Wide awake at 3am again? 👀

You went to bed exhausted. You fell asleep perfectly well.

Then 3am arrives and suddenly your brain thinks it is the ideal time to revisit a conversation from 2007, worry about tomorrow and mentally reorganise the kitchen cupboards.

If this has started happening during perimenopause, you are definitely not alone.

But why does it happen?

If you have unwillingly joined the 3am ceiling staring club, have a read.

👉 Why Do I Keep Waking Up at 3am During Perimenopause?

Perimenopause and menopause can affect so much more than your periods.

Poor sleep • anxiety • low energy • hot flushes • headaches • aching joints

🌿 Acupuncture offers a calm, individual approach, with treatment tailored to you and the symptoms you’re experiencing.

I have a few appointments available this week so grab them whilst you can.

I combine over 𝟭𝟱 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲, advanced fertility and women's health training, and a detailed understanding of hormone testing with acupuncture to help you get to the root cause—not just manage symptoms.

If you're looking for answers as well as treatment, I'd love to help.

🤎 Do you spot for a few days before or after your period?

Many women think it's completely normal—but did you know it can sometimes be a sign of low progesterone?

Low progesterone doesn't just affect your menstrual cycle; it can also impact on your chances of conceiving and retaining a pregnancy, whether you're trying naturally or through IVF.

In my latest blog, I explain:
✨ The symptoms of low progesterone
✨ Why it's so important for fertility
✨ How it affects implantation
✨ How acupuncture may help support healthy progesterone levels naturally

If you're trying for a baby, this is well worth a read.

𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭... 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐡𝐚𝐲𝐟𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐝.

This is why I never get tired of doing what I do.

A recent review:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "After years of suffering with hayfever, a friend recommended Ilana. 𝐈 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐦𝐲 𝐡𝐚𝐲𝐟𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐝. When it came back this year, I booked in again and exactly the same thing happened. I honestly can't believe how effective it's been."

Sometimes I can't believe how much these tiny little needles can help people either! It still amazes me after all these years. Every person responds differently, but reading reviews like this never gets old. 💚

If hayfever is taking over your summer, why not see if acupuncture could help you too?
