Today I’m super excited because we have Lynn Schulte, a very talented pelvic floor physical therapist, joining us on the podcast.
We’re diving into some super important stuff for moms, especially if you’re navigating the postpartum phase. Lynn’s going to break down why keeping your cervix mobile matters and how tweaking your bladder’s position can help stop those annoying leaks.
Plus, did you know your stretched-out abdominal muscles after pregnancy could be behind some of that stress incontinence? Lynn Schulte shares some simple exercises to get your core back on track.
We’re also chatting about the magic of visceral manipulation and how energy work can work wonders for a smoother birth. And let’s not forget the emotional side—Lynn reminds us that healing from birth trauma is always possible, no matter how long it’s been.
In this episode, we cover:
- The effects of stretched abdominal muscles post-pregnancy
