Skip to content At Womens Health Group Chicago, we understand that the period following surgery is a critical time for women’s health. That’s why we offer specialized post-operative rehabilitation programs tailored to meet individual patient needs and set them on a fast track to recovery. Our expert therapists work collaboratively with each woman’s surgical team to design a comprehensive rehab plan that optimizes healing, restores function, and maximizes quality of life after surgery.
Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy is another vital sub-service provided by our clinic in Riverdale. This therapy addresses the muscles of the “pelvic floor”—the group of structures that support crucial bodily functions like bladder control and sexual activity. We have qualified physical therapists who specialize in this field; they use various therapeutic exercises and techniques to strengthen these muscles, alleviate discomfort, rectify urinary or fecal inconsistencies, restore continence and improve overall pelvic health.
In managing Lymphedema—chronic swelling typically occurring in arms or legs—we emphasize early detection & intervention at Womens Health Group Chicago. Our expertly trained therapists employ cutting-edge treatments such as manual lymph drainage (MLD), compression bandaging/garments, skin care regimens coupled with education on self-care practices. Each program is individually configured based on severity acknowledging variations among patients’ conditions & adaptability.
Chronic pain can significantly impact all facets of a woman’s day-to-day routine causing emotional distress alongside impairing physical functionality—but it needn’t stay this way! At Womens Health Group Chicago we firmly advocate pro-active management over passive endurance utilizing advanced Pain Management Therapies specific to women’s healthcare issues including endometriosis pain or postpartum discomforts. Associated modalities cover pharmacological interventions alongside non-drug treatments like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), physical exercise regimens and relaxation techniques.
Our specialized Neurological Rehabilitation service targets women facing neurological disorders or injuries. By weaving together various treatment elements from physiotherapy, occupational therapy to speech/language therapy—our approach holistically builds the resilience required to regain control over their bodies & lives be it post-stroke, after a traumatic brain injury or managing degenerative conditions such as MS/Parkinson’s Disease.
Countering musculoskeletal issues effectively requires sound therapeutic intervention, which is what our Orthopedic Physical Therapy services aspire to provide. Catering primarily to women who have undergone orthopedic surgery or those experiencing difficulties due to arthritis, osteoporosis etc., these evidence-based programs optimize mobility while curtailing pain throughout recovery. We are dedicated towards empowering our patients’ self-reliance and fostering improved outcomes.
