Betty walks us through the orientation and function of the pelvic floor, and emphasizes that the pelvic floor affects alignment in all other areas of the body. We discuss the process of diagnosis that Dr. DeLass uses in order to assess pelvic floor issues in her clinic.

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.

Pregnancy and childbirth can understandably put a lot of strain on the pelvic floor, but due to a dearth of common knowledge about pelvic health, many women believe that there is nothing they can do about any pain or issue that arises after giving birth. With greater understanding of how the pelvis can be realigned and have its muscles strengthened with physical therapy, we could be well on our way to eradicating the belief that childbirth does irreversible damage to a woman's body and allow future generations to know that their lives don't need to be controlled by pain.

Sarah and Dr. DeLass talk about the ins and outs of pelvic wellness, and walk through the ways that a misaligned pelvis can cause issues in the whole body, and how those issues can be repaired or prevented with therapy to align and strengthen the pelvic muscles. They also discuss the utility and importance of pelvic alignment and how a better common understanding of what pelvic health entails would help a lot of people realize that they can improve their quality of life at any age.
