😭Menopause can contribute to joint and soft tissue changes due to hormonal shifts. Reduced estrogen levels may lead to 🦴 joint pain, stiffness, and changes in connective tissues. These effects can vary among individuals, emphasizing the importance of 👩🏻⚕️ personalized care during this life stage. There isn't a specific "menopausal injury," 💥but women during menopause may be more susceptible to conditions like 🦴osteoporosis, which can increase the risk of ☠️ fractures, particularly in the wrist, hip, and spine. Maintaining 🦴 bone health through 🤸exercise and proper 🥗 nutrition is crucial during this stage. #exercise #meo #menopause #menopausal #perimenopause #aging #women #womenshealth #womenshealthphysio #kylie_rankin_pelvic_physio #kylierankinphysio #help #assistance #rehab #rehabilitation #pivotalphysiotherapyandpilates #northadelaide At Pivotal physiotherapy and Pilates we can help! 📞 83425593 to book assessment. 🔗 Links on link tree https://lnkd.in/geqvs53W

Dr. Lisa Mosconi, an associate professor of neurology and radiology at Weill Cornell Medicine, is pioneering research that may significantly impact women's health globally. As the director of the Women’s Brain Initiative and Alzheimer’s Prevention Program, Dr. Mosconi delves into critical topics affecting women, particularly the intersection of menopause and brain health. In a recent discussion, Dr. Mosconi highlighted several key points: - Menopause has a profound impact on brain health, with changes beginning in its early onset stages. - Historically, there has been a notable lack of research and investment directed towards menopause. - Menopause comprises various stages, including perimenopause, which can be detected through brain scans. - Symptoms such as brain fog and behavioral changes are common during menopause. - Lifestyle factors like exercise, caffeine, sleep, and alcohol consumption play a role in managing menopause symptoms. - There are evolutionary reasons behind menopause, and it has significant emotional impacts. - Early treatment and prevention strategies are crucial for managing menopause-related symptoms. Dr. Mosconi stresses the urgent need for increased awareness and research to better support women's health during menopause. #WomensHealth #Neurology #Menopause #BrainHealth #Research #HealthcareInnovation ---------------------- Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/eBYSrA8j

Pilates Instructor and Personal Trainer helping over worked, over stressed business owners to Feel Fit and Look Fabulous through one to one and group sessions online and in my private gym/studio.
Menopause and bone health Oestrogen is the hormone responsible for so much, during the menopause the decreased levels of oestrogen leads to premature ageing of our skin because of the lack of collagen. Our bone density is also impacted, the building and clearing of bone tissue changes and the bone clearing is more efficient than the bone building, this can lead to osteoporosis in post-menopausal women. How can we help to mitigate this potential bone density reduction? This would hopefully have started in our teenage years. When we are growing our muscles pull on our bones to help build their strength. As bone tissue is laid down the build up is quicker than the clearing of dead tissue. After our menopause the clearing of bone tissue is quicker than the building of the tissue. Resistance type training such as weights, kettle bells, using bands and our body weight can help, as we lift the weights the muscles pull on the bones and help to strengthen the bones as well as the muscles. A good diet with calcium rich foods help to keep our bones strong. The blood needs the calcium so much it will take it from our bones when deficient, regardless of how weak our bones are, this will help the onset of osteoporosis. When using weights, the weight must be appropriate and always take the advice of a healthcare professional or Personal Trainer. #fitnesstraining #weighttraining #fitandfabulous #bonehealth

What is the evidence for exercise and joint pain, does exercise help or increase joint pain? It's a bit of both, of course exercise can lead to injury, but so can getting comfortable on the sofa. It is important to remember the long list of health benefits of keeping active. A 2022 review of the latest evidence ‘Moving Medicine’ concluded that increased levels of physical activity led to reduced levels of joint pain. In cross-sectional studies, those complying with the minimum national physical activity guidelines, were less likely to report joint pain symptoms than those who were sedentary. In both peri- and post-menopausal women, physical activity has been shown to reduce many symptoms of menopause including joint pain. This is such an important message for Women, although injury and soft tissue management can be more challenging, and too much training may lead to injury; like goldilocks, just the right amount of exercise and recovery - will help to reduce joint pain. Our CIMSPA endorsed menopause training program for fitness professionals offers evidence-based education to the people who teach and train menopausal women, ensuring they are following the correct guidance and information from the experts. Are you a #fitnesscoach ? Get ahead of the curve, expand your business, and add another string to your bow.

#DeckTheHormones Day 14,of our Peri& Meno symptom awareness campaign🌲is joint pain. Or more succinctly “All over body pain” 🔦Today we shine the spotlight on sex hormone effects on our musculoskeletal system. This is our bones, ligaments, tendons, intervertebral discs & muscles. 💪Estradiol & progesterone are so important for a healthy musculoskeletal system. Testosterone is less well studied in women but low levels are associated with osteoporosis and female athletes with high levels are often forbidden to compete … 🫣 I have seen so many women over my 25 years of practice with unexplained joint or muscle pain. Often diagnosed as “medically unexplained symptoms ” “fibromyalgia” “chronic pain” … but since prescribing HRT for this distressing symptom I have been amazed how often it goes away 💨 🦴osteoporosis is loss of bone density increasing the risk of fractures when we fall or crush fractures of our spines just from being upright. This loss is fastest at time of menopause. I now recommend all my women get a DEXA if they can at menopause rather than waiting until they’re 70..🐎🚪this should be free! ❤️ Estradiol stops excessive bone turnover and progesterone builds new bone. HRT started close to menopause can prevent osteoporosis and reduces future fracture risk by up to 50% HRT (studied up to the age of 80!!) has been shown to increase bone density by 4% per year 🏋️HRT & resistance training work best together to improve both muscle and bone strength https://lnkd.in/gXG8Cmth The ONERO training programme shows amazing results at reversing osteoporosis 🥗adequate protein, rainbow plant based foods, calcium, magnesium & Vitamin D all provide the ingredients for a fit body Louise Newson A/Prof Erin Morton Rosalind Foster Shauna Watts Royal Osteoporosis Society WellFemme Women's Health Services Cassandra Szoeke Belinda Beck Holistic Physio Fitness Samantha Newman Dr Linda D. #osteoporosis #sarcopenia #perimenopause #menopause #POI #HRT

Recent research has shed light on the effect of menopause on musculoskeletal health. The landmark Study of Women's Health Across the Nation identified muscle pain as one of the most prevalent symptoms during menopause, affecting over 54% of US women aged 40-55. This coincides with a decline in estrogen and testosterone levels, particularly in women experiencing premature menopause (either spontaneous or surgical). A new study reinforces this association, demonstrating a heightened risk of muscle disorders and weakness later in life for those experiencing premature menopause, especially surgical menopause. The study suggests that pain and decline in muscle mass in the late-postmenopause stage was more closely linked to hormone deficiency than to chronologic age. Results of the study are published online today in Menopause, the journal of The Menopause Society.
