Listen "48. From Wrist to Trap: The Mom Pain Connection | Understanding Compensations and Pain Clusters in Motherhood"
Episode Synopsis
Why does wrist pain so often travel with trap tension, or why does neck stiffness show up after weeks of baby holding? It’s not random—it’s your body compensating.
In this episode, we’ll explore the Mom Pain Connection: the most common compensation patterns and pain clusters I see in moms. From weak postural muscles to poor lifting mechanics, our bodies are brilliant at making things happen—even if it means overusing the wrong muscles.
You’ll learn:
The top mom pain clusters: wrist + thumb, elbow, shoulder blade, traps, and neck
How weak core and postural muscles set moms up for compensations
Why nursing, lifting kids, carrying bags, cooking, and laundry often flare multiple areas at once
Two easy tweaks you can use daily to break the cycle
Strengthening tips to fix the underlying weak links
🤍 Let’s move past just surviving the pain and start building strength and strategies that support your body—for your day job and your mom job.
Hope this episode is enlightening and helps you find joy and reduce pain.
