Based on writer & executive producer Bonnie Gross’s true story, Lady Parts is a dramedy feature film where a young woman’s s*x life becomes a family affair when she has to undergo a vulvar vestibulectomy. Her loving, but overbearing parents help her through recovery (despite her cringing) and learn that saying “vagina” loud and proud is the first step to advocating for herself in all aspects of her life.

Please note that 25% of all ticket sales will be donated to Tight Lipped, a grassroots non-profit advocacy organization by and for people with chronic vulvovaginal & pelvic pain. All other funds will be used to continue bringing events such as this to more cities across the USA.

If you need financial assistance with this ticket please email bonniegross@ladypartsfilm.com for a specialized discount code. We want to make this important screening and panel accessible to all.

A side plank is a great full body exercise. The full version can be challenging initially, we’re demonstrating some modified versions as well as progressions!

Chronic chest breathing can lead to increased tension in the neck, pec tightness, and reduced rib mobility over time. This type of breathing can often been seen in a heightened nervous state such as our “fight or flight” response.

🫁 Diaphragmatic breathing has been shown to improve relaxation by activating the parasympathetic nervous system, or as other people know it as, our “rest and digest” response.

Try these three exercises to help induce a more relaxed state!

If you’re having mobility issues, difficulty relaxing, or have been living with chronic pain, come visit us at Atlantic physical therapy for an initial consultation! 💪🏼 ✨

🎾 Play Stronger, Hurt Less!

Pickleball Injury Clinics at .pickleball with Dr. Michelle Friedman- a fully licensed Doctor of Physical Therapy and owner of Atlantic Physical Therapy who is also a very good, 4.0+ level pickleball player- so she really understands the game and the injuries it can cause.

If you’ve been feeling that nagging elbow pain or tightness in your Achilles after long matches, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to just “play through it.”

Join Dr. Friedman for two focused, performance-based injury clinics at Bounce Center City, designed specifically for competitive and recreational pickleball players who want to recover faster, prevent re-injury, and stay on the court longer.

Clinic 1: Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis)
Date: Monday, November 10th from 6:30-7:30pm

Learn what causes tennis elbow, how to load and rehab the tendon properly, and key on-court modifications (like using a two-handed backhand) to reduce strain.

The bear crawl hold truly is a full body exercise! It’s great for improving core strength, quad engagement, and shoulder stability. The hold itself is a great exercise but here are a few variations we love to give patients to make things more challenging!
