Perimenopause & Beyond…

Supporting the body through all stages of life is important to us at LFA.

Menopause is not a disease. It is the normal transition period in a woman’s life from child-bearing years to post. It is possible to experience this transition and beyond with minimal symptoms. Chinese medicine focuses on aiding the body through all transitory periods — season to season, year after year.

Melissa will meet you where you are at in your post-reproductive time and help you ease into the transition. Melissa is a member of the North American Menopause Society. She is the only acupuncturist in Texas with this distinction.

Making sure you feel comfortable in your body is a high priority for us.
