Perimenopause Class to Start April 29: Register Now

Perimenopause is a natural life transition leading up to the end of your period. While it can bring many positive changes to your life, it can be also a time of challenge. Many people experience symptoms that range from night sweats and hot flashes to problems sleeping and anxiety.

This 3-part workshop, led by Krista Bernhoft Margolis, a women’s health and functional medicine/holistic nurse practitioner, will offer insight into positive steps you can take to improve your journey through this time of change.

In a safe, nurturing environment with other like-minded women, you will:

  • Learn about western medicine approaches that can include hormone therapies, bone density screenings, and heart health recommendations
  • Discover how such complementary therapies as meditation, acupuncture, herbs, and stress reduction can support you
  • Explore the roles of nutrition and sleep
