Texas State Meetup: "Below the Belt" Movie Screening in Houston, TX
Hosted by the TX State Representative
Join your Academy Texas-South State Representative, Mamawah Bourque PT, DPT, for an evening to watch the movie, "Below the Belt".
In the personal and inspiring stories of four patients urgently searching for answers to mysterious symptoms, Below the Belt exposes widespread problems in our healthcare systems. Through the lens of endometriosis, a disease that affects 1 in 9 women, the film shows how women are often dismissed, discounted & disbelieved. From societal taboos and gender bias to misinformed doctors and profit-driven healthcare, the film reveals how millions are effectively silenced and how, by fighting back, they can improve healthcare for everyone."
