Ep. 36 - Beyond the Six-Week Checkup: Real Talk on Postpartum Recovery

In this episode, Dr. Kari Roberts delves into the often misunderstood realm of postpartum recovery. She highlights that while the standard six-week checkup may clear women for normal activity, many still face issues that go unnoticed. From muscle function to hormonal changes, various factors affect how a woman feels after giving birth. Dr. Roberts explains how pelvic physical therapy can address these issues, focusing on muscle strength, coordination, and emotional readiness. By shifting expectations away from rapid 'snapback' recovery, she advocates for a more realistic and supportive approach to postpartum health.
