Our own Rebecca Bruce presented at Alba Thermal Springs and Spa's recent Ageing Gracefully Workshop. She shared her knowledge and expertise on movement, pelvic health, and how thoughtful self-care can make a big difference as we age.

We’re so proud to see our team contributing to important conversations about wellbeing and quality of life.

Thank you to Alba for inviting Rebecca to be part of such a thoughtful event.

🏳️‍🌈 Happy Pride Month 🏳️‍🌈

At Peninsula Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy , we’re committed to creating a welcoming and respectful space for everyone - we continue to grow and improve on how we do that.

We offer all-gender toilets, and are updating our patient management system to include a broader range of gender titles and identities — because inclusive care starts with being seen and respected for who you are.

This is part of our ongoing commitment to meaningful change, inclusion, and equity in healthcare.

This Pride Month (and every month), we celebrate and support our LGBTQIA+ community.

You belong here 💛 and will be met with compassion, understanding, and dignity.

May is Pelvic Pain Awareness Month!

Persistent pelvic pain affects 1 in 6 people assigned female at birth, and 1 in 10 people assigned male at birth.

Increased tone in the pelvic floor muscles is often to blame. The muscles can become tender and tense causing many different symptoms including pain with in*******se and bladder or bowel dysfunction.

Pelvic pain is complex and can be located in many areas, requiring very individualised treatment.

Treatment aimed at relaxation and improved control of the pelvic floor muscles is often helpful.

Common pelvic pain conditions we treat include:

💜 Pelvic joint pain
💜 Anorectal pain
💜 Coccyx (tailbone) pain
💜 Dyspareunia (pain with or after in*******se)
💜 Vaginismus (spasms of the va**nal muscles)
💜 Anismus (spasms of the a**l muscles)
💜 Endometriosis-associated pain
💜 Bladder pain
💜 Prostate pain
💜 Testicular pain
💜 Vulval pain

Treatment may include:

💜 Pelvic floor relaxation exercises
💜 Breathing exercises
💜 Targeted stretching
💜 Dilator training
💜 Manual therapies
💜 Support belts or garments
💜 Modifying aggravating activities

You don’t have to live with pelvic pain. Help is available.

Entering menopause causes a shift in your internal oestrogen supply.

Less oestrogen causes the tissues of the v***a and the lining of the va**na to become thinner, drier, and less flexible.

These changes can also lead to a sudden onset or increase in urinary leakage and prolapse symptoms.

Good news is pelvic floor muscle exercises are here to help!

A pelvic floor physiotherapist can help you understand these changes and explain your management options.

This month, let's encourage open conversations about the menopausal experience. Let's celebrate the strength that comes from embracing change and transitioning into new phases of life.

Women are incredibly resilient and adaptable – we put up with a lot! Menopause can bring its own unique challenges.

The physical and emotional changes that accompany menopause can often exacerbate existing pelvic floor symptoms. Prolapse and incontinence can appear or worsen as a result of hormonal changes. If this is you, good news - pelvic floor muscle exercises can help!

Have you ever considered that your pelvic floor muscles might be too tight?

If so, traditional pelvic floor muscle exercises or Kegels may not be right for you – in fact they might make you worse. You may need to focus more on relaxing your muscles instead.

Things like stress or overuse can lead to a build-up of tension in the muscles, and your pelvic floor can sit more like a trampoline, instead of a bowl shape. A trampoline is less flexible and cannot contract and relax effectively.

Tender points can develop in the muscles. These places of increased tension often result in pain at rest or with in*******se.

Other symptoms include urinary leakage, urgency and constipation.

Treatment involves working on the coordination and flexibility of the muscles, before strength.

1 in 3 babies are exclusively breastfed to 6 months (ABS 2022). This speaks to how difficult breastfeeding can be.

This week we admire those mamas who breastfeed in any way.

Cheers to pumps, pillows, ni**le shields, mobile phones, cabbage leaves and nursing pads.
