Summary

EPISODE 37 If you’ve followed me for a while, you know that I consider pelvic floor physical therapy to be one of the most important things for women to do. This is one of the topics I talk about with physical therapist and co-owner of Expecting and Empowered, Krystle. She gives us tips and tricks from every stage of pregnancy, from preconception to postpartum. As Krystle mentions, if the information that we cover was more widely known to the public, labor and delivery could likely go much smoother for women. As a mom of three, Krystle is so passionate about providing women the information they need to empower them to thrive physically throughout pregnancy, postpartum and beyond. Through Expecting and Empowered and her physical therapy clinic, she utilizes her physical therapy background to rewrite the narrative around women's health (especially during pregnancy and postpartum).
