Women’s Health Rehabilitation

Women’s bodies go through many experiences from adolescence, through the childbearing years, during menopause and beyond. Women can benefit greatly from programs designed specifically for the stress these experiences have on their bodies.

The Women’s Health Rehabilitation Program’s customized treatment plans will help you gain control of your symptoms, enhance your quality of life, help you return to physical activity, possibly prevent surgery, possibly reduce use of medication and decrease urge and frequency.

A referral from your primary care provided is needed before starting the program. When you start your care in the Women’s Health Rehabilitation Program a compassionate female physical therapist with advanced training in women’s health rehabilitation will conduct an initial evaluation and create a customized treatment plan that will help you gain control of your symptoms and help you achieve your goals.
