Cardiovascular disease, including heart attacks, is the leading cause of death for women in the U.S., with women experiencing a higher risk of death from heart attacks compared to men. Women may experience different symptoms than men, leading to delayed diagnosis and treatment.
This 60 minute zoom workshop will focus on what good heart health is and the steps you can take for better heart health. This workshop will consist of basic anatomy and physiology to understand how our cardiac system works, along with our pulmonary system. We will discuss general exercise regimes and stress reduction techniques to improve our heart health and overall wellness.
