Join Dr. Shikha Shah at her upcoming workshop on pelvic floor health. This event is designed for women of all ages and stages of life. Dr. Shah has been practicing physical therapy since 2012 and has dedicated her efforts in assisting individuals grappling with various orthopedic conditions, including postural impairments, joint pain, post-operative rehabilitation, and sport-related injuries. In 2016, she graduated as a DPT from Arcadia University sharpening her manual skills through evidence-based treatment strategies to continue to improve her service clients. In 2020, Dr. Shah gave birth to her beautiful son. Following a difficult delivery and recovery, the importance of providing services specific to pelvic floor health became even more important. As Dr. Shah reflects on her journey, she can confidently assert that having someone to guide her through the pregnancy and postpartum recovery process would have been invaluable and she seeks to be this support to others. Pregnant & Postpartum women require comprehensive guidance encompassing both physical and mental well-being. Today, three years into postpartum, Dr. Shah takes great pride in her ability to be a fit and content mother. Achieving this state necessitated significant dedication, hard work, and the unwavering support of family. All this wouldn't have been possible without a clear understanding of "Pelvic floor" and its role in helping women return to prior level of function & poise.
In addition to her private practice, Dr. Shah shares information about women's health through workshops in our community. At the upcoming April 1st event at NUR Space in Hastings-on-Hudson, needs of the participants will be covered, including:
