Griffin Hospital in Derby offers free menopause wellness workshop


DERBY - The Griffin Center for Healthy Living will host a new, free health education program to help women care for their well-being throughout menopause.

Women's Health and Menopause is a three-week workshop that helps support metabolic health, manage body composition, and nourish the female body through the menopause journey and beyond. 

This workshop will explain how metabolic changes for women in midlife affect muscle, fat mass, metabolism, and increase risk for osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, weight gain, and diabetes. 

Certified Diabetes Care & Education Specialist Carolyn Gundell, MS, CDCES, will share tips, credible resources regarding long-term, post-menopause health risks, and lifestyle habits every woman in menopause should consider to support healthy weight loss, muscle mass and strength, nutritional status, and metabolic balance.


There will be a session on Tuesdays, July 21 and 28, and Aug. 4 from 4-5:30 p.m. at Griffin Hospital. 

This free wellness program is part of Griffin’s commitment to improve community wellness through free education, guidance and assistance in preventing and managing chronic disease. Griffin’s mission is to empower individuals to make choices that change their lifestyles for the better, and to go beyond caring for individuals when they are not well by building a meaningful relationship, guiding, and coaching them to maximize their quality of life.
