Physical Therapy- Women's Health

 

The American Physical Therapy Association has dedicated an entire section to the obstetric and gynecologic needs of women. In fact, the ob/gyn section of the APTA has provided mountains of research and support for physical therapists across the country. Surprised?...We're not. Every day we treat women with health issues ranging from pregnancy-related back pain to urinary incontinence.

These are just a few of the women's health issues that can be effectively treated with physical therapy.
