Physical therapy and women's health
Sheree DiBIASE | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 12 years, 4 months AGO
Women are unique! Because of that uniqueness women need a different type of health care. Women need health care that is specifically designed for them.
Lake City Physical Therapy sees you as not just another patient, but as someone special and amazing. Our staff knows what it is like for women to get what they need throughout all the stages of their life. Because we are women and we have struggles with all the same health issues you have. We've had athletic injuries, back pain while pregnant, weight gain after our babies that never went away, leaky bladders when we cough and laugh. We know what it's like to have a body that aches everyday, migraine headaches, peri-menopuase and menopause issues that last for years, tummy muscles that never seem the same after a C-section, and a neck ache from carrying a 5-year-old all over town.
We often look in the mirror and wonder whose body is that anyway. Our Lake City staff helps women through all the stages of their life, so you can achieve the level of health you desire. Our goal is to not only help you improve physically but for you to develop the confidence to know that your body can do what you need it to everyday. Because we know that you have people who need you and our depending on you. We want women who are beautiful in all aspects of their life.
Physical therapy and women's health issues: Headaches, muscular fatigue, pelvic pain, pre-natal and postpartum issues, pelvic pain, urinary incontinence, osteoporosis, lymphedema, breast cancer reconstruction and back and neck pain from postural positions.
Sheree DiBiase, PT, and her staff can be reached at (208) 667-1988 and would like to help you, because you are truly unique.

All about pelvic health
Kegel mania started years ago. In fact most of the women I know have heard about Kegel exercises, even if they don't really understand them or know how to do them very well. Often women will say, "I think I'm doing it right, but I'm really not sure."
T'was the night before
When I was little I loved the magic of the poem “The Night Before Christmas.” My parents had a well-worn book that had beautiful illustrated pictures and they would read it to me each Christmas season. As soon as I could read it myself I would slowly read each page and get lost in my imagination. I would pretend that St. Nicholas was coming to my house in Maryland, landing on our roof with his reindeers and sneaking in my living room to deliver the “goods.” I would wait up as long as I could to try to get a peek of him. I wanted to know him. I wanted to watch him make his delivery. I wanted to see if he was really “jolly.” I wanted to believe. I wanted to believe in something bigger and better than anything I'd ever known.
Caregivers make the world a better place
Last week one of my incredible, long-term employees came to me and said, "I know what you need to write about next week. You need to write about all of our amazing patients that are caregivers. They need to know they are not alone and that we can help them, make this time of their lives better." I smiled and we proceeded to talk about the art of caregiving and the caregivers themselves.
