We're excited to share a new women’s strength training class launching at Top Fuel Valparaiso that is specifically designed for women in perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause.

I connected with Chris @shimley14 , owner and coach at Top Fuel, to discuss the unique physiological needs of women in this stage of life. I was able to provide medical input on the importance of muscle development and strength training during hormonal transition, and this class was thoughtfully built with that population in mind.

This is not a CrossFit class. It is a women-only, semi-private strength training course focused on building a strong foundation for lifting and movement, with hands-on coaching in a supportive setting.

Class details:

Starts February 23

Mondays & Wednesdays

10:00–11:00 AM

6-week course

Limited to 6–8 women

🌹 Introducing Functional Facials at Morning Rose 🌹

At Morning Rose, we believe skin should be treated with the same level of intention and clinical thoughtfulness as the rest of the body. Our new Functional Facial treatments reflect a more refined, assessment-driven approach to skincare- one that goes beyond traditional spa facials.

Each treatment is guided by real-time skin evaluation and fully customized using corrective techniques, advanced modalities, and restorative formulations selected specifically for your skin that day. There are no preset protocols- only purposeful, targeted care designed to support true skin function and long-term results.

Our functional approach connects your in-clinic treatments with your at-home regimen. At the conclusion of every facial, you’ll receive personalized product education and skincare recommendations tailored to your skin’s needs- creating a clear, systematic plan rather than guesswork.

When appropriate, your skin plan may also be integrated with higher-level therapies within our practice, including microneedling, neurotoxin treatments, and peptide-based support- allowing us to care for skin through a comprehensive, layered approach.

This is luxury with intention.

Clinical care with customization.

A more complete path to healthy skin at Morning Rose.
