Movement & Medicine: A Women's Health Conversation

Movement & Medicine is a four-part summer series exploring what movement can do for chronic pain, autoimmune disease, and long-term women's health — and why that conversation is long overdue.
We're kicking things off on July 14th, 2026 at 6:30 PM. Rachel Stern, fitness instructor, will guide you through a 45-minute low-impact, full-body Pilates-inspired workout designed with women's health in mind — a chance to slow down, tune in, and reconnect with your body.
From there, Maddie Gentile Ellwood, CPT, LMT will lead a grounding and breathwork exercise — a gentle, intentional practice for women navigating pain who want to come home to their bodies.
We'll close the evening with a panel conversation featuring OB-GYN Ariella Nouriel, MD, FACOG, Molly Spilka, DNP, FNP-BC, and Maddie Gentile Ellwood, CPT, LMT — an honest, expert-led discussion on the role of movement in managing pain, autoimmune conditions, and women's health across every stage of life.
