Understanding Postpartum Health: My Journey to Wellness Ladies please do not ever try to stop peeing mid-stream! This sends contradictory signals to your brain about an essential bodily function. Just don’t do it! I will die on the hill of DO NOT STRENGTHEN WITH KEGELS! If you didn’t know then you didn’t know, but now you do know so stop the Kegels please! I say this to everyone, you need a SPECIALIST to evaluate you if you are having pelvic problems. Even in the POSTPARTUM period it is not necessarily that you are weak. You can still have tension and that tension is the source of your problems. The Balanced Method focuses on a full body approach. You are likely peeing, pooping & breathing incorrectly, plus have a dysfunctional posture even if you don’t look like the hunchback of Notre Dame. The reality is that therapy can focus on exercise & lifestyle management for majority of sessions once any internal tension and muscular coordination concerns have been addressed. Do not fear that someone will be “in your business” every single session, because that is simply not the case. I have worked with patients both virtually & in person without significant hands on work. Do I perform hands on work, yes, but is it for every single patient, no it is not! You should been comfortable with any treatment and if applicable I can teach a variety of self releases. The reality is everyone is unique and benefits from different approaches. Find a therapist that can pivot and work with you and your concerns.

Understanding Your Pelvic Floor: It's More Than Just Vagina PSA Ladies! Your vagina is not weak, it’s not even your vagina- it’s your pelvic floor muscles and news flash they are likely not just weak. More often than not, there is an overwhelming element of tension somewhere in your body that is leading to poor intra-abdominal pressure management and thus, your pelvic floor problems. These dysfunction in your whole body system result in peeing your pants, pooping your pants, having your insides feeling like they are falling out of your body, abdominal pain, low back pain, hip pain, pain with sex, and more. Are you clenching your jaw? Are you tightening your upper abs but have a lower pooch? Has your butt disappeared? Are you living like Quasimodo because you live to feed your child? Have you put yourself last because… children, life, etc? Any of this sound familiar???

Why Women Deserve Better: The Truth About Pelvic Health I may have been called to this speciality because I was peeing my pants after birth, but I realized that there was so many more problems that could be addressed through pelvic floor therapy and that there are so many women suffering from a multitude of dysfunctions in silence. I was one of them and once I knew the power of pelvic therapy I knew it was my calling and that I was going to change lives. I have finally found my passion in the field of physical therapy. I also realized that pelvic floor therapy is not all about internal work every single session. It a total body approach and while there is no such thing as TMI in the pelvic therapy world, there is also no need to be performing internal work EVERY SINGLE SESSION. Pelvic Floor Therapy, and Specifically the Balanced Method is not a one size fits all approach.

Understanding your Pelvic Floor: Overcoming Myths & Misconceptions You may or may not have at one time (or more than once) peed your pants. When this happens it’s a shock and that it’s not acceptable. You think “why did this happen?” Weakness is the immediate thought. “I must be weak and that’s why this is happening.” Then you frantically go on Google to find out what is going on or you make an appointment with your gynecologist. Somehow you stumble upon Kegels- “that’s the answer to my weakness!” This is not accurate for several different reasons. First, you don’t know if YOUR leakage is because of weakness, because leakage can also be a result of tension. Second, Kegels are not functional: Pelvic floor muscles work automatically without us thinking about activation, so in reality Kegels are NOT functional for strengthening. Third, other factors could be playing into your pelvic floor dysfunction including: posture, how you manage your intra-abdominal pressure, muscle coordination (timing of when your muscles are firing and in what order), scar tissue, areas of tension outside of your pelvis, your behavior in regards to toileting, your stress level and how you manage your stress, your diet and fluid intake, plus other lifestyle factors!
