Episode: 24 Taking an active role in your reproductive health

Alright ladies this one is for us. Part of taking back our power as women is taking the time and energy to really educate ourselves to understand our bodies then do what needs to be done to support them. This week Dr Melissa Thompson and I take a deep dive into understanding our cycle and knowing how to really trust ourselves when something is not right then be able to advocate for ourselves. I was definitely clueless when it came to understanding my own cycle, hormone and reproductive health. You are not alone and there are people like Dr Thompson out there to educate and work with us to thrive in our lives and not accept living with pain, leakage or having to depend on pills. Dr Melissa Thompson is a board-certified Doctor of Physical Therapy with specialty certifications in Manual Therapy, pelvic health, corrective exercise, and Fertility Awareness Mentoring. She helps women understand their menstrual cycle health and their pelvic health so they can heal pelvic pain, relieve bladder issues, and take charge of their fertility. Through her own struggles with pelvic pain & infertility, she saw the gap in care for women's health. She could not find a practitioner to find the root cause of her pain until she began seeing holistic practitioners in the pelvic health field who believe in finding the root cause.
