Abstract:
Abstract Background and Purpose. The number of older adults with cancer is growing, increasing the need for professionals who are able to meet these patients' special needs. In palliative care settings, physical therapists strive to promote quality of life. Minimal research exists, however, to guide therapists working with patients with terminal illness. The purpose of this study was to gain knowledge that can be used by physical therapists to more effectively assess and treat older people with cancer who are receiving hospice care.

Abstract Introduction International research shows high levels of job demands and psychological resources for physical therapists, and job strain is considered to be moderate. So far, publications are based on therapists with varying length of service. Little is known about job strain during the first year in the profession. Aim To investigate the level of job strain of German novice physical therapists and to identify common workplace stressors. Methods We conducted a web-based survey among physical therapists who had been working for 12 month or less. Using a self-administrated questionnaire

Abstract:
Objective: To describe some clinical issues encountered in individual and group therapy with women with metastatic breast cancer. Conclusions: The pressure to ‘keep positive’ poses dilemmas for patients and therapists alike, whether in individual or group therapy. The basis of skilled supportive care rests on the ability of therapists to assist patients and their families to face death rather than avoid it. Paradoxically, facing issues of death and dying leads to a greater sense of control, and empowers patients to reorder life's priorities, thus improving quality of life and relationships. In

Abstract:
Gender matters and has an impact, and it is intended to encourage readers to think about this important issue in clinical practice, education, research, and a wider context of public health1. Due to the dearth of gender theoretical knowledge that has been discovered within the field of physiotherapy, there are still many difficulties that women must overcome in today's world of gender equality and feminism for women's rights2. Historically, women are predominated in the physiotherapy profession, although this has gradually changed throughout the years3. According to Chartered Society of Physio

Abstract:
Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) affects about a quarter of women, imposing a significant financial burden on the US healthcare system. Myofascial pelvic pain (MFPP), often overlooked in CPP cases, involves tight pelvic floor muscles and trigger points, leading to symptoms like pain, urinary issues, and sexual discomfort. Despite its prevalence (23–78% in women with CPP), MFPP is frequently undiagnosed due to a lack of routine pelvic floor muscle examination. The pathogenesis involves neuromuscular microtrauma, metabolic imbalance, and centralization of pain. Symptom presentation varies, and diagnosi

Abstract:
Women with breast cancer face a diversity of physical, psychological, and social changes that affect their health and well-being across the different stages of the cancer journey, including treatment and survival. Moreover, breast cancer often results in greater distress than any other neoplasm, challenging women’s body, identity, and quality of life. Given the multiplicity of mind–body related problems that may confront women with breast cancer, psychomotor therapy is a valuable therapeutic approach for these women.
