Menopause Workshop: ‘Hormonal Balance’ - Understanding and relieving the symptoms of the menopause.

From around the age of 40, women begin to notice the first hormonal changes, which can also manifest physically, for example in the form of joint pain or mood swings.

If, on the other hand, you are already at this age, you may be familiar with them: physical changes such as sudden weight gain, lower energy levels in everyday life or even hot flushes. All these and other symptoms can occur as a result of changes in hormone production. These symptoms can quickly become a burden and, in some cases, have a negative impact on your quality of life.

In our Menopause Workshop, we combine tried-and-tested treatment methods with expertise on this stage of life. Our two nutrition coaches, Andrea and Doro (Fooduo®), will help you regain your sense of wellbeing during the menopause and therefore invite you to a 3-day ‘Hormone Balance Workshop’ at the Waldhotel Tannenhäuschen.

During your two-night stay, you’ll be well looked after in our restaurant with breakfast and dinner provided, whilst the 3-day Menopause Workshop will teach you everything about the changes your body is going through and how to alleviate symptoms through the right diet during the menopause. In addition, you’ll be taught mindfulness and meditation exercises to help you navigate the menopause with ease. You’ll find an overview of our workshop and details of the coaching approach further down this page.

It is also possible to take part in the workshops as a day-spa guest (without an overnight stay) for €225 per person. Please contact us via our contact form if you’d like to do this.

Procedure - This is what awaits you at the "Hormone Balance Workshop".

At the "Hormone Balance Workshop", you will learn all about the different stages of the menopause - from pre-menopause to post-menopause - and how to alleviate symptoms in each phase.

As a natural alternative to hormone replacement therapy, we support the production of hormones through a healthy and balanced diet as a means of choice. In addition, the topic of relaxation and everyday recovery is addressed and various breathing, meditation and mindfulness exercises are demonstrated.

Your workshop coaches - "Fooduo® nutrition coaching".

Andrea and Dorothee are experts in the field of menopause counselling and call themselves "Fooduo®". They have known each other for over 20 years. They are trained nutrition coaches and counsellors for vegan nutrition, food allergies and gut health. Thanks to their in-depth training, they work on the basis of the latest scientific principles, articles and studies.

The two began working together three years ago and used their combined experience to formulate a holistic counselling concept for all aspects of the menopause. Since then, they have been supporting women in dealing with the menopause and helping them to recognise and alleviate menopausal symptoms. They attach particular importance to their ongoing personal development, taking into account the latest scientific findings.

What helps during the menopause? - Menopause - alleviate symptoms.

During the menopause, also known as the climacteric, women go through a natural phase of life in which the hormone balance in a woman's body changes from a certain age and which is characterised by physical and, in particular, hormonal changes. Various symptoms, complaints and even depression due to the absence of menstruation can have an impact on general well-being and attitude to life.

Mitigating menopausal symptoms, such as hot flushes, should therefore be the focus of attention during the menopause. During this phase of life, many women resort to home remedies, herbal remedies and hormone preparations to alleviate the symptoms. However, a holistic approach that combines diet, exercise and relaxation can be even more helpful.

The menopause is a very individual experience for every woman and there is no one-size-fits-all solution. It is important to listen to your body's signals and give it what is good for it. The right diet, exercise and relaxation are fundamental pillars in dealing with the menopause in women and their symptoms.

The "Hormone Balance" workshop can help you develop a customised approach that meets your personal needs and goals. Andrea and Doro from Fooduo® look forward to guiding you through this transition.

Hormone production and nutrition - Symptoms and complaints in menopausal women.

The menopause is a phase of hormonal change that can lead to various symptoms. One common symptom is sweating, which is often accompanied by hot flushes. This change in a woman's life stage can also increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Eating properly during the menopause can help women to rebalance their hormones. Due to hormonal fluctuations, many women also find it more difficult to lose or maintain their weight during the menopause than before. A balanced diet rich in fruit, vegetables, wholemeal products and lean protein can help to reduce hot flushes, weight gain and other symptoms of the menopause by simple means and prevent a possible oestrogen-dependent disease. To support this, regular moderate exercise, such as long walks or yoga, is recommended.

Stress reduction and vitamin D - Remedy for menopausal symptoms.

Stress can exacerbate menopausal symptoms. A stay in a spa hotel offers the opportunity to relax and reduce stress. You can learn relaxation techniques and reduce stress in a tranquil environment. Hot water treatments such as whirlpools, thermal baths and saunas can help to relieve muscle tension and alleviate pain. Sports such as yoga and Nordic walking or various meditation techniques are effective methods of stress management and relaxation to alleviate menopausal symptoms. Those who consume sufficient phyto-oestrogens (such as soya and linseed), healthy fats, calcium, vitamin D and fibre during the menopause and also ensure a balance of good HDL cholesterol and bad LDL cholesterol can alleviate symptoms.
