Menopause & Lymphatic Drainage: A Natural Way to Feel Like Yourself Again

Menopause—it’s a transition that nobody quite prepares you for. One day, you feel fine, and the next, your body seems to be working against you. The bloating, the brain fog, the unexpected weight changes, and the feeling of being ‘puffy’ no matter what you do—it can be exhausting.

But here’s something you might not have considered: your lymphatic system plays a huge role in how you feel during menopause.

Why Does Menopause Make You Feel So… Stuck?
During menopause, oestrogen levels drop, and with it, so does the body’s ability to regulate inflammation and flush out toxins efficiently. You might notice:

 Fluid retention – especially in the belly, face, and legs

 Stiff joints and sluggish digestion – making movement and digestion feel heavier

 Tiredness and low energy – that mid-afternoon slump feels stronger than ever

 Changes in your skin – puffiness, dullness, or a loss of that glow

It’s frustrating, but it’s not just happening to you—this is a common experience for so many women. And this is where lymphatic drainage can make a real difference.

How Lymphatic Drainage Supports Your Body Through Menopause
Lymphatic drainage is a gentle but powerful technique that encourages your body’s natural detox process, helping to reduce swelling, improve circulation, and boost your energy levels. Here’s how it can help:

 Reduces bloating & puffiness – No more feeling ‘puffy’ in the morning or after meals.

 Supports hormone balance – By helping the liver process hormones more efficiently.

 Eases joint pain & stiffness – Say goodbye to waking up feeling creaky.

 Boosts energy levels – Helps to shift that heavy, sluggish feeling.

 Brightens skin & promotes collagen production – Helping you feel fresher and more like yourself.

What My Clients Say
We’ve had so many women walk into our treatment rooms feeling drained, frustrated, and not quite themselves. After just one session, they often say things like:

 “I feel lighter, like something has been unblocked.”

 “My stomach feels flatter, and I didn’t realise how swollen I was!”

 “I actually slept through the night for the first time in ages.”

It’s incredible what a well-functioning lymphatic system can do.
