    Is Self-Pay The Future Of PT? Everything You Need To Know About Rising Insurance Costs & US Healthcare

    Do you use your insurance for physical therapy services or do you pay out of pocket? More and more PT clinics are changing to the self pay model every day (and many other healthcare specialties too). Today this conversation was sparked because Amanda has recently decided to change her clinic, The Pelvic Institute, from a hybrid model to self pay only. Today we are here to discuss all the reasons more and more clinics are doing the same thing. Listen as we discuss the benefits that come with this change, why this model is becoming more popular among healthcare providers in the US, common questions Amanda has received, and why we are fed up with insurance companies!

    Could GLP-1s Help With Endometriosis And PMOS Symptoms? Let's Look At The Research With Dr. Hannah Kotsiris, PT, DPT

    GLP-1s have become a major trigger word recently (especially online). It seems these days every other commercial or ad is for a GLP-1 medication. We get asked all the time, “What do you think about GLP-1s as physical therapists?” So, to answer that question, we’re bringing on one of our own to talk about it! The lovely Dr. Hannah Kotsiris, our colleague at The Pelvic Institute and an amazing pelvic floor therapist, is joining us to deep dive into GLP-1s and what they could mean for certain pelvic health conditions we commonly see. We’re breaking down the science, looking beyond weight loss, and exploring their emerging potential for PMOS (formerly PCOS), endometriosis, inflammation, and more. Plus, we’re tackling the myths, side effects, and what you actually need to know before jumping on the GLP-1 train.  Have a question or story?

    Entering The Chat: Are Internal Exams Necessary For Pelvic Floor Therapy?

    We’re entering the chat: Is the internal exam necessary to assess the pelvic floor? There has been a lot of buzz on social media and arguments between pelvic floor therapists on whether or not internal exams are necessary (especially within the past few weeks). So we’re here today to give our stance on this. The fact that this is even a discussion begs the question: what is the greater purpose of calling into question the gold standard assessment tool of a healthcare practice that has been through the ringer to advocate for women’s healthcare access, quality of care, and improved outcomes.  Listen in and let us know what you think in the comments, pelvic freaks Podcast referenced in this episode for more information regarding this topic: https://open.spotify.com/show/77XnQP7jf6Z49XDOX25ZFE?si=674e6d7adcba4b9d Have a question or story?
