Metluma enables women to find balance and live life to the fullest
The Metluma approach enables you to find balance and live life to the fullest
An experienced team
Metluma is a doctor-led initiative that provides innovative yet compassionate team-based care. Collectively, our team of highly qualified health and wellbeing professionals specialising in supporting women and their unique health needs.
Grounded in science and guided by empathy, we offer clinical care (including access to hormonal treatments if needed) alongside alternative therapies, behavioural support, and personalised coaching. It’s all delivered in a connected, holistic framework that empowers women to find clarity, take control of their health, and live life on their terms.
It’s all in the name
Metluma (/’meh-tl-uma/).
Our name is a combination of the two words; mettle – a person’s ability to cope with difficulties, spirit, and resilience and Uma – the mother goddess of splendour and tranquillity.
Our mission is to ensure women are at their best during this time of their life. We do so by helping women to be strong and resilient while feeling supported and nurtured.
A unique time of your life
For many, mid-life can be an empowering time where women know who they are, have more time to themselves, and have achieved financial independence and a balance between work and life. As this is a time to be enjoyed, we want women to feel great and in optimum health without unnecessary peri-/menopause symptoms.
We want to meet women wherever they are on their personal health journey and be a trusted source of information, support, and integrated solutions to enhance women’s quality of life.

Proven results: the Metluma difference
A validated study by UWS funded by the Digital Health CRC highlights the power of our holistic, person-centred approach.
Preliminary findings showed greater self-compassion and acceptance leading to better workplace experience, positive behavioural changes in diet, exercise, and sleep. Improved self-efficacy, empowerment, and symptom control.
Feedback from participants reflects the impact of our trusted, research-backed programs:
"My baseline felt so bad and now after all the changes and talking about it, my baseline health is like up here [motions upwards] and I feel good getting up in the morning"
"There's enough wellness industry information out there and marketing and bits, and I'm a bit sick of that … There was no competition. It was purely honest, raw storytelling. And in a world where there's a lot of misinformation, I appreciated those real stories."
"I appreciated the quality of the information, if that makes sense. I think having the doctor there and the nurse, I think it's really important that that information is valid. It wasn't just a group of women chatting about their experience that you had some backup of research or experiences."
