Highlighting a unique service - Menopause Awareness Consultation
 

This unique service is offered by Emma Leeming, a Senior Health Advisor at Ragdale Hall, who has trained at the Menopause Institute (part of the Women's Health Department at Leicester Royal Infirmary).

Emma's consultations offer confidential advice in a relaxed and informal environment and the chance to discuss personal circumstances and symptoms.

Topics include diet, osteoporosis and options available to help alleviate symptoms of the menopause including HRT and natural alternatives. An information booklet is given to take away allowing you to digest the information in your own time.

MENOPAUSE AWARENESS CONSULTATION

A very personal consultation individually tailored to meet your needs.

The purpose of this consultation is to provide you with the knowledge and confidence to make informed choices and to take control both physically and emotionally in what can be an extremely challenging and emotional time in your life.

It is not to replace medical advice from your GP.

It will however provide you with an informed and relaxed environment to discuss your personal circumstance and symptoms.

Cholesterol and blood pressure levels are checked along with the opportunity to discuss topics associated with the menopause, such as osteoporosis and weight gain.

Recent guest comments about the sessions:

• "Emma has the exceptional capacity to offer empathy and encouragement. She is extremely knowledgeable and is able to impart information in a readily acceptable way. She is truly inspirational and a great asset to Ragdale."
