Episode 27 - Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy with Dr. Tina Harris Part 1/2
About the episode:
As a doctor of physical therapy, Dr. Tina is looking at her clients as a whole. She looks at how they are functioning, and she takes it a step further to assess the health and overall function of the pelvic floor. Now don’t worry if don’t know what bones, muscles, or ligaments make up the pelvic floor, or if you only think of physical therapy in terms of “post-injury care”, or what breathwork has to do with pelvic floor PT because we talk about ALL of that and more in part 1 of our interview.
Not only does Dr. Tina assess prenatal patients for functional movement patterns and postpartum patients for bladder issues (and more!) but she also adds in expertise as a doula, reiki practitioner and acupressure instructor. She created her organization, Competent Heart Perinatal Specialist to help the birthing community find their tribe, create their village, and to support and empower themselves.
She’s an author, lifelong lover of birth, has dealt with infant loss; She continues to expand her skills to combine her talents and passions for holistic wellness, pelvic health, and childbirth to guide individuals towards healing and alignment of their body, mind, and spirit.
