For people with a physical challenge, such as back pain, a hip replacement, arthritis, or generalized weakness, the mechanics of having sex make it seem out of the question. But no matter the physical challenge, both solo, and partnered sex can be not only possible but pleasurable. In this episode, Dr. Streicher chats with Dr. Heather Howard, a clinical sexologist, the founder of The Center for Sexual Health and Rehabilitation, and the developer of ERGOEROTICS, which facilitates sexual pleasure for people with those physical challenges that make sex...challenging. 

In this episode, Dr. Streicher and Dr. Howard discuss:

The definition of ERGO-EROTICS

Why THE BED is not always the best place to have sex
The power of the PILLOW

Post HIP replacement ergonomics
Tips for those with ARTHRITIS

Why a sex “DRESS REHEARSAL “is helpful

DEVICES for those with arthritis to hold a vibrator

VIDEOS to help those with physical challenges
How to make ergonomic ADJUSTMENTS
