Happiest of Mother’s Days to all of the Moms out there!

May you continue to feel seen and appreciated all year long for all you do day in and day out. May you continue to find your purpose in motherhood between all the poopy diapers, sleepless nights, sibling squabbles, drops offs, pick ups, school projects, and sports games. And may you always know how very loved you are. 💕

Hi there 👋🏼 Dr. Chelsea Garvin here. I am the owner, creator, and a treating Doctor of Physical Therapy with Life Changes Physical Therapy. I began LCPT almost 5 years ago out of a desire to help more women and moms as they transition into motherhood, through motherhood, and beyond motherhood!

Over the past 5 years, my passion for this work has only grown! I especially love helping pregnant women feel better, couples feel prepared for an empowering birth experience, postpartum women regain their confidence in their bodies, women enjoy intimacy throughout all stages of life, and everyone getting rid of those uncomfortable (and rarely talked about) pelvic floor issues.

During my time with LCPT, I have spent countless hours continuing to educate myself and refining my skills through courses to better serve these populations, but I believe my experiences as a mom have taught me more than any course ever could.

I have been blessed to have the title of mom to four little ones (Graham - 5 years, Sawyer - 4 years, Cooper - 1 year and Finley - 1 year) which has allowed me to gain personal experience with: singleton pregnancies, multiples pregnancy, prepared labor & delivery, completely unprepared labor & delivery, vaginal deliveries with and without tearing, c-section delivery and recovery, postpartum recovery with and without other kids to care for, diastasis recti, pelvic floor dysfunction, breastfeeding, sleepless nights, pain with returning to activity postpartum, aches and pains from mothering babies, toddlers, and little kids, feeling like I have NO time to focus on my own body, strength, function, or confidence, and so much more!

So when you work with me and Life Changes Physical Therapy, you should know that we understand. We are here to help without judgment, without unrealistic expectations of the time you have outside of our sessions, without forgetting to take into account ALL of the factors that affect women throughout these vulnerable stages of life! This small business was built by a mom to help moms - to bring you the care you deserve in the comfort, convenience, and privacy of your own home. If you are wanting to learn more about me, Life Changes Physical Therapy, or how we can help you, call/text 940-202-9363 today!

Happy World Breastfeeding Week 2024

World Breastfeeding week is always near and dear to my heart, but this year has even greater significance as it marks 8 months of exclusively breastfeeding my twins! Breastfeeding was always important to me with my singletons, and after getting pregnant with twins I feared I wouldn’t be able to produce enough or be able to handle the stress of feeding two. I saw exclusive breastfeeding rates for mothers of multiples are significantly less than those with single babies, reported only between 8-22%.

This year I want to share what has worked for us to help encourage other moms of multiples to pursue breastfeeding and to know there is hope for exclusively breastfeeding their multiples! Head over to the blog to check out the twin breastfeeding tips I am passing down from my own journey.

Lifechangesphysicaltherapy.com/world-breastfeeding-week-2024/

I take great pride in my twin breastfeeding journey (so far) and feel blessed to have had this experience. It has not all been easy but it has all been worth it. Did you breastfeed your multiples? If you’ve breastfed multiples, what’s one piece of advice you would pass on to other future moms of multiples?

HAPPY OLYMPICS 2024! 🇺🇸

I hope you all are just as excited for and invested in the 2024 Olympics as I am! I can’t get enough of cheering on our country and athletes to victory to in ALL the sports - some I honestly didn’t even know existed! I love the Olympics as a chance for the world to celebrate displays of pure athleticism and the potential of the human body and mind with dedication and training.

Fortunately for me, I don’t have to wait every 4 years to watch athleticism in this capacity. In fact, I get to see it weekly, daily, hourly in my career working with pregnant and postpartum women.

Did you know studies have actually shown that the energy expenditure of pregnant women in their final weeks of pregnancy are comparable to some of the most intense athletes in the midst of the extreme endurance challenges? And that doesn’t even hit upon the strength and endurance it takes to push on through sleep deprivation, breastfeeding fatigue, hormonal imbalances, and so much more.

So moms, as you watch these Olympians in awe from your couch (or floor if you have little little ones) thinking “there is no way I could ever do that”, go ahead and give yourself a pat on the back. They are amazing and can do hard things and so are YOU! 💪🏻💪🏼💪🏽💪🏾💪🏿

As a mom of four little ones 4 and under, I know how hard it can be to get that exercise in on a regular basis. If you wait to be alone, in your fanciest workout attire, with all the equipment, and a full hour to focus on just you, well you might be waiting forever.

So this is your reminder from your physical therapist and fellow busy mom that SOME is better than NONE.

No matter where you’re at or what’s going on, no matter how many babies you have draped on and around you, no matter if you have 15 minutes or two hours to dedicate, taking the time to move your body will not only help YOU feel better physically, mentally, emotionally, but it will also set the foundation for your children to love and nurture their own bodies as well.

Are you having trouble prioritizing your own body postpartum? Are you needing help finding ways to fit exercise into your new daily routine? Are you needing a partner in accountability? Life Changes Physical Therapy is here to help! Reach out today to learn how we can help you get back on track and feeling like your best self again.
