Thanks for the shoutout Madeline Darcy! What would healthcare (and healthcare costs) look like if we didn't just get a prescription for medication but we also got a prescription for lifestyle interventions and engaging tools to help us on our journey? That's why we're building Wellen.

Our team is always thinking about how to share Wellen and help more women age actively. Gifting is the latest! Do you know someone over 50 who could benefit from improved balance? Posture? Strength?

“It’s really difficult to overstate just how much menopause affects our physical and mental well-being.” Unfortunately, this includes losing up to 10% of bone mass in the first five years after menopause. That’s one of the reasons we interviewed Jacqueline Giannelli RN, MSN, FNP-BC, NCMP, Founding Nurse Practitioner of Elektra Health. As we wrap up World Menopause Awareness Month, we’re sharing Jackie’s interview to shed light on the various aspects of menopause and provide valuable insights for women navigating this significant life transition. https://lnkd.in/eiFFw5yY 

A diagnosis of osteoporosis can be scary. This is exactly why we created Wellen—to provide exercise that is safe and effective for 54 million Americans with low bone density. #customertestimonial #realcustomer #osteoporosis

How does someone know if they have low bone density and are at an increased risk of fracture? A DXA scan is the gold standard tool for measuring bone density at the hip, spine, and wrist. At Wellen, we're giving people the resources they need to live healthy lives with healthy bones. We've covered everything you need to know about DXA scans in our latest Well Guide article.

"Not just your grandmother's disease." In fact, 1 in 2 women over the age of 50 will break a bone due to #osteoporosis, and building strong bones begins long before you turn 50. This recent article from The Washington Post highlights how prevention can play a role in changing these stats, and how exercise can be a component of that. At Wellen, we've created an exercise program specifically designed for women to build bone and prevent fractures. https://lnkd.in/eszti_dh
