I recently took Lynn Schulte's course on postpartum pelvic rehab and she was amazing! Her approach is intuitive, simple and effective. If you're a woman with any kind of pelvic pain or a practitioner looking to fortify a weak point in your treatment of pelvic pain conditions, as I was, I strongly recommend you listen Lynn's pioneering approach to solving these problems.   Lynn Schulte is a Women's Health Physical Therapist for over 30 years and the founder of the Institute for Birth Healing.   She has been helping moms heal from all the issues women experience after birth and is now teaching courses to body workers to help them do the same.   She found a common birth pattern that shows up in the pelvis after birth and knows how to effectively release these patterns.  Knowing we are more than just our bodies, Lynn works on all levels, physically, energetically, and spiritually with women to help them access their full potential.  She also teaches bodyworkers how to work with the energy of the body and how to access and use your intuition in your bodywork sessions.  She offers a certification process to help birth professionals become Birth Healing Specialists.  Lynn holds a Bachelor of Science in Physical Therapy from St. Louis University, St. Louis Missouri. A true teacher, Lynn continues to supplement her professional experience with training to complement and update her practice.   For Clinic and one on one appointments: https://centerforbirthhealing.com   For Institute and education and directory: https://instituteforbirthhealing.com/   Youtube:  Correcting the Open Birthing Pattern: https://youtu.be/JRUPAwTN1P4   Visit www.rickolderman.com for my home programs, patient stories, free ebook, blog, or my online course teaching this approach to health and wellness practitioners.    Read my book, Solving the Pain Puzzle: Cases from 25 Years as a Physical Therapist, to learn about my unique approach to solving difficult pain conditions from head to toe.
