#138: Pelvic Floor PTs ARE Orthopedic PTs - Specializing in Women’s Health is the Key Difference
We both have this conversation with patients and clients so often that we are very overdue on making an episode about it! Physical Therapists all go to PT school and have the same extensive orthopedic training. The difference with a Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist, is that they completed additional, and very in depth training, to specialize in all things related to the pelvis and women's health. Therefore, it doesn't make any sense for women in their child bearing years to see a traditional orthopedic PT for their hip pain, back pain, etc - when a Pelvic Floor PT is well trained to treat all of the same ortho needs, in additional to all things related to the pelvis, hips, back, pregnancy, postpartum, etc. It saves many women a lot of time and money going right to the PFPT who is able to look at the big picture at this phase of life, and treat accordingly!
