Perimenopause Support for Women 35–55
Root-Cause Functional Medicine  

If you feel exhausted, anxious, gaining weight, foggy, or simply not like yourself — even though your labs are “normal” — you’re not imagining it.

Your body is changing.
And you deserve real answers.

This stage of life can feel confusing and lonely.
It doesn’t have to be.

Why Perimenopause Is Often Missed

Perimenopause can begin as early as your mid-30s and last up to 10 years. Hormone fluctuations during this stage often go undetected on standard lab work, leaving many women dismissed or misdiagnosed.

My approach uses advanced functional testing and root-cause analysis to uncover what your body is actually asking for — so we can restore balance naturally, not just manage symptoms.

• Advanced functional blood chemistry analysis
• Personalized hormone support protocols
• Root-cause investigation beyond standard labs

Do You Feel Like This?

• Unexplained weight gain

• Brain fog

• Anxiety or mood swings

• Low libido

• Night sweats

• Irregular cycles

• Fatigue

• Sleep disruption

  These are common signs of perimenopause — even when your labs look “normal.” Standard labs often miss subtle hormone and metabolic shifts that occur in perimenopause. I analyze your labs through a functional lens — identifying patterns that traditional doctors often miss.

Meet Dr. Jena

I know how unsettling it can feel when your body begins to change and no one can clearly explain why.

For many women, perimenopause begins quietly — disrupted sleep, mood shifts, weight that won’t budge, a sense of feeling “off.” Too often, they’re told everything looks normal.

This is where I come in.

I specialize in root-cause functional medicine for women navigating perimenopause. I look beyond standard lab ranges, beyond symptom suppression, and beyond one-size-fits-all solutions. My work is about understanding the whole picture of your hormones, stress, metabolism, and life — and helping you feel steady in your body again.

For over 20 years, I have also served families here in Traverse City through prenatal and pediatric chiropractic care. Supporting women through pregnancy, postpartum, and early motherhood has given me a deep respect for the strength and sensitivity of the female body at every stage.

Whether you are walking through perimenopause or preparing to welcome a baby, my approach is the same: thoughtful, personalized, and rooted in listening first.

You deserve to feel understood here.
