Wellness Workshops

With so many conflicting opinions about health and wellness in the media today, it’s tough to know what to believe and how it applies to you. That’s why I’ve developed a variety of workshops, focusing on popular health and wellness topics.

During each session, we’ll review the latest research, then discuss practical strategies to help achieve your goals. The workshops are fun and informative and feedback from participants has been very positive!
