Why Menopause Affects Your Joints
The Drop in Oestrogen: The Starting Point
With menopause, your oestrogen levels drop, and your entire joint system feels the effects. These hormones stimulate collagen production, maintain joint lubrication, and have a natural anti-inflammatory action.
When they decrease, synovial fluid, this “lubricant” that makes movement easier, becomes scarcer. The result: friction increases, cartilage wears out faster, and pain sets in.
Around 50% of menopausal women report joint pain that affects their everyday mobility.
👉 During this period, collagen loss accelerates; Iconique Collagène® then stands out as targeted support thanks to its type I marine collagen enriched with hyaluronic acid and astaxanthin, helping to maintain joint hydration and strength.
Factors That Make the Situation Worse
- Natural ageing accelerates cartilage wear and weakens bones.
- A sedentary lifestyle weakens the muscles that support your joints.
- Weight gain puts extra pressure on the knees and hips.
This vicious cycle often limits physical activity, which further weakens the muscles and worsens symptoms. Fortunately, natural approaches can break this cycle.
Chiropractic: A Natural Ally Against Pain
Gentle Movements to Free Your Joints
Chiropractic offers a natural alternative to drug-based treatments. Chiropractors use precise manual techniques to restore mobility and ease tension:
- Spinal manipulations: gentle adjustments to realign your spine.
- Joint mobilisation: controlled movements to improve range of motion.
- Muscle release: targeted pressure on tight muscles.
Each session is personalised to your specific needs and to the changes your body goes through during menopause.
Concrete Benefits for Your Daily Life
- Less pain without medication.
- More flexibility day to day.
- Better mobility.
- Prevention of future problems.
👉 To maximise these benefits, Reneva Osteo Active® works in synergy with chiropractic care. Its unique formula of 14 natural ingredients (glucosamine, MSM, turmeric, nettle, Montmorency cherry, etc.) relieves stiffness and inflammation from the first week.
Multiplying the Benefits: The Holistic Approach
On the Plate: Nourish Your Joints
To optimise the effects of chiropractic care, adopt a diet rich in anti-inflammatory nutrients: fatty fish, green vegetables, nuts, seeds, berries…
Also think about calcium (green vegetables, almonds, sesame) and vitamin D (fatty fish, eggs), which support bones and joints.
👉 Absorption of these nutrients also depends on your microbiome: Symbiotic Probiotics®, with its 20 billion multi-strain probiotics, supports a healthy gut flora, reduces bloating, and helps limit chronic inflammation that can be behind certain joint pains.
Movement: Strengthen Without Pain
- Swimming: zero impact, full mobility.
- Yoga: flexibility and muscle strengthening.
- Walking: 30 minutes, 3 times a week is enough.
These activities strengthen the muscles that protect your joints while complementing the effects of chiropractic care.
When Joint Pain Is Part of a Bigger Picture
If your joint pain is accompanied by other symptoms, hot flashes, sleep disturbances, fatigue, mood swings, your body is going through a global hormonal imbalance.
👉 In this case, Harmonie Daily® helps restore balance: its synergy of 12 natural actives works on 48 menopause symptoms, including joint pain, fatigue, and mood disturbances.
Sleep also plays a key role in joint recovery. Restless nights intensify pain and slow tissue regeneration.
👉 For deep rest, Fleur de Minuit® combines 13 natural actives, passionflower, ashwagandha, magnesium, lavender, chamomile, to support falling asleep, extend phases of restorative sleep, and relax the muscles.
Starting Your Chiropractic Care
Finding the Right Practitioner
Choose a certified chiropractor, ideally specialised in women’s health. Consult the directory of the Association Française de Chiropraxie (AFC) or ask your doctor for advice.
What Does a Session Look Like?
First consultation (45 to 60 min):
- Comprehensive medical review
