Greetings!

Happy 6 Year Anniversary Happy Hormone Cottage!

    I hope you have had a fun summer filled with some time for yourself to relax and enjoy. As I do 3-4 times a year, I'm just keeping in touch to keep you up to date on the latest Cottage happenings.
   To meet our growing needs, we hired our second nurse practitioner in May with the addition of Cathy Roland, WHNP.  We now have a full-time NP at our Kettering office; our Vandalia office on Mondays and Wednesdays, and starting this month, we now have a nurse practitioner for our second day a week at our Mason office. If you live in the Cincinnati or Northern Kentucky area and would like to schedule an appointment at our Mason facility, we now have availability on Mondays and Tuesdays.
   Cathy sent me an email over the summer that made me smile: "May I just tell you how much I LOVE my job! One of my patients said this morning how much she appreciated how well I explained everything to her. She cried because she was so grateful that there was finally a place she could go where she was understood and validated, instead of being ignored and given an antidepressant. I am happy I can give these women hope, love, caring, understanding, reassurance and actual treatment with the highest quality bio-identical and natural products!" Thank you, Cathy. We are lucky to have you on our team!
   We have been keeping track of our clients' progress and I am proud to share that 90% of our clients are feeling better by their 3-month follow up with our nurse practitioners. This is great news for that 90%. But I worry about the 10% who aren't feeling significantly better, because what I know after doing this for the past 6 years is that our women who aren't feeling better on our therapy after the first few months, most likely have other issues going on. So we have developed a strategy to help these clients. You may remember that Jeff recently opened a health center for men, BioMale Center-Preventative Medicine for the 21st Century Male, because for years our clients have demanded a place where their husbands could also go for their best health naturally. BioMale is located in West Chester in the Cincinnati Wellness Center, and has a wonderful lab where they run a plethora of lab tests that are outside the typical standard of care realm. We just brought our phlebotomist, Chelsea, to our Kettering office for blood draws on Thursday mornings.  We can now refer our struggling clients in-house to either our Kettering HHC or the Cincinnati Wellness Center for their lab work (covered by insurance) and a meeting with Jeff, who has an Advanced Fellowship in Functional Medicine. Angela and Cathy round out this follow-up care. The goal and intention is to have every woman who comes to see us get better!

   You may remember that we have on our Kettering and Mason campuses, the FDA-approved innovative Thyroflex machine. You can read more about it on my website underneath "Thyroid Health." This has generated much interest and we are gratified that so many of our clients are feeling better with this technology. But what I know is that our thyroids can not be fixed in a vacuum. We also have to impact our sex hormones and our adrenal glands to more fully treat the whole person. So our policy that we adopted on the counsel of our medical director, Dr David Ellison, is that our clients who use our Thyroflex must also be Happy Hormone Cottage clients who are seeing Angela and Cathy for their optimal hormone balance. In other words, we are not a "thyroid only" facility and are unable to see clients for thyroid only. Thank you for your understanding of our policy.
   I am happy to announce that my foundation-The Women's Health Initiatives Foundation-now also has an office at our Mason Happy Hormone Cottage location. Our big foundation news is to PLEASE SAVE THE DATE FOR OUR SECOND ANNUAL FUNDRAISER ON OCTOBER 3, 7:00-10:00 p.m. at the Centerville Rec Center West. Our goal is to raise money toward a holistic health approach to the prevention and treatment of women's cancers. Come join the fun with music, dancing, fitness demonstrations, healthy hors d'oeuvres, wine & beer, chocolate and a silent auction. Tickets cost $50 per person, click here to buy. We really hope to see you there!
   Finally, I'm happy to announce that the updated, second edition of my book, "Own Your Journey........to Natural Hormone Balance" is out and available on my online store, at each cottage location. Price is $24.95. Check it out and enjoy!

Keep in touch. You matter to us! Have a happy and healthy fall!
Best,
Lyn
