Your Pelvic Floor Changes Everything: Exclusive Interview with Anna McMaster, Pelvic Floor PT

Most women don't hear the words "pelvic floor" until they're already pregnant — or already dealing with symptoms they don't know how to name. In this episode, Alexa talks with Anna McMaster, a Doctor of Physical Therapy and pelvic floor specialist, about the muscle group your OB probably never mentioned and why it matters your entire life.Anna is the founder of Amy (askamie.co), a digital platform that brings personalized pelvic floor physical therapy to women who don't have access to a specialist — whether due to cost, location, or time.They cover what pelvic floor PT actually involves (internal exams, yes — but way less scary than you think), how to strengthen and relax your pelvic floor at home, the connection between your core and pelvic floor, why hemorrhoids happen postpartum and how to manage them, and why the "bounce back" after birth is a myth worth burying for good.Anna is also featured in the June issue of Mothered Magazine.
