces stress hormones

PMDD is strongly linked to how your body reacts to hormonal changes, especially in terms of mood. Massage lowers cortisol (your main stress hormone) and can increase serotonin and dopamine, chemicals that help stabilize mood. That can mean fewer episodes of anxiety, irritability, or emotional overwhelm.

πŸ’†β€β™€οΈEases muscle tension and pain

Many people with PMDD experience body aches, cramps, or tightness. Massage improves circulation and relaxes muscles, which can:
Reduce abdominal cramping
Relieve lower back pain
Ease headaches or migraines

🧠 Supports nervous system regulation

Massage activates the parasympathetic nervous system (your β€œrest and digest” mode), helping calm the fight-or-flight response. This can make a big difference if PMDD causes:
Panic or agitation
Insomnia

Sensory overload

😴 Improves sleep quality
Sleep disruption is common with PMDD. Massage promotes relaxation and can help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer, which in turn improves mood and resilience the next day.

πŸ’— Encourages body awareness and grounding

PMDD can feel emotionally intense and disconnecting. Massage can help you feel more present in your body, which may reduce feelings of dissociation or emotional spiraling.

Massage is often most helpful during the luteal phase (about 1–2 weeks before your period), when PMDD symptoms typically peak.

⚠️ Important note

Massage works best as part of a broader approach. PMDD is a medical condition, and effective management often includes:

Therapy (especially CBT)

Lifestyle adjustments (sleep, nutrition, exercise)

Sometimes medication (like SSRIs or hormonal treatments)

My story so far ........

In 2007 after working in an office for many years I started a new career as a Youth Worker. In 2013 after completing a HNC in Social Care and SVQ 3 Children and Young People I moved onto work with Looked After and Accommodated Children. Working with young people that have suffered from neglect, abuse and trauma can have an adverse effect on your own emotional well-being. After having complementary therapies myself, which I found reduced my stress levels and improved my mood I started to look into therapies and their healing benefits and decided to do a 2 year diploma course in 2016, the course consisted of 1 year Swedish Massage at Practitioner level and 1 year Clinical Reflexology at Practitioner level. I have been able to use massage techniques with some of the young people that I work with, which I have found has had a calming effect especially with one young boy with autism. I am looking forward to continuing with my personal development and learning new therapies some of which I hope to bring to you all soon.
