When intimacy feels painful or “off,” it’s not just emotional — it can be hormonal. 💫
Loss of vaginal estrogen can affect comfort, desire, and connection. That’s why we don’t just treat symptoms — we listen, investigate, and address the root cause. 💕

👉 Curious how hormones and metabolism impact intimacy? Let’s explore it together.

Menopause isn’t a sprint to the finish—it’s a marathon that requires thoughtful training. 🏃‍♀️

When therapies are strategically stacked—hormones, nutrition, movement, sleep—they amplify one another. Each one makes the next more effective.

That’s why results at Embarc Wellness don’t fade after a few weeks. They build. They stabilize. They last.

If you’ve been chasing quick fixes that never stick, it might be time to train differently.

😴 Your Sleep Might Be Sabotaging Your Health

Late nights might seem harmless… until they start haunting your health! 🦇

Just one night of poor sleep can spike cortisol — your stress hormone — leading to sugar cravings, slower metabolism, and that “wired but tired” feeling.

Repeat it night after night, and it can set the stage for stubborn weight gain, belly fat, and constant energy crashes.

Your body isn’t meant to run on empty.
Prioritize deep, restorative sleep so your hormones can reset, your cravings calm down, and your energy returns. 🌙

✨ Ready to get your sleep — and your hormones — back in sync?

🌿 Your Period Is a Vital Sign

Did you know your menstrual cycle is considered your fifth vital sign?
Just like your heart rate, blood pressure, and temperature, your period can tell you a lot about your overall health and hormonal balance.

Unfortunately, many women are told that checking hormones isn’t helpful because results are often “normal.” But there’s a big difference between being within range and being in optimal balance.

Knowing whether your hormones fall on the high or low end of “normal” can give valuable insight into mood changes, fatigue, weight fluctuations, sleep, and so much more.

At Embarc Wellness, we believe in understanding your body beyond the basics. We’re happy to order and interpret hormone labs through the lens of optimization — so you can feel your best physically and emotionally.

✨ DM us to schedule your lab collection before your appointment, so when you come in, we can review your results together and create a plan that supports your wellness from the inside out.

🌿 Postpartum is more than healing your body — it’s learning how to feel like you again.

Hormonal changes after birth can deeply influence mood, sleep, and emotional wellbeing. If you’ve felt more anxious, moody, or disconnected, you’re not broken — your body is simply recalibrating.

We’re here to help you find balance and feel supported through every stage of motherhood.
You’re not alone. 💕

May I introduce Allyssa Kittock, PA-C

I’m a Physician Assistant with over 10 years of experience, including seven years in urgent care and three years in surgery. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside patients during both challenging and healing seasons of life, and it’s been an honor to support them through it all.

My greatest joys come from my faith, family, friends, and community—and these values are at the heart of how I practice medicine. I believe that true health goes beyond treating illness; it’s about caring for the whole person—body, mind, and soul. My goal is to partner with you on your journey to feeling your best, helping you achieve balance and wellness in every aspect of your life.

We usually think about weight loss as what we see in the mirror…
But the fat you don’t see may matter even more.

🔥 Visceral fat = deep belly fat around your organs
🍃 Liver fat = “sluggish” liver function

Both can quietly drain energy, disrupt blood sugar, and stall progress.

The good news?
GLP-1 meds like semaglutide + tirzepatide don’t just shrink the number on the scale—they help reduce hidden fat and restore healthier organ function.

At Embarc Wellness, we go beyond surface-level weight loss to support your body from the inside out.
