Description

In this episode, I talk with Dr. Kenael Segal, PT, DPT, who works in alternative and holistic health services, about the importance of pelvic health from a holistic perspective. Dr. Kenael shares her journey from teaching to becoming a pelvic floor physical therapist, shaped by her own experiences with pelvic health challenges. We dive into how awareness of women’s health has evolved, the realities of postpartum recovery, and why individualized care is so essential.

 

We also discuss the emotional weight that comes with pelvic health struggles, the power of community support, and the value of ancestral knowledge and holistic practices in healing. Dr. Kenael brings such a unique perspective on balancing logic with spirituality in recovery, and she reminds us that motherhood is never a finished chapter—it’s an ongoing journey of learning, adapting, and growing.
