Research increasingly shows that exercise — including heavy lifting — can be beneficial during pregnancy. But how do health professionals view strength training for pregnancy in real-world practice? Katja interviewed five healthcare professionals to explore their perspectives and uncovered several important insights.
Katja Ungersböck completed her Bachelor’s degree in Physiotherapy at IMC Fachhochschule Krems, Austria. She currently works at Universitätsklinikum Hochegg, primarily with neurological patients, and has recently completed additional training in sports physiotherapy. Outside of work, she is passionate about physical activity, including gym training, climbing, hiking, and skiing.
Enjoy!
