Lauren Edwards

I was referred to Lauren from a midwife at my OB practice for pelvic floor therapy during my second pregnancy after experiencing POP. She is kind, compassionate and very knowledgeable in her field and I immediately felt comfortable in her sessions. I had complications in my pregnancy and was placed on modified bedrest, but Lauren was able to create a safe plan that resulted in significant improvement in my personal strength and everyday comfort. Although some of this work is physically uncomfortable (Lauren would never push me past my limits) by the end of the sessions I always left feeling immensely better. Her home exercise plan was very personalized to my situation and complex pregnancy condition. She was also very careful to ensure that my OB was comfortable with her level of involvement given my pregnancy complications. I think Lauren played a huge role in my ability to have a successful vaginal birth, rather than C-section, and significantly reduced the discomfort in my postpartum recovery. Before being referred to Lauren I knew very little about pelvic floor therapy. Looking back, I wish I had started even before the birth of my first child. I highly recommend her to all of my pregnant friends and tell them not to wait until they are postpartum to see her! She made my pregnancy so much better and prepared me for a successful vaginal birth. I look forward to continuing to heal and strengthen my body with Lauren during this post partum phase.
