Dr. Lindsey Mathews Cantu
Lindsey is committed to supporting women in the various seasons of their lives. She started BIRTHFIT in 2013 with a deep belief that movement can be the bridge to cultivate our own intuition and a trust in our bodies. Lindsey is a Nervous System Based Chiropractor, Mercier Therapist, Birth Doula, NLP Practitioner, and Strength and Conditioning Coach. Through all the hats she wears in this world, she created BIRTHFIT as she saw a huge gap for sustainable, nervous system based movement and training for women in all chapters and cycles of their lives, specifically cycling, preconception, pregnant, and postpartum women.
At the very core of every BIRTHFIT program is the nervous system as Lindsey firmly believes that nothing can heal, restore, and grow without the nervous system being regulated and nourished. She vibes on the Polyvagal Theory of our Autonomic Nervous System as it explains the importance of the feeling of safety and adaptive physiological states shifts based on cues from our environment and relationships. Lindsey believes that a baby is a hitchhiker on the mother’s nervous system; and therefore, the expression of conception, pregnancy, birth, and healing postpartum for mom and baby will largely be dependent on the range of motion of the mother’s nervous system.
Lindsey has taken BIRTHFIT from small classes in a garage gym to virtual programs that reach thousands across the globe at one time, while at the same time teaching BIRTHFIT Leaders and Coaches on how to best show up in their communities.
Beyond BIRTHFIT, Lindsey works in her chiropractic wellness practice, Willow Haus, that she cofounded with Dr. Bria and Matt Mutch. Majority, if not all, of her clientele that she sees in office are women and pediatrics. In her spare time, Lindsey enjoys connecting with her husband Lance, working in her garden, and taking long, slow walks.
Lindsey’s core values are LOVE, FREEDOM, and CONNECTION.
