Logan University to Host 3rd Annual Women’s Health Symposium

In partnership with the American Chiropractic Association (ACA), Logan University presents the third annual Women’s Health Symposium, Oct. 30-31, 2021, on Logan’s campus and online.

With a theme of “Transforming and Elevating Female Health,” the symposium will feature expert leaders in women’s health discussing topics such as menopause, treating the female athlete, chronic vulvar pain, breast imaging, pelvic floor dysfunction and more. The symposium is open to all health care professionals working with female patients and provides up to 12 hours of continuing education credits.

Assistant Dean of the College of Chiropractic at Logan and ACA Council on Women’s Health President Kristina Petrocco-Napuli, DC, MS, FICC, FACC said she looks forward to bringing the event back in person this year after a virtual symposium in 2020. For those who prefer to attend virtually, however, a livestream option will be available. Dr. Petrocco-Napuli hopes that those attending will leave the symposium with new expertise and strategies to improve health care for the female patient population.

“It’s important for experts in our profession to teach, collaborate and learn from each other in order to improve health and wellness for their patients, especially female patients,” Petrocco-Napuli said. “Logan University is excited to host this event once again and to share in the thoughtful insights from our fellow practitioners.”
