Acupuncture for Perimenopause & Menopause

Supporting Your Next Chapter With Clarity, Calm & Care: Acupuncture for Perimenopause and Menopause | Gold Coast

At Kate Dambach Acupuncture, we offer a whole-person approach to hormonal changes with acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Whether you're in the early stages of perimenopause or navigating the transition of menopause, our treatments are tailored to support your physical, emotional, and hormonal wellbeing.

Acupuncture for Perimenopause

Perimenopause typically begins in a woman’s 40s (though it can begin earlier), marking the years leading up to menopause. During this phase, hormone levels fluctuate, and cycles may become irregular — often bringing with them physical and emotional symptoms.

In TCM, this is seen as the beginning of a transition in the body’s deeper resources, particularly the Kidney Jing, Yin, and Yang, which govern reproductive and hormonal balance.

At our Gold Coast acupuncture clinic, we use acupuncture and Chinese Medicine to support symptoms related to perimenopause, such as:

  • Irregular or heavy menstrual cycles

  • Mood changes, irritability, or anxiety

  • Sleep disturbances

  • Fatigue and brain fog

  • Digestive changes

  • Muscular tension or joint aches

  • A sense of depletion or disconnection

Every treatment is tailored to your unique experience — using the principles of Chinese Medicine to restore flow, ease discomfort, and support resilience during this phase of life.

Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine for Menopause

In TCM, menopause is viewed not as an ending, but as a new beginning — known as the Second Spring. This perspective offers a reframe: an opportunity to reconnect with your inner wisdom and strength.

As menstruation ceases, the focus of treatment shifts to supporting the body in adapting to the new hormonal landscape and protecting long-term vitality.

Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine may support:

  • Hot flushes and night sweats

  • Insomnia or difficulty staying asleep

  • Vaginal dryness or discomfort

  • Emotional changes, including anxiety or low mood

  • Low energy or diminished motivation

  • Feelings of isolation or overwhelm

TCM aims to restore internal harmony and promote a smoother, more empowered transition.

You're Not Alone in This Transition

Our clinic takes a gentle, individualised approach to hormonal support — working with your symptoms, cycle history, constitution, and lifestyle to offer care that’s aligned with your needs.
