Orthopedics
Your health and happiness are connected to your hip bone.
The musculoskeletal system affects every part of your body. And
orthopedics is a specialized branch of medicine dedicated to it.
Orthopedics in women is an even slimmer branch of specialization. We
focus on features of women that make them more prone to certain
orthopedic injuries and diseases, including hormonal, anatomical and
biomechanical aspects. What are the common orthopedic issues among
women? Well, they include ACL tears, arthritis, and osteoporosis
fractures particularly of the wrist, spine, and hip.
The goal of our program is prevention, which can be aided through
strength training and leaner body mass. Exercise not only helps prevent
common orthopedic issues, it can also prevent or delay conditions like
heart disease or diabetes.
