Welcome back to the Nashville Women’s Health podcast, this week I am joined by pelvic physical therapist Jen Le Coguic to discuss pelvic floor practices, treatments, and symptoms. We list 10 notable items to be aware of when experiencing any pelvic floor discomfort called the Cozean Screening Protocol. Our goal for this episode is to empower women to take control of their health and stay vigilant!
