At six weeks new mums will have a check up with their health care professional - an obstetrician, midwife or GP. But these checks don't have the capacity to include a comprehensive check of a woman's pelvic floor. Lyz Evans is a women's physiotherapist who believes that a 6 week post birth checkup with a women's physio is vital to a woman's long term health and wellbeing. Lyz explains what a 6-week pelvic floor check involves and why it's so crucial to a woman's overall health.

The program Lyz discusses in this episode is called Empowered Motherhood.
