Struggling With Your Menopause… Help Is At Hand With Functional Medicine
Struggling With Your Menopause… Help Is At Hand With Functional Medicine

Here is a recent testimonial from a patient who was experiencing debilitating symptoms,  as some women do, during her menopause. Her dizziness was keeping her housebound and her belly was swollen as if she were six months pregnant. She was desperately searching for an alternative to the HRT that her doctor was recommending.

“I went to see Rowena when I was experiencing dizziness and exhaustion due to the menopause.  I didn’t want to go on HRT because I really prefer natural medicine.   Rowena talked with me at length about my symptoms – both emotional and physical, and then she recommended blood, urine and saliva tests in order to tailor-make my treatment. I also decided to take DNA tests and hormonal tests in order to discover what guidance I could get about my health, my diet and my lifestyle from those.

Rowena provided a massive amount of information about how my body functions from combining  and analysing the test results. She uncovered what my deficiencies were, how my body was detoxing, for example, in which specific ways I was not functioning efficiently, what supplements I needed to take, and what changes I needed to make so I could improve my health and lifestyle, including dietary advice and reducing stress. She helped me understand my health in ways I had not thought about before.

Although I have always taken lots of supplements I actually needed different ones and higher doses of some of the ones I was taking. And some I discovered that I had been taking, were actually making me unwell.

I feel so much better now and I have to say that Rowena has been endlessly helpful and is clearly very knowledgeable.

I truly believe that the way forward for good health and happiness is through Functional Medicine and the information and help you receive by doing these extensive, easy to do tests is amazing – and the analysis Rowena provides is invaluable.

Try this method of health awareness and health care and you will feel much better and won’t be disappointed… regardless of what symptoms you are looking for support with.”

About Shoshannah

Hi, my name is Shoshannah Phoenix. I work with individuals, couples, and families, especially where things feel complicated, tangled, or hard to make sense of.

My work uniquely blends talking therapy, my own mindscaping, functional medicine, cutting edge genetic testing, and natural holistic solutions to whatever ails you. I help people understand how their nervous system, body, thoughts, emotions, and relationships are connected - and how these patterns shape health, behaviour, and connection over time.

Many of the people I work with have complex or long-standing challenges. They may be living with anxiety, emotional overwhelm, OCD, trauma, chronic stress, complex health issues, neurodivergence, relationship difficulties, or patterns that seem to repeat across generations. Rather than looking at one piece in isolation, I work with the whole picture.

This is gentle, collaborative work. We move at a pace that feels safe and manageable, working with your system rather than pushing it. Whether we are working one-to-one or with couples and families, my role is to help you understand yourself more clearly, feel more regulated and supported, and find a way forward that truly fits you.

I am right here… how can I help you?
