- **Event Description**: ? From Surviving to Thriving - Functional Medicine for Moms?

Motherhood changes our bodies in every season of life—from the fourth trimester and sleepless nights with little ones to the hormonal shifts of perimenopause and beyond. Yet many moms find themselves struggling with fatigue, brain fog, stress, mood changes, weight concerns, and other symptoms without clear answers.

Join us as Dr. Melanie Thornton (Doctor of Botanical Medicine, PhD, DBM and Doctor of Natural Medicine, DNM) shares how a functional medicine approach can help moms better understand their health, uncover root causes of common concerns, and support wellness through every stage of motherhood.

Whether you're navigating postpartum recovery, raising young children, balancing family life, or entering perimenopause, this conversation will provide practical insights and encouragement for your health journey.

Melanie is also a devoted follower of Christ and has served as a missionary abroad and currently works in full time ministry. 

✨ Come connect with other moms, learn from a trusted expert, and leave feeling empowered with new tools and understanding.

We'd love to hear from you! What questions would you like Dr. Thornton to address? Drop them in the comments and stay tuned for event details.

All moms are welcome!
