Whilst many women receive menopause treatment from their GP, many women find they need more input than can be provided. Many NHS services are unable to provide the level of resources, time and choice that a private menopause clinic can. Specialist menopause services within the NHS are few and far between and often have extremely long waiting lists.
At Menopause Oracle we have the benefit of time to fully assess your symptoms, medical and family history and also to explore other contributory factors that may be exacerbating your symptoms. Our initial consultation is an hour long and we can run blood tests if we feel this is appropriate. The menopause clinic is run within Oracle Clinics in Carlisle, Cumbria alongside Oracle Clinics and Oracle Dental. Oracle Clinics is a fully compliant and professionally regulated setting, operating under the standards of the UK’s regulatory body for healthcare. Our emphasis on safe, evidence-based practice ensures every patient receives expert-led patient care. Whether you’re seeking advice on Bioidentical HRT or managing multiple menopause symptoms, you can trust that your treatment is delivered with the highest clinical standards.
Ness Griffiths, Aesthetics and Menopause Nurse Practitioner - NMC 10E0349E
Ness is passionate about the delivery of menopause care and the importance of ensuring women feel supported in menopause care. She has been qualified for over 12 years and has undertaken numerous menopause specific courses. She is aware of how much of a detrimental impact menopausal symptoms have on women’s lives and how often they go underreported and untreated. At Oracle, we also place a strong focus on mental health and emotional support. Mental health in menopause is a critical issue that often goes unaddressed in general practice, despite its deep impact on mood, self-esteem and relationships. From anxiety and low mood to chronic fatigue and brain fog, Ness understands the emotional toll menopause can take and provides holistic support to help you feel mentally stronger and more balanced.
Whilst treating women for their aesthetics needs, Ness noticed that many of her patients were really struggling through their menopause journey and they felt unsupported – so she started Menopause Oracle to provide an alternative to the conventional services. Ness is an experienced nurse practitioner and prescriber with over 12 years of experience. She has a background in Emergency, Intensive and Primary Care. She has undertaken numerous specialist menopause courses to enable her to safely provide menopause care to her patients and is fully insured to do so. When you choose a certified specialist, you’re choosing a level of care that goes beyond routine appointments. As a menopause expert, Ness is trained to explore not only physical symptoms but also your hormone blood levels, menstrual periods, and medical history in detail. This allows her to build individualised treatment plans with accuracy and insight, offering a level of patient-centred support not always available through NHS care services.

Initial consultation
Your consultation will be 60 minutes and can be face to face or online depending on your preference.

As part of this, we may recommend supporting therapies such as compression therapy or full-body fat loss programmes depending on your unique needs and goals.
