The Dr. PT Podcast - Episode 9: Take Back Control of Your Body | PT Answers Your Biggest Questions

Episode 9

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 • Duration 55:54

If you were told you're "all clear" at your six-week postpartum visit but are confused and struggling with what to do next this episode is for you. Dr. Christine Pieton, orthopedic and pelvic health physical therapist, breaks down the biggest myths surrounding postpartum recovery — starting with why the six-week clearance is just the beginning, not the finish line of your healing. In this episode, Dr. Pieton unpacks why leaking, pelvic pain, and painful intimacy are so common after birth (and why that's a failure of the medical system, not your body), what "easing back into exercise" actually means with a step-by-step framework, how to advocate for yourself at your postpartum appointment, and what care you deserve to guide your recovery that you're probably not getting. Whether you're weeks, months, or even years postpartum, this episode will give you the real roadmap to rebuilding strength, reclaiming your body, and feeling like yourself again!

Episode 7

Wednesday, March 11, 2026 • Duration 55:54

In this episode of the Dr. PT Podcast, Dr. Christine Pieton — orthopedic and pelvic health physical therapist — breaks down one of the most misunderstood topics in prenatal care: exercise during pregnancy. Dr. Pieton unpacks why back pain and pelvic floor symptoms are so common (but not normal), debunks the biggest exercise myths keeping pregnant women on the sidelines, and makes the case for why strength training — not just walking or prenatal yoga — is essential for a stronger pregnancy, smoother labor, and faster postpartum recovery. She also takes live calls and emails, addressing pelvic organ prolapse, plantar fasciitis, vaginal cysts, and the fear many women carry around movements like squats and lunges. Whether you're pregnant, postpartum, or simply want to better understand your body, this episode gives you the tools, the truth, and the confidence to stop playing it safe and start building real strength.

The Dr. PT Podcast - Episode 6: Why Your Low Back Pain Keeps Coming Back (And What You’re Missing)

Episode 6

Wednesday, February 25, 2026 • Duration 55:30

Low back pain affects nearly 80% of adults — but most people treat it the wrong way. In this episode of The Dr. PT Podcast, Dr. Christine Pieton breaks down why mechanical low back pain keeps coming back and what’s actually driving it. She explains the three biggest myths that prevent recovery (including why rest, stretching, and MRI findings don’t tell the whole story), and reveals the often-overlooked connection between your spine, hips, and feet. Through live caller questions on scoliosis, spinal stenosis, nerve damage, and surgery decisions, Dr. Pieton shares practical, movement-based solutions that help address the root cause — not just the symptoms. If you’re tired of recurring back pain and want a smarter strategy to move better and hurt less, this episode is for you.

The Dr. PT Podcast - Episode 5: Knee Pain With a Normal MRI? Why Rest Isn’t Fixing the Problem

Episode 5

Wednesday, February 11, 2026 • Duration 51:50

Knee pain with a normal MRI can be confusing and frustrating. In this episode of the Dr. PT Podcast, Dr. Christine Pieton explains the real causes of knee pain, why rest and pain medications often fail, and how physical therapy and strength training address the root problem. Knee pain doesn’t automatically mean damage—and avoiding movement isn’t the solution. Using a real patient story, Dr. Christine Pieton breaks down why knee pain is often a capacity and movement issue rather than a structural one. She explains how weakness or limited mobility at the hip, ankle, and foot overloads the knee, why imaging doesn’t always give the full picture, and how building strength through the whole leg is essential for long-term joint health. This episode also answers listener questions about overcoming painful sex after perineal tearing in childbirth, how pelvic floor physical therapy and topical estrogen help reduce pelvic pain and recurrent UTIs, and reveals the truth about those expensive pelvic floor “Kegel chair” treatments—so you can better understand your body, advocate for your care, and keep moving well for years to come.

The Dr. PT Podcast - Episode 4: A Smarter Way to Think About Stress Urinary Incontinence

Episode 4

Wednesday, February 4, 2026 • Duration 55:55

In this episode of The Dr. PT Podcast, Dr. Christine Pieton breaks down some of the most misunderstood topics in pelvic health—starting with a listener’s question about bladder prolapse after hysterectomy and whether surgery is the only option. Dr. Pieton explains how pessaries work, when they may need refitting, and why pelvic floor physical therapy should be a first-line option before and after pelvic surgeries. She then tackles the million-dollar question: should you be doing Kegels? (Spoiler: not everyone should—and most people are doing them wrong.) You’ll learn why the pelvic floor doesn’t work in isolation, how breathing, hips, and core strength matter just as much, and what a “real” Kegel actually involves. The episode wraps with insights on overactive bladder, prolapse, hormones, gut health, and why pelvic health is whole-body health—for women and men alike.

The Dr. PT Podcast - Episode 3: Should You Really Be Doing Kegels? Pelvic Floor Truths, Prolapse Options, and Smarter Support After Hysterectomy

Episode 3

Wednesday, January 28, 2026 • Duration 55:24

In this episode, Dr. Christine Pieton discusses a very common pelvic health topic - painful intercourse related to menopause and estrogen decline - explaining how topical estrogen, hyaluronic acid suppositories, and pelvic floor physical therapy significantly improve dryness, tissue flexibility, and muscle tension. Dr. Pieton also covers footwear recommendations for balance and fall prevention, emphasizing the importance of wide toe boxes and minimal cushioning to improve proprioception alongside strength training. The episode also does a deep dive about about how to know if you have a pelvic floor problem, along with answering audience member questions about how to support pelvic floor health proactively during pregnancy, hemorrhoid management, stress incontinence treatments like Bulkamid injections, and how to find a qualified pelvic floor physical therapist. Throughout the episode, Dr. Pieton emphasizes that the pelvic floor muscles connect with the hip, core, and back muscles, and highlights misconceptions about Kegel exercises, explaining that pelvic floor muscle strengthening needs to include lengthening and contracting for best results.
