Beware of False Remedies<br />

Many spas and wellness resorts are keen to embrace previously invisible<br />

menopausal women. This shift towards recognizing the inevitable has<br />

been a long time coming. Women affected seek wellness solutions<br />

and there is no doubt that our industry can help, but, beware of false<br />

remedies. Promising menopause-specific solutions means that is what<br />

is expected - not generic spa offerings rebranded.<br />

Research from a leading UK university on the efficacy of nonpharmaceutical<br />

treatment of menopausal symptoms identified<br />

therapies proven to help to reduce the symptoms.<br />

Menopause differs across ethnicities, for example, black and latina<br />

women are known to have a tougher time as they reach menopause<br />

earlier and have longer transition periods. Hot flashes, often reported<br />

as the most distressing of menopausal symptoms, are experienced for<br />

longer periods by black (10 years) and latina women (8.9 years) than<br />

caucasian women (6.5 years).<br />

The impact of treatments and retreats depends upon the services<br />

offered. Some treatments, such as aromatherapy and acupuncture,<br />

are proven to be effective whilst others, such as reflexology, have no<br />

evidence. At their best, hormonal balancing touch treatments can:<br />

• identify the issues most significant to a guest<br />

• match specialist, luxurious products to the symptoms<br />

• concentrate on the therapies proven to improve the symptoms<br />

• empower and educate guests in effective at-home self-care techniques<br />
