Register

Heather Jeffcoat, DPT was once again a special guest on the popular and thought provoking podcast hosted by Dr. Emily Morse. Topics include Heather's book "Sex Without Pain", painful sex issues due to vaginismus, injury, pregnancy, and other issues, returning to a healthy postpartum sex life after childbirth, and much more.

From the show's notes on SexWithEmily.com:

On today’s show Emily welcomes back physical therapist Heather Jeffcoat to talk about getting past the pain holding you back from better sex.

They discuss why painful sex issues are misunderstood – even though it’s very common, making sure you’re doing your Kegels correctly, why a second opinion is always best if you were prescribed wine by a psychologist, and how to get into pelvic shape after having children.

About Dr. Emily Morse:

In 2005, Dr. Emily Morse had an idea. What if, she thought, you could talk about sex the same way you could talk about any other topic? What if you could make sex — society’s ultimate taboo — approachable, accessible and most-of-all, acceptable?

Leveraging her love of telling others’ stories — Morse’s media career started in 1999, when she produced a documentary on the mayoral race in San Francisco called “See How They Run”. The doc itself — which would go on to win awards and even air on PBS — was perhaps most pivotal for its role in sparking Morse’s interest in having deep, meaningful conversations with individuals from all walks of life.

Since then, Morse went on to become a Doctor of Human Sexuality, co-host the famed Loveline Radio Show with Dr. Drew Pinsky, and star in the Bravo TV series, Miss Advised. She’s been named as one of Esquire’s & Stylecaster’s top sex & love podcasters, and voted the #1 dating & sex expert to follow on Twitter. She is an author, masthead contributor to Cosmopolitan Magazine, and creator of her own mobile apps.

As sex becomes an increasingly complex topic to navigate, Morse is a friendly, non-judgemental and open-minded voice that cuts through the clutter. Focused on inviting people into the conversation, versus calling them out, she aims to be a source for down-to-earth, relatable and unbiased information on sex, relationships, and all that they entail.

Testimonial by Y.L. (mom of 2)

After having my second baby via C-section I searched for months to try to find help for my lower back pain and separated abdominal muscles. I finally came across Heather Jeffcoat via a mommy blog. I reached out to her via email and set my first appointment. My first appointment went amazing … she listened to what my symptoms, check my separation and explained to me in detail what the next steps would be. Not only did my abdominal separation go from 3 to about 1 -1/2 but my back has pain has significantly reduced. I’m personally recommending all my mommy friends to Heather!

Testimonial by R.D., age 38

"I had a severe tear during childbirth that was not stitched together correctly and therefore healed poorly. Even after having a surgery a year later to remove the scar tissue, I was still having pain, and no one could explain why -- there was no overt 'reason' to explain the pain. I had tried other 'specialists' and even saw another physical therapist who had me do hip / leg stretches -- what a joke! I was about to give up and just 'live with it' until thankfully I kept searching online and found Heather.

Testimonial by Fritzette H.

I went to Heather after the birth of my third child. It was lucky, really, that I was referred to her, because my doctor had referred me to a surgeon for a possible hysterectomy or pelvic wall rebuild. Thankfully, I went to Heather before undergoing either surgery, she was able to fix the problem. She has studied extensively in women's health--even written a book about it--and was able to diagnose my problem, suggest a course of treatment (6 weeks), and then follow through with said treatment. By the end, as she said, I was as good as gold. Boy, was it worth it! Though uncomfortable to talk about, much less write about, it is worth getting the word out there. If you have painful intercourse, especially after birth or other trauma, the treatment may be as simple as Physical Therapy (with Heather, of course). I highly recommend her.

Testimonial by Jackie W.

I was in multiple car accidents a decade ago, and I have been to many physical therapists through the years without success. They found the root of my lower back pain problems and after nearly a decade of barely being able to walk I finally can again without pain. They are also the best pelvic floor pts and the only ones who found the connection between my pelvic floor and lower back problems. If you need help with physical pain, they are your answer.

Testimonial by A.M.

Months after giving birth, it was difficult for me to go from a sitting or lying position up to a full standing position without feeling that I had to remain hunched over until a bit of time had passed to get fully upright. However, after taking Heather’s course, I learned exercises to get my body back to normal. She also showed me correct ways to lift and carry my son as well as put him in/take him out of the carseat and stroller. This class was really beneficial and Heather is a wonderful teacher who made me feel very comfortable.

Testimonial by Mary L.

I started seeing Heather to treat my Interstitial Cystitis in November 2016. At this time, I was extremely miserable, in constant pain, and felt as though no one was listening or understood what was going on with my body. I have just finished my last appointment and I can honestly say that my life has completely changed for the better because of Heather and her team of PTs! I live almost completely pain free, and when I do have flare ups, I am able to treat them at home on my own. I am so grateful that this office was recommended to me a honestly cannot recommend them enough!
