How it all came to be…

Prioritising Women’s Health

The idea for Lifestyle PeriMenopause came about through continual discussions with friends and colleagues, many going through perimenopause.

Dr Shelley kept getting questions about who would be best to refer women to for a ‘nutritional overhaul’ – but one without the pills, potions and unproven claims.

Realising that her personal journey, reading and insights into perimenopause along with her passion and skills in supporting women adopt new healthy habits put her in the perfect place to develop and offer this service.
