SEQUIM — A nutritionist and certified personal trainer will explore the link between food and the intensity of aches and pains at a free WOW! Working on Wellness Forum at 2:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 10.
Julie McCrorie will present “Reducing Your Pain by What’s on Your Plate” at Trinity United Methodist Church, 100 N. Blake Ave., a new location for the forum.
McCrorie will tell how inflammation can be lowered through smart nutritional choices and why people are better off making dietary changes to improve health rather than relying on over-the-counter or prescription anti-inflammatory medication.
McCrorie is a certified personal trainer who also holds a fitness nutrition specialist certification through the National Association of Sports Medicine.
WOW! Working on Wellness is a health education program of the Dungeness Valley Health & Wellness Clinic, Sequim’s free clinic.
The clinic, supported by volunteers, provides basic urgent care and chronic health care services to uninsured community members.
The Basic Urgent Care Clinic at 777 N. Fifth Ave. is open to patients Monday and Thursday evenings beginning at 5 p.m.
