That is why we try to do justice to this wholeness in diagnosis and therapy and also include psychological factors (e.g. with the question of occupational or family burdens)”.

COOLING CLOTHING
FIFTY ONE APPAREL – Fifty One Apparel was developed out of a belief in the need for a clothing range for women suffering from menopausal symptoms. Hot flushes can be embarrassing and feel uncomfortable for women and night sweats can lead to sleep disturbances, which in turn lead to lack of focus, energy and motivation. These symptoms can eventually lead to low self-esteem, self-confidence and mood swings.
