The Optimal Body 226 | What is Hip Dysplasia & What Can you Do?
Diagnosed with hip dysplasia? DocJen and Dr. Dom discuss what the hip dysplasia diagnosis is and how it presents in the body. They discuss its prevalence amongst females and newborns and what to do to support a baby's hip, especially considering the use of devices. Finally, they discuss safe management with a physical therapist in person with guidance on active mobility and strength of what is available within the hip.
We're bringing the Jen Health community together to do the FULL BODY LOW IMPACT PLAN together starting on Monday, August 1st.
