Dr. Taryn Kilty Time for Your Check-up Ever wonder why the magical time for healing postpartum is 6 weeks? ME TOO! The truth is…we don’t really have a good reason for 6 weeks.  The American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology’s (ACOG) old recommendations were 4-6 weeks. This guideline could be due to tissue healing time […]

Hey Mom! Do you want to join me? I am making 2020 the year of my health: physically, mentally, and spiritually. At a conference, I had the pleasure of listening to Trent Shelton speak. If you haven’t listened to Trent Shelton you need to, you can find him on YouTube, his “Straight Up” Podcast or […]

A literal pain in the butt…do you have this?  I have treated many women with this deep ache in their toosh that just does not want to go away. Usually, I see or hear from them after they have exhausted other routes such as chiropractic, doctors, or even orthopedic physical therapy. So what is this […]

To all you moms out there who have a bigillion photos of your family but you are not in a single one of them. Hand raised high on this home front. I have had to make an effort to get into more photos. Maybe you don’t like your body right now or maybe you don’t […]

Tis’ the season! With the holidays just around the corner, it is sometimes tricky to not get caught up in the glitz and glam of holiday parties, gifts and decorating. For this week’s blog post, I encourage you to pull up a chair, grab some tea or a glass of wine, and get comfy! My […]

It is 6 weeks and your doctor has given you the go ahead to start back to running…does this mean your body is ready? After my first, I was freaked out about keeping the baby weight on that I signed up for a 1/2 marathon six months postpartum. I do the thing they always tell […]

How Strong Are Your Ab’s?   If you have ever had a baby (or three), you may have noticed the strain pregnancy and delivery can have on your abdomen. Have you ever wondered if you have a diastasis recti or why you continue to sport that mommy pooch? You know… the stomach that looks like […]

Last week I announced my plans to open a CrossFit gym and Onward Torrington Physical Therapy. I had a TON of positive vibes but some misconceptions too.
