5/10/2025Celebrating Women’s Health Month: How Physical Therapy and Wellness Empower Women

May is Women’s Health Month—a time to prioritize, protect, and celebrate the health and well-being of women of all ages. At Cypress Physical Therapy, we believe that empowering women through movement, recovery, and wellness is essential to living a vibrant, healthy life.

Whether you're navigating pregnancy, recovering from surgery, managing chronic conditions, or simply striving to stay active, physical therapy and wellness services can provide vital support tailored to your needs.

How Physical Therapy Supports Women’s Health

Women experience unique health challenges throughout life—from hormonal shifts to musculoskeletal changes during pregnancy, postpartum recovery, menopause, and beyond. Physical therapy offers targeted treatment to address many of these issues.

💪 Pelvic Health Physical Therapy

Pelvic floor dysfunction affects millions of women and can lead to incontinence, pelvic pain, or prolapse. Our therapists offer discreet, evidence-based treatment to strengthen pelvic floor muscles, improve bladder control, and restore confidence.

🤰 Prenatal & Postpartum Care

Pregnancy brings significant changes to the body. PT can reduce back pain, improve posture, and promote safer movement during pregnancy. Postpartum, therapy supports core and pelvic floor recovery, diastasis recti healing, and regaining strength.

🦴 Osteoporosis Management

Women are at higher risk of developing osteoporosis, especially post-menopause. Weight-bearing exercise, posture training, balance work, and joint protection strategies help improve bone health and reduce fall risk.

🩺 Chronic Pain & Autoimmune Conditions

Conditions such as fibromyalgia, TMJ dysfunction, and arthritis are more prevalent in women. Physical therapy addresses pain through manual therapy, dry needling, and movement-based strategies to restore function and quality of life.

The Role of Wellness in Women's Health

Our Evergreen Wellness services complement physical therapy by supporting the body’s recovery and promoting long-term vitality.

💆‍♀️ Massage & Manual Therapy
