Women Health Therapy
Women are just built differently than men. From differences in hormones to the unique stresses from pregnancy, our bodies go through a lot in a lifetime. Women’s health is health care through the lens of specially trained medical professionals who understand how women’s bodies work differently.
Women’s health physical therapists evaluate and treat the musculoskeletal disorders that may occur to women throughout their lifespan, with specialized understanding of the physiological differences and the impact of hormones on their condition and recovery. The health concerns of women are as varied as the women themselves and can include everyone from young athletes to postmenopausal women.
