Train Your Menopause

Olivia Ratcliffe is a Chartered Physiotherapist (MSc, MCSP, HCPC) and founder of Train Your Menopause. She set up TYM after watching her mum and many patients go through the perimenopause and menopause with no real support: no clear information, no proactive care, just a system that waits until something breaks before it intervenes.
That gap is what TYM was built to close. The menopause doesn’t just affect hormones and the menstrual cycle. Falling oestrogen also drives changes in musculoskeletal, cardiac and metabolic health, and left unaddressed, these changes compound into long-term decline. Olivia’s mission is to empower women approaching and navigating the perimenopause and menopause to understand their changing bodies, build strength, and protect their long-term health through expert, physiotherapy-led, prevention-focused care.
She’s also completing a PhD researching the impact of the menopause on musculoskeletal health, so the clinical model behind TYM stays grounded in current evidence, not generic wellness advice.
Olivia’s view is simple: menopause is inevitable, decline is not.
