28: Diastasis Recti with Lisa Marie Ryan

Author: HeHe Stewart May 29, 2018 Duration: 1:07:28
Today, we are diving into Diastasis Recti. I'm sitting down with Lisa Marie Ryan who is awaiting surgical correction for her severe DR after having her two children and continuing to participate in intense work outs during pregnancy. We are talking all about the causes of her DR as well as what she has learned along the way. We also give away tips of how you can prevent damage and protect your body in pregnancy and postpartum. Lisa Marie also shares her insight on athleticism during pregnancy and why pain (or lack there of) isn't the greatest indicator of healing. If you are a cesarean birth parent thinking this doesn't apply to you, think again! Today's episode is a blast and you will leave with so much new information! See ya there!    Shownotes:   Check out the blog!
