Navigating the World of Pelvic Health with Physical Therapist, Dr. Lindsay Massumi

The Nested Parent

In this month’s episode, I was excited to talk with Dr. Lindsay Durand Massumi, a licensed pelvic health and orthopedic physical therapist and health coach. The topic of pelvic health has gained a great deal of traction over the last few years, and it’s something that so many people are turning to (and can truly benefit from). Lindsay was first introduced to the pelvic health world after seeing her sister have incredible success with pelvic floor PT during her pregnancy. She quickly fell in love with everything that could be achieved with pelvic floor therapy, and now considers it her life’s passion as she supports her patients in the pelvic health space.

Navigating the world of pelvic health doesn’t have to be daunting; if this is something you’ve been curious to learn more about, you won’t want to miss all of the knowledge and goodness Dr. Lindsay has to share in this episode!
