We both have this conversation with patients and clients so often that we are very overdue on making an episode about it! Physical Therapists all go to PT school and have the same extensive orthopedic training. The difference with a Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist, is that they completed additional, and very in depth training, to specialize in all things related to the pelvis and women's health. Therefore, it doesn't make any sense for women in their child bearing years to see a traditional orthopedic PT for their hip pain, back pain, etc - when a Pelvic Floor PT is well trained to treat all of the same ortho needs, in additional to all things related to the pelvis, hips, back, pregnancy, postpartum, etc. It saves many women a lot of time and money going right to the PFPT who is able to look at the big picture at this phase of life, and treat accordingly!

This is such a common conversation! Both of us often see patients and clients who are dealing with an injury, and also want to keep up with their fitness at the same time, and are unsure how to proceed. It can be scary, because it feels like rest is the safest thing to do. However, there is so much you can do to work on your rehab, work around the injury, and of course go harder with other body parts that shouldn't have to suffer from lack of training in the mean time!

This week we are bringing back part 2 of our guest episode series with local water safety expert Jenna Porcelli! In this episode Jenna explains exactly what ISR is, why the method caters to the way children learn best, and what the commitment looks like for parents. Also, since the time of this recording ISR changed from 5 days to 4!

Krista and Jenn both have children who are ISR grads, and we also both have experience with traditional swim lessons. If you aren't sure where to start with swim lessons for your child, but you know you need to do something, the info Jenna shares will help you decide what is the best fit for your family and what to look for in quality lessons, even if you don't choose ISR!

You can connect with Jenna by following along on IG @lowerbucksISR, and the best way to get information about working with her is to send an email to j.porcelli@infantswim.com. Info will be automatically sent to you immediately. Check out her website at https://www.lowerbucksisr.com/ which includes FAQs about ISR lessons.

It's that time of year again and we feel strongly about the need to reshare two episodes from our first ever guest on the Moms In Motion Podcast, Jenna Porcelli! Jenna is an ISR instructor and local swim safety expert. Since all parents are concerned about preparing themselves, their backyards, and their children for swimming this time of year, we wanted to support you in this effort by having Jenna join us!

No matter if your child(ren) are just babies, comfortable or uncomfortable in the water, or skilled swimmers, there are still so many great tips and takeaways in this episode that no parent can afford to miss as we head into Summer!

Be sure to use this episode to prepare for recreational swimming or a vacation this summer, and for sure to prepare for the dangers of non-swim time. We hope you will share it with a friend, babysitter, nanny, or family member so we can all have a safer Summer with our kids!
