Health & Wellness

May 1, 2019

This guide is presented in partnership with the businesses featured. We are grateful to their support in helping us provide comprehensive resources to our community.

When do you feel your healthiest? We would be willing to bet that if you do some self-reflection, you will find that it takes more than simply not having a cold or flu keeping you down, to make you feel well. Personally, we know we feel our best when we are caring for ourselves as a WHOLE person. This looks differently to different people, but we know one thing for sure… you deserve to feel WELL.

This guide is a compilation of local resources designed to support your health and wellness in a variety of different ways. Not everything on these lists is for everyone, but whatever it is that helps you feel your healthiest, we encourage you to devote some time and energy to pursuing that support.

Be well, mamas!

Your Wellness Center

There are many reasons women may consider setting up a consultation with the wellness experts at Your Wellness Center. One thing the CMB team has learned from our personal experiences is that you don’t have to settle for feeling like less than your best.

Hormone Replacement Therapy / Sexual Health

Women’s bodies change dramatically during and after pregnancy as hormones shift to create and sustain pregnancy. “In women, there are certainly moments in life that might direct you to have your hormone levels checked. One of the big ones, and it’s mostly in younger women, is postpartum depression. That can be caused by a very low level of progesterone after the pregnancy is over.” – Judy Couch, FNP

Hormone imbalances in new mothers often include the following symptoms: fatigue (more than just having a new baby around), depression, low libido, weight gain, mood swings, anxiety, and irritability.
Post-vaginal childbirth, intimacy with your significant other can be painful. This can be caused by a decrease in estrogen or scar tissue from childbirth.
Post-vaginal birth can also contribute to incontinence, vaginal dryness, and vaginal laxity because the vaginal tissue is stretched and may not be able to return to its pre-childbirth stage (weakened pelvic floor muscles).

Medspa / Beauty

YWC offers a variety of aesthetic treatments perfect for reducing lines and wrinkles from watching over and loving your little ones.

HydraFacials help soothe tired skin
Botox / Dysport relax muscles to ease frown lines
Hair removal safely and effectively eliminates unwanted hair
CoolSculpting reduces fat in your arms, thighs, bra-line, or abs
Chemical Peels remove damaged skin (acne, scars, age spots, wrinkles) for a healthy glow
BBL Acne and Anti-Aging promote youthful skin through the use of broadband light

Weight Loss

If hormone levels (such as thyroid, testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone) are not at the levels they should be, our bodies can’t work efficiently and we struggle to lose weight despite eating healthier and exercising more.

“The thyroid runs your metabolism in every single cell in your body. An “average” number is not good enough, because it often means that your thyroid is not functioning at your optimal level. The panel run by YWC will test your TSH (an often poor indicator of thyroid function), your Free T3 (the most active thyroid hormone), and your Free T4.” – Your Wellness Center

“During my initial consultation about hormone replacement therapy with YWC, I was cautiously optimistic. Judy described how my body had been feeling exactly, simply by referencing my bloodwork. For the first time, I had someone telling me that I didn’t have to be this tired or out-of-sorts all the time, but it truly seemed too good to be true. Within a couple months, I was a believer… a fog had lifted and I haven’t looked back since.” – Sarah
