Research Summary
The central goal of my research is to improve the lifelong health of women. Specifically, my research interests aim to enhance women’s knowledge of the importance of exercise during pregnancy and in the postpartum period. I am also interested in the effects of pregnancy on the abdominal and lumbar spine musculature and how physical activity and exercise can manage or improve the health of women diagnosed with chronic diseases. My current research projects aim to establish guidelines for physical activity in the postpartum period.
