The Massage Therapist Who Actually Gets Your Hip Pain | Janelle Cooper, Kinetic Restoration

The Massage Therapist Who Actually Gets Your Hip Pain | Janelle Cooper, Kinetic Restoration

Tired of being told your hip pain is "just part of being a mom"? This episode is your wake-up call.

I'm sitting down with Janelle Cooper from Kinetic Restoration, a massage therapist who specializes in neuromuscular massage and corrective exercises. But here's what makes her different: she's been exactly where you are. Hip pain, leg giving out, trying everything with no lasting relief until she discovered what actually works.

- Why first-trimester massage fears are keeping you in unnecessary pain- The difference between real sciatica and trigger point pain (this could change everything)- Janelle's "contract-relax" technique that gives immediate results- Sleep positioning hacks that actually work- Why that cheap foam roller might be your secret weapon- When to seek pelvic floor therapy (and why your OB probably won't mention it)

• Myth Busted: Massage won't put you into labor (finally, some relief!)
• Reality Check: You're not a "delicate flower" you can handle therapeutic work
• Game Changer: Most "sciatica" during pregnancy is actually treatable trigger points
• Truth Bomb: Dehydration plays a huge role in your pain levels

• Kinetic Restoration: At Kinetic Restoration, our massage treatments focus on resolving pain and dysfunction by addressing the entire kinetic chain, not just the symptomatic areas. Established in 2020, Kinetic Restoration started with a vision of harnessing massage therapy as way to help people overcome chronic pain, not just a "relaxing luxury".
