A fresh, new pregnancy guide-the first complete functional medicine
book-offering women and their partners a comprehensive approach to
maintain and enhance health and wellness before, during, and after
pregnancy. The Wise Woman's Guide to Your Healthiest Pregnancy and
Birth combines the expertise of top-tier physical therapist
Patricia Ladis-who works with superstar athletes, professional
dancers, and celebrities-with Dr. Anita Sadaty, a highly regarded
holistic ob-gyn with a celebrity clientele. Together, they have
devised a six-step protocol beginning the six months before
conception continuing forty days post-birth and beyond,
incorporating holistic principles that encourage optimal wellness
for mother, partner, and baby. Whether they are in their 20's, 30's
or 40's, this book empowers readers to be in tune with their bodies
during all stages of pregnancy, and is the first book by a
functional medicine dream-team aligning medical and structural body
issues to avoid such potential pregnancy outcomes as osteoporosis,
sciatica, pelvic prolapse, structural weakness, and postpartum
depression. Each of the six stages organizes Ladis and Sadaty's
holistic principles into five easy-to-follow aspects: Body,
Movement, Breathing, Nourishment, and Wisdom. They include
practical applications such as foods to help reduce internal
inflammation, specific exercises-with instructive photos-in each
stage, breathing techniques to lower stress, and "pearls of wisdom"
backed by science exploring a multicultural history of this special
time in a woman's life. For the first time, a pregnancy guide
considers the importance of choices you make six months prior to
conception, and the effect on genes. When both members of a couple
are calm, fit, and well-nourished, the latest science suggests that
together they are less likely to pass on negative genes to a child.
