Episode 15 - Kristina Hanson is pelvic floor physical therapist and owner of Salt Lake City-based Uplift Pelvic Health & Wellness. Kristina emphasizes the importance of addressing pelvic floor issues beyond traditional physical therapy–and highlights the interconnectedness of our pelvic floor with the nervous system, abdominal muscles, and overall body function. 

Pelvic floor physical therapy addresses conditions like urinary incontinence, sexual issues, constipation, and pelvic pain, often caused by chronic fight-or-flight responses. It is important to maintain functional assessments and holistic approaches, including breath work and proper posture, and Kristina notes the need for early intervention to prevent future problems.
