Role of a Physiotherapist in Women Health

Abstract

Purpose: Physiotherapy addresses the unique health needs of women and acknowledges the need for specific clinical knowledge and competence in treating women’s health issues. By offering non-invasive and conservative treatments, physiotherapists empower women to effectively manage these conditions, enabling them to lead more fulfilling and active lives. Methods: The Review of the Literature has been made with the help of all those articles containing the words “Women’s health”, and “Physiotherapy”. Google Scholar, Research Gate, PubMed, Cochrane, and Science Direct databases have been used for the article between 2022 and 2016. Results: Physiotherapists who work with women’s health do a really important job. They can help with things like problems with the muscles in the lower part of the body, pain during and after pregnancy, and problems that can happen after breast cancer. By giving special care and using treatments that have been proven to work, physiotherapists help women stay healthy and have a life. This research shows that it is important for physiotherapists to be involved in helping women with their health. Conclusion: The research shows that physiotherapists who specialize in women’s health play a big role in helping women feel better and have a good quality of life. By learning more and getting better at what they do, physiotherapists can keep helping women be healthy and make society better as a whole.
