The Role of Physical Therapy in Men’s Health
Physical therapy plays a critical role in restoring men to optimal health through treatment of a variety of musculoskeletal and health issues, including work and sport-related injuries, post-surgical rehabilitation, chronic pain, incontinence, sexual dysfunction, and TMD. June is Men’s Health Month and June 14-20 marks Men’s Health Week, a time to highlight the importance of men’s health, early treatment of disease and injury, and development of sustainable healthy habits.
How Physical Therapy Can Treat Women’s Health Conditions
A woman’s body undergoes tremendous changes throughout the course of her lifetime, particularly during childbearing and childbirth. These changes can lead to pain and muscle dysfunction of the pelvic floor. Too often, women are dismissed when they raise concerns over incontinence, chronic pelvic pain, or painful intercourse and continue to suffer these symptoms untreated for months and even years. Women no longer have to suffer in silence. Physical therapy is an effective treatment to address pelvic floor dysfunction and other women’s health conditions.
