Episode 2: Exploring Trauma and Postpartum PTSD with Modern-Day Shaman, Tara Reitz

In this week's episode, our host, Dr. Julia Smeltz, PT, DPT, interviews modern-day shaman, Tara Reitz. We define trauma, overview the anatomy of the autonomic nervous system as it relates to trauma, discuss Tara's role as a shaman, how she treats patients, the process of healing from personal and ancestral trauma,  and how women can benefit from seeing a shaman in addition to physical therapy postpartum. We also talk about the 7 energy centers and how they relate to healing. There is a brief meditation session led by Tara at the end of the episode as well!
