Our Approach
Many women reach perimenopause or menopause feeling overwhelmed, dismissed, or unsure how to navigate the changes happening in their bodies. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.
At Lantern Clinic, we do things differently!
Instead of a quick diagnosis or a standard HRT prescription, we take a personalised, root-cause approach that honours your unique biology.
Through advanced assessments — including DUTCH hormone testing, combined with expert guidance on nutrition, lifestyle, and mind-body balance, we help you finally understand why you feel the way you do.
Dr Kitova-John uses the principles of functional and integrative medicine to support hormone detoxification, metabolic rebalancing, and gut microbiome restoration. The result is a deeper, more comprehensive approach to women’s health — one that helps you regain energy, confidence, vitality, and emotional stability during this important stage of life.
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.
