EP 291: A Holistic Approach to Pelvic Health with Dr. Stefanie McMillin

Stefanie’s passion for women’s health started at an early age, in the form of studying pregnancy and childbirth. This passion is what led her to specialize in urogynecology after receiving a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree. After graduation, she immersed herself in all things women’s health. After countless hours of continuing education courses and extensive training through the Barral Institute, she began utilizing visceral manipulation to help restore health and functionality within the female pelvis and abdominal viscera. She feels strongly that the aches and pains, both emotionally and physically, that come before, during, and after pregnancy can be eased and prevented with gentle manual therapy, education, and guidance. In this episode, we dive into the physiology of birth, the importance of education throughout birth an labor, and where visceral manipulation and physical therapy come into play.  Connect with Dr. Stefanie https://www.fullcirclept.net https://www.instagram.com/doctor_stefanie Connect with Liz https://www.instagram.com/esandoz/?hl=en https://www.Elizabethjoy.co Get the First Trimester Survival Guide https://elizabethjoy.co/freebie Sponsors: Dime Go to https://dimebeautyco.com/ now and enter CHAVA to unlock our discount  Lume  new customers get $5 off Lume’s Starter Pack with code CHAVA at LumeDeodorant.com Get better sleep now with Blissy and use code CHAVA to get an additional 30% off at blissy.com/CHAVA   Why Chava?
