Embracing a new phase of life
The transition, also known as menopause, is a phase in every woman's life that comes with various physical and hormonal changes. Although this period is often associated with discomforts such as hot flashes, mood swings, and sleep problems, regular exercise can be a powerful ally in alleviating these symptoms and promoting overall health. bbb health boutique is the place to work on your health during the transition. We have all the knowledge in-house to optimally guide you during this period.
Holistic approach
We work holistically and look at you as a person and your situation. Based on this, we create a plan together and adjust it as needed. This way, you can continue exercising at bbb health boutique in every phase of your life. We offer special tools and advice to guide you optimally through the transition.
Exercising during menopause
Regular exercise can help regulate hormones such as estrogen and progesterone, which fluctuate during menopause. This can, in turn, help reduce hot flashes and night sweats. Exercise stimulates the production of endorphins, the so-called ‘happy hormones.’ Regular exercise helps boost metabolism and maintain a healthy weight. Weight-bearing exercises such as walking, jogging, and strength training can help keep bones strong. Regular physical activity can contribute to better sleep quality by reducing stress and regulating the sleep cycle.
Proper nutrition
Our coaches have the right knowledge to give you advice on nutrition during this period. It is very important to get enough calcium and vitamin D to support your bones. Eating enough protein ensures that you maintain muscle mass. We also provide advice on alcohol and caffeine intake, portion sizes, and vitamins and minerals.
A touch of positivity & sleeping well
Menopause is a period of significant changes, not only physically but also mentally and emotionally. Dealing with these changes can be challenging, but a positive mindset and a healthy approach to your mental well-being can make a big difference.
Sleep problems are a common symptom during menopause, caused by hormonal changes that lead to hot flashes, night sweats, and a disrupted sleep cycle. However, good sleep is essential for your overall health and well-being.
At bbb health boutique, we look at the whole picture, so we also offer support in the areas of sleep and mindset. Additionally, we work closely with dietitians, psychologists, and physiotherapists for extra depth.
