Alison Menzies

I’m Alison Menzies, founder of Heart Space, a practice based near Eindhoven. My work is grounded in careful listening, presence and attention to the whole person. I aim to create a calm and supportive space where the body has room to settle and recover.

Having experienced significant health and life challenges myself — including fertility struggles, menopause and serious illness — this has deeply shaped the compassionate and grounded way I work.

Is this you?

  • Your body is going through changes and you’re experiencing symptoms that affect your daily life
  • You feel depleted, overwhelmed or less resilient than usual
  • You notice that stress, illness or life events can affect your health
  • You are looking for treatment that is tailored to you rather than just your symptoms

If this resonates with you, we will probably work well together.

Areas I often work with:

Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine may offer support during times of physical, hormonal and emotional change.

Women & Hormonal Health

Support during hormonal transitions such as cycle changes, fertility challenges, perimenopause and menopause.

Stress & Emotional Balance

Support for stress, burnout and emotional pressure affecting the body and nervous system.

Pain & Physical Complaints

Support for pain, tension, fatigue and other physical symptoms connected to imbalance in the body.

How treatment works

Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine take an individualised approach to treatment. We pay attention to both your symptoms and the wider patterns that may be contributing to what you are experiencing.

During a consultation, we take time to understand what you’ve been experiencing — physically, emotionally and in the context of your life. This helps us decide together on an appropriate treatment approach.

Treatment is gentle, attentive and responsive. As treatment unfolds, we pay attention to what changes, what stays the same and what may need a different approach.

Your first appointment

Your first consultation lasts around 75–90 minutes.

We begin with a conversation about your health, current symptoms and the wider context of your life and wellbeing. This helps us understand the patterns behind what you are experiencing.

Depending on the situation, treatment may include Acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, warmth (moxa) or simple supportive suggestions.

Many people find that simply having the space to be listened to carefully is already an important part of the process.
