In honor of May being both #WomensHealthMonth and #PelvicPainAwareness Month, Dr. Bronwyn Fitz of Women's Integrative Health and Jessica Klecki, DPT, are coming together to destigmatize the discussion around women’s health. With so many options and support systems available nowadays, you shouldn’t need to live with discomfort or feel limited to traditional medication or surgery.

During this webinar, they will cover diagnoses and symptoms commonly experienced by women through the unique perspectives of an integrative health practitioner and a pelvic health physical therapist. They will share “red flags” to help you understand when to seek treatment from a medical provider and how to advocate for your own health.

Managing stress is a critical part of achieving Op

Managing stress is a critical part of achieving Optimal Health, whether it's through meditation and mindfulness, yoga or anything in between.

@DrDanSiegel developed the Wheel of Awareness to help people guide focus and direct awareness. "The metaphor is that of a bicycle wheel, and all along the rim are places where you can direct your focus, accessing those moments through a 'spoke of attention....' Through learning to control your awareness...[if] you feel that you are stressed in the moment, with practice, you’ll be able to take a step back and realize what it causing that stress, and to refocus your attention on other aspects of the moment.

In addition there is evidence that a mediation practice like the Wheel of Awareness can help reduce inflammation and improve your immune system. It can also keep cells healthier, slowing the process of aging. In addition it can improve cholesterol levels, blood pressure, and heart function" (Siegel, 2018).

As a high school soccer player, Brooke works with

As a high school soccer player, Brooke works with Mat in her training sessions to incorporate sport-specific exercises that target key muscles and movements. Check out these 4 exercises from a recent sessions!

3-Cone Drill: The goal is to improve linear acceleration and taking proper angles. In soccer, it's critical for a player to abruptly stop and absorb force, and then quickly re-accelerate to make a play. We describe this to the athlete as "load-explode" (Credit: @leetaft).

Dumbbell Split Jerk: This power exercise trains reactive strength and lower leg stability and coordination.

KB Swing: The explosive hip extension works to improve sprint performance and strengthen the posterior chain.

@ohmdynamics Side Lunge Woodchop: Emphasizes rotational core-stability with single-leg loading strategy.

Did you know that women have a higher risk of developing osteoarthritis than men?

According to a 2016 study published in Reumatologia, researchers found that "whole-body cryotherapy resulted in a reduction in the frequency and degree of pain perception in patients with osteoarthritis. WBC reduced the number of analgesic medications in these patients. It improved the range of physical activity and had a positive effect on the well-being of patients" (Chruściak, 2016).

After 10 cryotherapy sessions, 78% of the 50 participants studied reported a significant improvement. Check out the full study at the link in our bio.
