Peri-Menopause and Menopause

Do you feel betrayed by your body?

The mood swings that strain your most important relationships. Night sweats that leave you unrested and exhausted. The body aches and joint pain that just popped up out of no where. The mental fog that affects your professional performance. Weight gain that accumulates despite your best efforts.

Are these unwanted symptoms making you feel like you’ve
lost control of your body and mind?

Peri-Menopause &
Menopause

Do you feel betrayed by your body?

The mood swings that strain your most important relationships. Night sweats that leave you unrested and exhausted. The body aches and joint pain that just popped up out of no where. The mental fog that affects your professional performance. Weight gain that accumulates despite your best efforts.

Are these unwanted symptoms making you feel like you’ve lost control of your body and mind?

When You’re Told to “Just Deal With It” — You Deserve Better

Conventional medicine often trivializes the very real symptoms women experience during perimenopause and menopause. Being told it’s “just your age” or something you simply have to endure, is not acceptable—especially when your quality of life is suffering.

The transition through perimenopause and menopause is not just about hot flashes and night sweats. It is a complex hormonal shift that impacts nearly every system in your body. When symptoms are dismissed or treated with one-size-fits-all solutions, the deeper imbalances driving or exacerbating them are often missed.

At Healing Traditions Integrated Wellness, we take a different approach—one that listens, investigates, and treats the whole picture.

To uncover the patterns driving your specific symptoms

Patient Stories of Transformation

I was referred to Dr. Gina by my neighbor who had been going to her for years. My neighbor and I would go on walks where we would discuss her treatment with Dr. Gina. I would pick my neighbor's brain every time we would get together, leading me to finally reaching out Healing Traditions Integrated Wellness. Dr. Gina made me feel like I was her only patient, always being so generous with her time and patient with my millions of questions...
Mary P.
My treatments of Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine with Dr. Gina have help me tremendously. I have seen Dr. Gina for several ailments, including a broken elbow, low back injury, Hot flashes, irregular periods, extreme PMS, and everyday health. The treatments to my elbow opened blockages and healed the area in 3 weeks. Orthopedics were amazed and shocked. My hot flashes and PMS have subsided remarkably. Dr. Gina as a practitioner, is a warm, caring and knowledgable physician dedicated to solving her patient's health issues.
Anna H.
I have worked with Dr. Gina for the past 7 years for menopausal issues and hypothyroidism. She was the first one to discover I had an under active thyroid and helped me choose the most appropriate thyroid medication, as well as, guided me on the specific supplements that would further support my thyroid health. She coached me with diet and lifestyle and I learned things from Dr. Gina that no one previously had explained to me. Dr. Gina has such a supportive and compassionate nature to her, listening intently to my every complaint and or worry and always empowering me with education and providing me with actionable steps I can be taking with my health. I would at a loss with my health if it worn't for finding and working with Dr. Gina.

"I was referred to Dr. Gina by my neighbor who had been going to her for years. My neighbor and I would go on walks where we would discuss her treatment with Dr. Gina. I would pick my neighbor's brain every time we would get together, leading me to finally reaching out Healing Traditions Integrated Wellness. Dr. Gina made me feel like I was her only patient, always being so generous with her time and patient with my millions of questions. I first started seeing Dr. Gina for thyroid issues that weren't being fully addressed by my primary care doctor. She recommended I look into different thyroid hormone medication alternatives, which resulted in me finally getting on the right medication which changed so much for me. I finally wasn't waking up feeling like a zombie, never feeling like I could get enough sleep. She also helped me modify my diet and learn how to choose foods that optimized and supported my health, especially my blood sugar which also often tended to be borderline high. Within a year of working with Dr. Gina all my labs normalized to the point my primary doc asked what I had been doing. I of course told him all about Dr. Gina and Healing Traditions. After working with Dr. Gina for two years, my family and I moved out of Colorado for 5 years and then returned in 2021. Once we moved back to Colorado, I immediately booked a consult with Dr. Gina as I had been suffering from all the lovely symptoms that come along with being peri-menopausal. Once again, Dr. Gina put my mind at ease, armed me with information and dispelled all the misinformation surrounding HRT. Like usual, she ran a gamut of labs on me and checked my hormone levels and to no surprise, my hormone levels were tanked. From there, she made a game plan for me and I haven't looked back yet. She has inspired me and empowered me to become my own self advocate which has been worth it's weight in gold. I thought enduring and suffering through peri-menopause was normal and just a part of "getting older". Dr. Gina explained the importance of starting and staying on HRT and that "toughing out" my night sweats, sleepless nights, crazy brain fog and weight gain that came out of no where, was not an option anymore. She taught me that those symptoms were my alarm bells to larger and more complicated issues down the road if I didn't get myself on the proper HRT and support my body was needing at this stage of life. Don't know what I would have done without Dr. Gina all these years."
