Understanding Pelvic Health: Common but Not Normal Issues Postpartum

This episode features a conversation with Lynn Schulte, a pelvic floor physical therapist, who addresses common postpartum issues like leakage and painful intercourse. Lynn stresses that these issues are common but not normal and discusses the importance of working with a pelvic floor physical therapist for recovery. 

The discussion covers various topics, including the impact of childbirth on pelvic health, the importance of proper alignment and muscle activation, and the need for holistic trauma care. Lynn also highlights the significant difference between common occurrences post-pregnancy and what is normal, and encourages listening to one's body and seeking proper care instead of normalizing these issues.
