Why Men Avoid Therapy (And Why They Shouldn’t)
Every so often, a patient asks how many men I treat compared to women. Honestly? 80-85% are women. So, men… what’s going on here? Do we feel the need to “power through” pain, hear some coach from glory days yelling, “suck it up, buttercup,” or worry that missing work makes us look weak? Probably all of the above. 😅
There’s truth in that thinking, but it keeps us stuck. I’ve found more healing, hope, and life by being open to change than by clinging to comfort. That openness took me from sportswriter to physical therapist to starting Restore Therapy, LLC—using craniosacral therapy, myofascial release, and other tools to guide patients toward real healing. 💪
The Bible reminds us to put off our old self (Ephesians 4:22) and be transformed by the renewing of our mind (Romans 12:2). Step out. Embrace change. Discover the healthier, stronger version of yourself!
