Dr. April Dominick // #ICEPelvic // www.ptonice.com  In today's episode of the PT on ICE Daily Show, ICE Pelvic faculty member April Dominick explores the evolution of language and understanding surrounding perinatal conditions such as diastasis recti, pelvic organ prolapse, and perinatal exercise. She highlights the shift from a fear-based approach to a more empowering and neutral language, informed by evidence and clinical experiences. April shares personal insights from her nearly nine years in the field, illustrating how changing terminology can significantly impact individuals' perceptions of their conditions and enhance outcomes. April focuses on practical language shifts, starting with diastasis recti, and aims to empower listeners to communicate more effectively about these important topics.
