Location: Manhattan Public Library

Join us for April's session of Understand & Empower: Monthly Cancer Education titled, "Understand the System: Bone Health."
Cancer treatment, early menopause, and changes in activity levels can all impact bone health — often faster than we expect. In this foundational session, Stephanie will help us understand how accelerated aging, osteoporosis, and joint health concerns intersect with cancer survivorship. Understanding what’s happening inside the body is the first step toward building confidence and protecting long-term health.
This session will be led by Stephanie Johnson, PT, MPT. Stephanie is a Kansas native and a highly experienced physical therapist who has worked in a wide range of settings over her career. She specializes in oncology rehabilitation and active aging by addressing the specific needs and goals of her clients, based upon their individual cancer journey. She has worked alongside her husband, Scott, since the founding of Maximum Performance Physical Therapy and Fitness in 2003. They strive to provide exceptional services and care to Manhattan and the surrounding communities.
