Join Athena Wellness & Physical Therapy and Vida Women\u2019s Health for an evening at Patagonia in Old Town Alexandria for a screening of The M Factor 2: Before the Pause<\/em>, followed by a panel discussion focused on women\u2019s health.<\/p>\n

The M Factor 2<\/em> explores the often-overlooked experiences of women navigating perimenopause and menopause, challenging the stigma and lack of education surrounding this stage of life while advocating for better, more comprehensive women’s healthcare.<\/p>\n

Following the screening, stay for a conversation with local women\u2019s health experts as they dig deeper into the topics raised in the film, answer your questions, and discuss practical ways women can feel more informed, supported, and empowered throughout perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.<\/p>\n

Whether you’re currently navigating this transition, wondering what may be ahead, or simply want to better understand your body and health, this evening is for you. This is for partners as well so they can learn more about this life transition.<\/p>\n

Come ready to learn, ask questions, connect with other women in the community.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
