On today’s episode I joined by Emma Brockwell. Emma is a women’s health physiotherapist specializing in postnatal rehabilitation and is passionate that all women return to postnatal exercise safely and effectively. Emma actively campaigns for improvements in women’s health care co-founding Pelvic Roar, a pelvic health campaign group. She is also on the Clinical Advisory Board of the Active Pregnancy Foundation, The Perinatal Physical Activity research Group and Pandas UK. Emma has also written for Women’s Running and Women’s Health Magazine. Finally, along with her co-authors Emma wrote the UKs first Return to Running Postnatal Guidelines.
In this episode we discuss the benefits of post-natal exercise, how you can make a safe return to post-natal running, as well as other forms of exercise whether that be at an elite level or just recreationally, and finally end with some common questions on breastfeeding, post-partum clothing and even buggy running.
