Hey there, welcome to the NorthStar Physical Therapy podcast!

In relation to Pain Awareness Month, let’s talk about the menstrual cycle that women go through every single month and what a giant pain that is!
As a pelvic floor physical therapist, I often talk about the menstrual cycle with my clients because it does play a role to how our body responds to things and I can prescribe exercises and activities to alleviate the pain felt during this time of the month.
