🎉New Pelvic Pain Systematic Review! 🎉
WOW, what a year! This is a very belated post, but better late than never!

For the last 2 years I have been working on this review with a team of 5 amazing physiotherapists and researchers. This systematic review is live in BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology and is free access!

Our team found that multi-disciplinary (treatment from more than one health practitioner) rather than single discipline care for persistent pelvic pain had lower post-treatment pain scores and also experienced better improvement in sexual function. This is the first time quatative data have been synthesised to investigate this question.

It is important to note: while we found better improvements in multidisciplinary treatment, this does not mean that good, holistic single discipline treatments are less effective. More research is needed in this area!

You can access the article open access here:

Feel free to share it with anyone who might find it helpful.

A huge thank you to my co-authors for their collaboration and support.

💜 Our whole body is connected. Stress doesn’t just affect how we feel- stress and tension can show up in our whole body, especially our muscles (including the pelvic floor).

You may notice this as tightness in your shoulders, or you may notice yourself tensing your pelvic floor, glutes, or abdominals.

Here are some simple ways to reduce stress related muscle tension
🌿 Breathe deeply
🌿 Move- a relaxed walk, especially outdoors or in nature can help reduce stress and muscle tension
🌿 Squeeze and relax affected muscle groups- helps you to identify tension and to reduce it!
🌿 Gentle stretching- stretches like child’s pose are great to gently stretch and relax the hips and pelvic floor

If you experience pelvic pain or muscle tension- helps is available! Seeing an experienced pelvic floor physio can help!

This year’s World Breastfeeding Week theme: create sustainable support systems for breastfeeding.

Breastfeeding can be a meaningful part of recovery, but it often comes with physical and emotional challenges that deserve real support 💬💗

Breastfeeding helps reduce the environmental impact of formula production and packaging ♻️ But more important are the systems we build to support those who breastfeed — That means access to care, education, and safe spaces for those who breastfeed and compassionate, judgment-free support for those who can’t or choose not to.

More information on world breastfeeding week is available on the Australian Breastfeeding Association or the World Health Organization’s website.

During menstruation the pelvic floor muscles can tighten and become painful. Pelvic floor stretches can help to relax and open out the pelvic floor and hip muscles.

✔️Hold each stretch for 3-5 deep, slow breaths
✔️Let your tummy and pelvic floor relax and expand as you breathe in
✔️Discontinue any stretch that causes you pain

💡If you experience period pain, a pelvic floor physio may be able to help! 🫶

🤰 Emerging research continues to reinforce the importance of physiotherapist-guided abdominal and pelvic floor training during pregnancy and the postpartum period.

✅ Safe and effective abdominal exercises (including those targeting the re**us abdominis) do not worsen DRAM
✅ Strengthening the core and pelvic floor reduces lumbopelvic pain, supports labour outcomes, and improves postnatal recovery
✅ The early postpartum phase offers a unique window for effective rehabilitation due to increased collagen flexibility

A tailored program guided by a qualified women’s health physiotherapist ensures safe progression, symptom monitoring, and optimal recovery outcomes.

We’re here to support you — with expert care, encouragement, and a plan that’s right for your journey 💁‍♀️
