The Healing Core

The Healing Core is a women’s health podcast that goes beyond symptoms to uncover the root causes of chronic pain, hormone imbalances, pelvic floor dysfunction, and gut health issues.

Hosted by Dr. Maria Muto Rodriguez, a women’s health physical therapist and founder of Holistic Physio, this show connects the dots between the nervous system, hormones, pelvic health, and stress. Through solo episodes and conversations with experts in women’s health and holistic medicine, you’ll gain the tools and understanding needed to support true, lasting healing.

If you’re tired of quick fixes and ready to understand your body on a deeper level, this podcast will help you heal from the inside out—starting at the core.
