Your Hormones Aren’t Broken – You Just Haven’t Been Heard.

A holistic approach to perimenopause, menopause, and hormone imbalance – for women who want clarity, not confusion.

Our Approach

Many women feel overwhelmed, dismissed, or unsure of how to manage their changing hormones. At Lantern Clinic, we do things differently!

We take a personalised, root-cause approach that looks deeper—beyond symptoms and standard prescriptions. By combining advanced testing with expert guidance on nutrition, lifestyle, and mind-body support, we help you truly understand what your body needs.

It’s about finding your best path to feeling balanced, vibrant, and confident again.

Who We Work With

  • You’re in your 30s, 40s or early 50s and feel your hormones are changing—but no one’s listening.

  • You’ve been told your blood tests are “normal,” but you don’t feel well.

  • You don’t want to be pushed into HRT—but you want to learn about your options including HRT

  • You feel tired, foggy, moody, or flat… and you know something’s off.

  • You want a natural, holistic plan that works with your body—not against it.

You are in the right place!

What Makes Us Different

  • Instead of just managing symptoms, we ask why they’re happening. Root-cause medicine looks beneath the surface—exploring how your hormones, gut, stress, lifestyle, and environment are all connected. This allows us to create a personalised plan that supports lasting healing, not just quick fixes.

  • We use targeted, functional tests to uncover the root causes of hormonal imbalance. This may include DUTCH hormone testing, thyroid panels, or gut microbiome assessments. These insights allow us to tailor your plan with precision—no guesswork, just personalised care based on your unique biochemistry.

  • We use food as medicine, alongside herbal remedies and lifestyle interventions to gently restore balance. From supporting blood sugar and inflammation to nourishing your hormones and gut, every recommendation is grounded in science—and tailored to you.

  • We take time to listen, understand your story, and walk alongside you. You’ll receive ongoing support from a compassionate team who blends clinical expertise with real human connection—because healing happens best when you feel safe, seen, and supported.

  • We believe knowledge is power. You’ll gain a clear understanding of your hormones and how your body works, so you can make informed choices with confidence. No generic advice—just tailored guidance that puts you back in control of your health.
