How postpartum care impacts long-term health | Marcy Crouch | TEDxUTulsa

For decades, proper health care for postpartum women has largely been neglected. Health issues like muscle tearing and depression, which are common after childbirth, get a lot of attention and research when they affect other groups of patients. It's time we give postpartum women the same care and focus. In this talk, Dr. Marcy seeks to provide postpartum care the recognition it deserves through her own experiences in her practice, comparisons to similar health issues, and the key steps we can take to disrupt the stigma surrounding this common medical issue and introduce better preparational practices to reduce the postpartum ailments for women. Dr. Marcy Crouch received her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from the University of Southern California in 2010. She went on to complete a Women’s Health Residency program in Dallas, TX to obtain her WCS, becoming a Board Certified Clinical Specialist in Women’s Health Physical Therapy. She has taught pregnancy and sexual health courses at the University level, worked in private practice and hospital outpatient clinics, and owned a clinic. Known as @thedowntheredoc on social media, she has spoken at national events, contributed her expertise to popular blogs and magazines, and featured on mainstream TV shows to have candid and powerful women's health conversations. After a decade in the clinic, she decided to create an online program for women and birthing persons everywhere called TheDownThereDoc™ and DownThereDoneRight, the new standard for birth prep and recovery. Through this, she is working towards changing the way women are preparing for their births and elevating postpartum care. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
