Why ongoing support should be part of your menopause policy

“Since your menopause support sessions, I feel far more comfortable talking about my symptoms at work and it’s great to know my employer cares about my wellbeing too.”

This is typical of the feedback we receive about our MenoHealth support sessions and illustrates just how important it is for everyone to be menopause aware. It benefits people getting ready for, going through, or supporting others through menopause. It also benefits companies by ensuring their workforce have the right support so they can take control of their menopause and feel able to give their best at work.

Which is why it was so good to team up with Champion Health who take a personalised approach to workplace wellbeing and are helping their clients to be truly menopause aware.

We also believe in helping people to empower themselves by learning, talking and taking action so they feel in control of their menopause.

The Champion Health Workplace Health Podcasts condense really helpful, practical information into just 12 minutes so if you’re keen to find out more about menopause support, tune in here.

What sets MenoHealth apart, apart from our incredibly knowledgeable and friendly MenoTrainers, is incorporating exercise into our support sessions. Whether it’s simple stretches and strengtheners you can do at your desk, top tips on motivating yourself to move more, or ways to boost bone health, it ensures that physical activity is kept at the top of your menopause tool kit.

This doesn’t just address issues like heart health and preventing mid-life weight gain, it helps with a whole array of menopause symptoms such as fatigue, stress and anxiety, low mood and poor sleep.

“I followed your exercise video on posture and it’s completely changed how I sit at my desk and my neck pain has gone now.”

The combination of information, discussion and exercise really does create a positive impact shown by the great feedback we get week after week.

“I’ve started walking at lunchtimes and feel so much for it. It’s so simple but I just wasn’t prioritising myself so thanks for the motivation.”
