Physiotherapy and its Role in Gender Affirming Care: From Hormones to Surgery
This workshop provides a look into the role of physiotherapy in gender-affirming care, with a focus on inclusivity and individualized patient support throughout their journey. We will discuss the importance of working with an individual trained in gender affirming care, not only for those going through hormones or surgery but for all individuals within 2SLGBTQIA+ communities. In addition, the workshop will cover the impact of hormone therapy to pre- and post-surgical rehabilitation. Participants will learn the benefits of physiotherapy care as well as when an individual should seek out a physiotherapist in gender-affirming care.
This workshop is offered asynchronously and the first Module will be shared Monday, January 13, 2025.
