Listen to Episode 42
“So honestly, like, using a women's health physical therapy in combination with the E & E program really in my mind is such a gold standard. In the clinic we can always tell who does the program and who doesn’t and there’s always a huge difference between the pair.”Pregnant and Why is my c-section scar itchy? It looks like the c-section scar one was already started, do you want me to finish adding it?”
