We talk about the differences in practitioners that are involved in pregnancy and when a Midwife or an OB may refer a patient to a Physical Therapist, as well as the importance of collaboration between different perinatal practitioners in facilitating healing. We discuss how pelvic misalignment affects fertility. We also touch on Diastasis Recti and how it can be prevented or repaired with physical therapy.
