In this episode, Vanessa Gengler, Restorative Exercise Specialist™, shares her healing journey. Vanessa's symptoms began in college. Despite being very fit and active she began to have ankle tendonitis, foot pain, knee pain, then once she transitioned to a desk job, pain migrated to her shoulders, wrists and neck!
During pregnancy she started to experience a heaviness in her pelvic floor as well as the "normal" aches and pains associated with pregnancy.  Vanessa describes her daughter's birth as traumatic, and postpartum she experienced pelvic floor disorder, prolapse, as well as diastasis recti (abdominal separation).
Listen in on PODBEAN to find out how Vanessa began the healing process to restore her diastasis recti, prolapse and pelvic floor.
