TMI Talk with Dr. Mary
Welcome to TMI talk with Dr. Mary where we dive into non-traditional forms of health that were once labeled as taboo or dismissed as Woo. Dr. Mary Grimberg is an orthopedic and pelvic floor physical therapist who helps people navigate perimenopause by addressing the fascia, lymphatic system, musculoskeletal system, viscera , and the nervous system.
Her whole body approach goes beyond hormone replacement therapy, showing how movement and rehab professionals can play a much bigger role in this process.
