Carolyn Torkelson MD joins host Ken Haglind on “Living Healthy and Aging Well” radio show to discuss her book “Beyond Menopause, New Pathways to Holistic Health. Women of postmenopausal age want to remain healthy, vital, and engaged yet they are often overlooked in the healthcare system. Her book brings to light the unique healthcare needs of postmenopausal women. It offers women integrative-holistic approaches that bridge the gap between conventional medicine and systems of holistic healing. Integrative strategies are highlighted in the context of common health conditions, including anxiety, fatigue, sleep disturbance, sexual health, weight concerns, bone health, and brain health along with up-to-date information about the use of hormone therapy during the menopause transition. Dr. Torkelson will share why it is important to create an adaptable network of practitioners to accommodate your changing needs that she calls a “web of wellness”. Beyond Menopause brings a fresh perspective to the mental, physical, and spiritual elements of holistic living to guide women on their pathway to optimal health and well-being.
