For Women of All Ages (Part 1)

1/4/2010

0 Comments

 
I thought I would start the new year off with a new series in hopes that I get on a more regular blogging schedule. Seeing as my main patient population is female I thought it appropriate to take a look at women’s health issues throughout the lifespan. I hope you enjoy the series.

INTRODUCTION:
Women are unique creatures. At our most fundamental level women’s bodies are structured to give birth and supply early nutrition to the next generation. Yet, whether or not we decide to have children, our reproductive system affects our body throughout our lifetime. Now I am not giving you free reign to blame hormones on everything, but they do play a huge roll!
​
We will be talking about various women’s health conditions from adolescence, menstrual pains, female athletes, childbearing years, and menopause. Please feel free to send me suggestions of information you are interested in learning about.

Relaxing During the Holidays

With the holiday season comes much hustle and bustle. It is very easy to get wrapped up in it all and not take time for yourself. Even when it seems impossible, I recommend taking 5 to 10 minutes of “quiet” time for yourself each day. Trust me it will help keep you focused and refreshed. Below are some suggestions for ways to relax. [...]

What is Women’s Health Physical Therapy

11/12/2009

0 Comments

 
So, I thought that what better way to start out “Upshot” than with a wonderful article about what Women’s Health Physical Therapy is.  Legacy Physical Therapy is happy to say that we provide all of these services at our facility.

Although I would like to take credit for this article, I cannot. It was written by Michele Wojciechowski and published in the Noveber 2009 issue of PT in Motion. I have included an excerpt of the article below and the link to get to the article online. I hope that you find the information helpful.
​
In the past, women’s health was most often thought of in terms of gynecological care. Even today, some physical therapists, hearing the words “women’s health,” first think of “pelvic floor dysfunction.” But that’s only one reason that women of all ages need and seek treatment.

    "We help women who are tired of leaking, dealing with pelvic pain, and wanting to get their body back in shape after baby (even if it’s been 30 years) all without relying on medications or surgery."
