Ep 61: When, where and how should we start screening for HA?

Emily Everton, PT, DPT is a holistic Women’s Health Doctor of Physical Therapy and the founder of Embody Physical Therapy & Wellness, LLC in Hopkinton, MA. Emily specializes in Orthopedic and Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy and is especially passionate about all things menstrual health, fertility, and perinatal care. Emily also supports women with Hypothalamic Amenorrhea and irregular menstrual cycles in her role as a Women's Health coach, where she helps women restore ovulation, get their period back, regulate their menstrual cycles, and if hoping to get pregnant, do so naturally. Both during and outside of her clinical work, Emily loves to talk about taboo topics and challenge unsustainable societal standards to help girls/women find peace with their bodies and live their fullest, symptom-free life. Though Emily’s work was initially inspired by her own lived experience with disordered eating, orthorexia, RED-S, Hypothalamic Amenorrhea, infertility, and a poor relationship with her body…she is consistently inspired by the wonderful girls and women she is so fortunate to support on a daily basis. ‌ In this Episode Why athletes are at a higher risk for amenorrhea Defining RED-S and understanding the signs and symptoms How body comments can trigger disordered eating How to improve body image during period recovery Working through recovery before you’re ready to get pregnant Using HA recovery as a “permission slip” to rest and nourish Connect with Lindsey: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@‌food.freedom.fertility⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.foodfreedomandfertility.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Twitter: @lindseylusson Tiktok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@‌food.freedom.fertility⁠
