@jeanhailes Women’s Health Week Education Evening, Menopause. Make it Yours with special guest, Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist Charlotte Conlon ~ Last night at The Dao Health, our team held our third intimate education evening for 2024 in celebration of Women’s Health Week. Menopause, Make it Yours was our topic, with our special guest, Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist Charlotte Conlon. We discussed the role of a multi-disciplinary team and the importance of informed choice and knowing your options when it comes to Menopause. Our practitioners wore @camillaandmarc Ovarian Cancer Awareness Tees to support the conversation about Ovarian Cancer and research to make an early detection test a reality. Our Dao Health Practitioner Team shared the role of Acupuncture in a multidisciplinary model of care as a complementary treatment for Menopause. @mollyburtontcm explained the hormonal changes and the four phases of Menopause, @elizabethcullen.thedao discussed the psychological impact of Menopause and the importance of oestrogen for the brain & @clarice_eastern.panacea shared the research and how we put this together in clinical practice. Charlotte (@misspelvichealth) discussed the importance of the pelvic floor and having an assessment, openly discussed the common presentations that come in Menopause and the treatment options to support your quality of life. Thank you Charlotte for sharing your knowledge, and to our guests that came along to be a part of the conversation. Thank you to @tuttofarebeauty, @yes_organics.au, & @ellechemy.com.au for their contributions to our gift bags. All tickets sales will be donated to Jean Hailes for Women’s Health, a national not-for-profit organisation dedicated to creating a healthier future for all women in Australia through targeted research, clinical care and wide-ranging education programs and products. This was our final education evening for 2024, we look forward to seeing you again in 2025 ~ #WomensHealthWeek2024⁠ #YourVoiceYourChoice⁠ ⁠#thedaodoes
@jeanhailes Women's Health Week 2024 ~ 'Your voice, your choice'⁠ ⁠ Day Five, Trust your gut⁠ ⁠ Nutrition is the cornerstone of good health. A balanced diet provides essential nutrients that support overall health, including boosting immunity, maintaining a healthy weight, improving mental health, increasing energy levels, and preventing chronic diseases. It can be overwhelming with all the conflicting information about healthy eating. ⁠ ⁠ Chinese Dietary Therapy is an important modality that complements the manual therapies that are used in the clinical space. Chinese Medicine, encompasses the art of mindful eating, which helps the body to heal, rather than interfering with the healing process, and Dietary Therapy is another tool. At The Dao Health, we love to be mindful of what we fuel our body with as we understand how transformative it can make us feel.⁠ ⁠ Chinese Dietary Therapy includes dietary habits, food and drink, food preparation and cooking. The food we ingest, and the process of digestion all occur in our Spleen and Stomach which is known as the Middle Jiao. To protect the Middle Jiao Qi, dietary habits and the choice of food should conform to seasonal and other changes to be the most effective for the body and other organs.⁠ ⁠ ~ Focus on 80% to be cooked or warm, and 20% can be raw or cold⁠ ⁠ ~ Variety is key, with everything in moderation, but remembering that food is meant to be enjoyed and fulfilling⁠ ⁠ ~ Eating a well-balanced diet that is rich in protein, healthy fats and natural sources of carbohydrates, including a variety of fruits and vegetables (organic if possible), whole grains, lentils, nuts and seeds, high-quality meats, poultry, and seafood.⁠ ⁠ ~ Incorporating the colours of the rainbow⁠ ⁠ ~ Create an individualised approach with your health practitioner⁠ ⁠ ~ Supplementation should always be considered a complementary strategy, not a replacement for a healthy diet⁠ ⁠ #WomensHealthWeek2024⁠ #YourVoiceYourChoice⁠ ⁠#thedaodoes
@jeanhailes Women's Health Week 2024 ~ 'Your voice, your choice'⁠ ⁠ Day Four, Point of Difference⁠ ⁠ Women’s Health is comprehensive. It addresses various aspects of well-being and health across different stages of life and is more than just the menstrual cycle, pregnancy and menopause. Women's Health involves mental health, cardiovascular health, bone health and cancer awareness and prevention.⁠ ⁠ With your voice, now is the time for a change in research and healthcare where the female gender is addressed and the unique health needs, risks and barriers that women face are recognised and actioned. ⁠ ⁠ At The Dao Health, we witness that this is needed in understanding gender differences in pain and learning more about how Menopause affects the body. ⁠ ⁠ Here are four ways to ensure that women’s health is effectively managed with gender-specific issues being adequately addressed:⁠ ⁠ ~ Support Research and Data Collection ⁠ ⁠ Support and fund research that focuses on Women's Health conditions including those that are specific to women or affect them differently than men.⁠ ⁠ ~ Improve Access to Multidisciplinary care⁠ ⁠ Ensure accessible healthcare services as a healthcare community and work towards eliminating financial barriers to accessing multidisciplinary healthcare. At The Dao Health, we launched Australia’s very first community Acupuncture clinic specifically for people who experience Period Pain, Pelvic Pain and/or Endometriosis to improve accessibility to Acupuncture. ⁠ ⁠ ~ Promote Preventive Care & Education⁠ ⁠ Advocate for and provide routine screenings and preventive services such as mammograms, Pap smears, and bone density tests and offer accessible educational resources. ⁠ ⁠ ~ Support Mental Health ⁠ ⁠ Provide integrated mental health services that address conditions and raise awareness about mental health issues and reduce stigma associated with seeking help.⁠ ⁠ #WomensHealthWeek2024⁠ #YourVoiceYourChoice⁠ ⁠#thedaodoes
@jeanhailes Women's Health Week 2024 ~ 'Your voice, your choice'⁠ ⁠ Day Three, Shame and Stigma⁠ ⁠ Together, we can overcome taboos and challenge the uncomfortable in a safe space where we feel supported and heard. It is imperative that shame and stigma are not welcome in women's healthcare to ensure we improve equitable access to patient-centred care. At The Dao Health, we aim to normalise uncomfortable conversations by having open discussions as the more these subjects are talked about, the less taboo they become.⁠ ⁠ Each person can have a different experience with associated Shame and Stigma when it comes to their bodies and symptoms. As a community, it is important that everyone feels safe to have helpful conversations so they can receive the healthcare they need. ⁠ ⁠ Here are three strategies to support reducing the taboo in our community:⁠ ⁠ ~ Education & Awareness ⁠ ⁠ Encourage open conversations about Women’s Health topics including pelvic floor health, painful sex, vulval conditions and STI’s. Start the discussion early by implementing effective sex and menstrual education courses in high school so the next generation understands their bodies as they grow into an adult. Offer these courses to adults as well. ⁠ ⁠ ~ Language Matters⁠ ⁠ Encourage the use of respectful and inclusive language when discussing Women’s Health issues including avoiding terms that could be stigmatising or judgemental. Provide education on the importance of language in shaping societal perceptions as well as reducing stigma. ⁠ ⁠ ~ You are not alone ⁠ ⁠ Encourage awareness of support groups supporting Women’s Health conditions and advocating for change. This is a safe space where individuals can share experiences and tips which helps to reduce feelings of isolation and stigma. As a health practitioner, it is important to be aware of the support groups in the community to refer patients on for community support.⁠ ⁠ #WomensHealthWeek2024⁠ #YourVoiceYourChoice⁠ ⁠#thedaodoes
