Costa del Sol Events

Menopause support Costa del Sol

In March, women on the Costa del Sol who are dealing with the menopause are invited to attend a free one hour seminar in Marbella or Estepona to find out about natural hormone replacement therapy and how it can help to treat the symptoms of menopause.

We are delighted to be working with the Long Life Clinic and La Chispa Magazine to present these useful seminars. They will be presented by Dr. Jean Garant Mendoza, a qualified Doctor and a specialist on hormones and longevity. Dr. Garant is one of the only medical practitioners in Spain to be offering Bioidentical hormones for the treatment of the symptoms of the menopause and he’s passionate about sharing his knowledge with women looking for an alternative to conventional HRT.

The seminars will be perfect for women currently experiencing the menopause or their families who want to learn about the alternative treatments to conventional HRT which are free from side-effects. They would also be suitable for women approaching menopause age who are looking for ways to deal with it when they start experiencing symptoms. It can be a daunting and distressing part of a woman’s life, so it’s best to have all the information you can!

Theatre on the Costa del Sol

If you’re looking for something to keep the kids entertained or simply want to enjoy some culture, there’s a surprising amount of theatre being performed around the Costa del Sol!

In Marbella, the Black Box Theatre is a great little venue which showcases interesting performances in drama, dance and music both in its cafe and the theatre itself. They run courses for children and adults as well and there’s always something going on.

This Saturday they are putting on their first production in English and as part of the ticket price they put on activities for kids before the show which sounds great fun. The production is called A Thousand Cranes and tells the true story of a 12 year old victim of the Hiroshima bomb who starts to suffer from radiation sickness and in order to make herself better tries to fold a thousand paper cranes. It sounds like a moving but inspiring tale and is recommended for children over 7 years old. This show will be performed on 15th, 22nd and 29th January at 5.30pm and tickets are 8€. To reserve your seat call 952 779 172.
