Question 1

Is Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) safe?

Accepted Answer

Current evidence shows that HRT is safe for most women during perimenopause and menopause when prescribed appropriately. The Menopause Society and Canadian Menopause Society recommend individualized assessment, risk stratification, and monitoring. At Terra Wellness, we follow evidence-based guidelines to determine if HRT is right for you.

Question 2

What is an EVOLT body composition scan?

Accepted Answer

EVOLT is a 3D body composition scanner that measures muscle mass, fat mass, and bone density—not just scale weight. This is especially valuable during menopause and weight management, where body composition changes matter more than total weight.

Question 3

Can I do menopause consultations virtually?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All discovery calls and most follow-up appointments for menopause and weight management can be done virtually. We serve patients across Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Ontario, and Alberta.

Question 4

What makes Terra Wellness different?

Accepted Answer

Terra Wellness is NP-led by Marie Powell, a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner (MSCP)—one of only two in Newfoundland and Labrador. We integrate menopause care with medical weight management, offer longer appointments, provide EVOLT body composition scanning, and focus on evidence-based care without high-pressure upsells.

Question 5

What does MSCP certification mean?

Accepted Answer

MSCP (Menopause Society Certified Practitioner) is the recognized gold standard in specialized menopause care. It requires advanced training, ongoing education, and adherence to evidence-based protocols set by The Menopause Society. Marie Powell is one of very few MSCP-certified Nurse Practitioners in Atlantic Canada.
