Biomechanical therapies such as massage (Oliveira 2012) and yoga (Carmody 2012, Cramer 2015) show some benefit in the treatment of hot flashes, night sweats, urinary frequency, depression, and insomnia.
Acupuncture has been shown efficacious in decreasing hot flushes according meta-analysis level data (Chui 2015).

Interested patients should be referred to formally trained TCM practitioners in the community.
