HRRMC’s second annual Women’s Health Day will be held on Saturday, May 8, from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at the SteamPlant Theater and Event Center, 220 W. Sackett Avenue, Salida.

Ten seminars will be offered throughout the day on topics ranging from “Reproductive Health” and “Treating Pelvic Pain” to “Mood Disorders” and “Yoga for Balance.”  The $15 cost includes a gourmet lunch catered by chef Michelle Gapp.

Keynote speaker Marianne Neifert, M.D. will offer practical strategies for reducing stress to achieve a “Life Balance.” The mother of six adult children—all born during her medical training—she imparts life-affirming, funny, and poignant lessons on parenting and family life, personal growth and self-discovery.

Better known as “Dr. Mom,” Dr. Neifert is a nationally recognized pediatrician, best-selling author and dynamic motivational speaker. She has appeared on CNN, the NBC “Today” show, “Good Morning America,” “20/20,” and other national programs.
