The Power of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Postpartum Recovery | Kristin Hauser EP 196

Postpartum University® Podcast

Postpartum recovery is a sacred opportunity for deep healing and transformation, not just “bouncing back.”

Kristin Hauser, an acupuncturist and herbalist, dives into the transformative power of Chinese medicine in postpartum care, breaking down the 'three golden opportunities' women have during their reproductive years—menarche, postpartum, and menopause.
We talk about how simple yet profound practices like resting more, eating nourishing ancestral foods like bone broth, and limiting screen time during these phases can reset a woman’s health on a cellular level. It’s all about empowering providers to guide moms through these critical times with holistic tools that nurture the nervous system, balance hormones, replenish nutrients, and honor the body’s natural rhythms for deep healing and long-term well-being.
