SHA Wellness Clinic
SHA has well and truly established itself as the most pioneering and luxurious health clinic in Spain, a captivating destination for menopausal women seeking relief. All SHA professionals work entirely with the idea of promoting a healthy lifestyle and healthy ageing.
They have doctors who specialize in studying the individual risks that cause ageing, including genetic factors. There is a team of personal trainers and one of the best fitness equipment. They offer healthy nutrition, which combines the principles of Japanese and Mediterranean diets. Also, there is a Mind & Body team, and the cognitive health team, to help the development of body-mind balance.
Especially in Western countries, quite commonly women who suffer from symptoms caused by menopause undergo hormone replacement therapy. In Eastern medicine however, they treat menopause with a holistic approach, like Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). TCM focuses on an individual’s health condition, tailoring their treatment to their individual needs.
The problem with hormone replacement therapy is that the treatments are generic and don’t necessarily adapt to a women’s individual state. Therefore, in order to realize the safest hormonal therapy replacement possible, at SHA they offer genetic tests that optimise the results and provide security. It’s important to find out which patients would benefit from this treatment and which would be at risk of developing breast or ovarian cancer.
The genetic test carried out by SHA is very useful to advise patients with the use of hormones and the appropriate administration and dosage of these. This study also includes information about nutrigenetics, which provides nutritional recommendations that are very useful to accomplish a better hormonal metabolism.
It’s very important to take nutrition into account when improving our hormone metabolism. The SHA diet has a positive impact when considering this aspect. The benefits of this diet when dealing with metabolic and hormonal syndromes are very promising. In our experience, you can achieve improvements in very little time and with very positive results in the long run. It’s important to always have in mind that “food is your medicine”.
At SHA Wellness Clinic you can follow a programme that minimizes the side effects of menopause and boost health and vitality.
