CHICAGO -- Berman Center, Inc., a broad based lifestyle company focused on women's sexual health, well being and menopause management, announced today that it has completed a merger with a wholly-owned subsidiary of LB Center, Inc.

According to Dr. Laura Berman, President of the Chicago-based Berman Center, the financing and merger transaction represents an opportunity to achieve the company's vision. "Our decision to move forward with this transaction was driven by our passion for advancing the Berman Center's mission, which is to help every woman reach their full potential, physically, mentally and spiritually," said Berman. "We are now firmly positioned to branch out nationally to provide the services and guidance that over 63 million women suffering from sexual dysfunction and 50 million women facing the changes of menopause desperately need."

The Berman Center's plans include expanding a range of upscale spa-like women's sexual health and well being clinics, initially in the suburbs of Chicago. Other initiatives by the Berman Center include continuing its outreach with the medical community and expanding its medical education courses to doctors and nurses in various markets. These courses are currently offered in Chicago and Los Angeles. In addition, Dr. Berman plans to utilize ongoing research to author new books and DVDs on the topic of sexual health and expand her newspaper and magazine columns, as well as the production of television and radio shows. The company also plans lifestyle endorsement and branding opportunities with leading pharmaceutical and consumer products companies, branded sexual function devices, as well as an array of future opportunities.

Dr. Berman is a leading expert on sex-related issues in America today. She is a clinical professor of OBGYN and psychiatry in the Feinberg School of Medicine of Northwestern University. She has earned two Master's Degrees in Social Work and a Ph.D. from New York University in Human Sexuality.
