Learning + Collaboration

Alongside the adventures during our fall retreat, we focused on evidence-informed learning and collaboration:

•Mastering new treatment techniques
•A heartfelt thank-you to a dear friend for bravely sharing her story of resilience as part of our oncology support focus
•Tackling one of healthcare’s toughest challenges—finding smarter ways to use our EMR and cut down documentation time
•Engaging sessions on women’s health, oncology care, and evidence-informed training for bone health

The mix of nature, learning, and connection has us energized and refreshed!

Last weekend our team went on a retreat to the Colorado mountains to recharge our minds, bodies, and spirits!

From hiking trails and biking up mountain hills to sharing coffee with a view and late-night hot tub talks — we created meaningful memories and took the opportunity to learn from one another in a relaxed, inspiring setting.

We’re heading back refreshed, energized, and inspired!!!

Are muscle and joint changes related to hormones? Absolutely! As research evolves, we now know that strength training is essential during perimenopause and postmenopause—not something to scale back. Contrary to common belief, strategic weight training can actually reduce muscle, joint, and tendon pain during these years. With so much conflicting advice out there, it’s easy to feel lost. Stay with us as we navigate these changes and find the best approach for lifelong strength and mobility!

We are so excited to add Shana Mangaldas, OTR/L, CLT to our team and now offer Occupational Therapy!

Welcome to the team, Shana!

At Chicago Physical Therapists, we are keenly aware of what the research says about hormones and joint pain. Fluctuations and declines in estrogen, testosterone, and progesterone—whether during perimenopause, postpartum, breastfeeding, or due to medications like aromatase inhibitors used in oncology—can drive inflammation and significantly impact musculoskeletal health. These changes often lead to increased hip and shoulder pain, tendinitis, and joint stiffness, as well as GSM (genitourinary syndrome of menopause) symptoms.

Understanding these hormonal influences allows us to take a more comprehensive approach to care. Rather than just treating one joint, we consider the bigger picture—how hormones, muscle loss, and inflammation interact—so we can help you move and feel better. This is a complex and important topic, and we’ll be sharing more insights soon. Stay tuned!

We love incorporating innovative and helpful tools like the Mobo Board into our physical therapy treatments. During a recent staff Mentoring Meeting, Laura Gleason shared insights about the Mobo Board and demonstrated exercises to target specific muscles, flexibility and mobility.

The Mobo helps improve joint mobility, balance, and overall movement control, making it a game-changer for anyone recovering from injury or working to prevent future pain. It’s a fun and effective way to support your recovery and movement goals!
