Join myself and Friday May 8th for an evening workshop covering all things s*xual wellness in the postpartum period 💜

I’ll be addressing the ways s*xual function can be impacted by tissue changes in the postpartum:
- Hormonal shifts
- Pain conditions like endometriosis and vaginismus
- Scar healing (c-section, episiotomies and perineal tears)
- Pelvic organ prolapse
- And more 🩷

Sarah will address the mental and emotional factors impacted in the postpartum period and how they relate to:
- Arousal
- Libido
- Desire
- Connection

Both of us will cover strategies that you can takeaway to help prioritize your s*xual wellness in this period of immense change 💜 It is sure to be a thoughtful and educational evening centering on your empowerment.

Limited spaces available. DM for more info or to secure your spot.

Not comfortable with an internal or pelvic floor exam? No problem!

🟣 We can gather information about your pelvic floor in others ways besides an internal exam.

🟣 Abdominal ultrasound (shown in the photo) can be a great starting point to tell us more about your core and pelvic floor.

🟣 We also use many other tools: assessments of your hip, core, and back function, thorough history taking, and symptom tracking diaries (to name a few!)

🪻At Empower Physio, there’s no ‘one size fits all’ approach to assessment. We tailor our sessions to what YOU are comfortable with 💜

Who’s heard about this? Using a foot stool under the feet can help when opening your bowels…this isn’t just an old wives tail! Here’s why 👇

🌸When we elevate the knees slightly above the hips during a bowel motion, it helps the pelvic floor muscles relax and the bowel passage open up

🌸 this change in angle often creates a more efficient bowel motion (AKA less straining and more complete emptying)

🌸 the knees to chest position created by the foot stool mimics a deep squat, which is the original position we would have used to empty our bowels before we had toilets!

Have you tried this yet? It’s such a simple change that can make such a big difference!

Empower Physio For Women turned 5 last week!

It was a busy and eventful year ✨
🌼Erin returned from her first mat leave
🌼 Brie fell pregnant and had her beautiful baby girl, Daisy
🌼 We officially launched our pregnancy and postnatal physiotherapy packages
🌼 We continued to grow our ONERO osteoporosis excise class with Port Macquaries Premium Women’s Health & Fitness
🌼 We completed courses in optimizing birth outcomes, improving care for athletes with pelvic floor issues, and persistent pelvic pain.
🌼 We continued our close work with Holistic Womens Health providing physiotherapy for patients and education for the Parents Circle groups and Birth and Beyond class.
🌼 We provided compassionate and evidenced based pelvic health services and education to hundreds of women.

We are feeling so grateful - for all of these opportunities, for our fantastic team, and for our incredible community. Providing care to women in need is our passion!

Can’t wait to see what the next years bring 🩷

Ci travelled to Hobart this weekend for her pessary fitting course 🤓

It was a lovely (and busy) weekend spent learning new skills with all different health disciplines.

No idea what a pessary is? Scroll to learn ➡️

Re the last slide: did you know that physios learn how to do internal exams by using each other as the models? It’s both a blessing and a curse of our profession! 😅😂

Part 3 of Tools to Help with Painful Intimacy 🙌

🪻In this last post of this series, we take a more zoomed out approach to thinking about painful s*x.

🪻 Sometimes, if several factors are driving pain, it gives us more options for treatment!

🪻A multidisciplinary team can be a game changer: a gynaecologist, women’s health physio, and/or a registered s*x therapist or psychologist may all be a part of your care team.

JOB ALERT!

We are looking for a Locum Pelvic Health Physio to join us this year from June. Ideally, we would love someone to stay with us for 6-8 weeks but have availability for up to 6 months.

We are located within a multidisciplinary specialist clinic predominantly geared towards women's health and private obstetric care. We work closely with Obstetric/Gynaecologists, GPs with a special interest in women's health and an incredible midwifery team.

We are so lucky to live and work in beautiful Port Macquarie, where it is easy to believe you are on holidays all of the time. This would be a great opportunity for a pelvic health physio whom enjoys the working whilst travelling lifestyle, or someone considering a move to the desirable mid north coast of NSW.

Please send me a DM for more information or email me at erin@epfw.com.au
