A couple of weeks ago I went back to Edmonton for my 10 year physio school reunion! It was great to catch up with people that I hadn't seen in years and also to visit the U of A campus again

01/10/2024

It's been 10 years but I can still remember the anxiety when I received the email from the Canadian Alliance of Physiotherapy Regulators saying that I had passed was exam and was licensed to work as a in Canada. This is what I have wanted to do since I was 16, and really the only career that I ever really considered.

I am quite proud of what I have achieved in the last decade. The enthusiasm that I had as a new graduate is still there, only now it is combined with the wisdom and experience of treating hundreds, maybe even thousands, of patients. I have taken numerous post-graduate courses, all of which have helped shape the way that I practice today. I no longer consider myself to be a "traditional" physiotherapist and I am so proud of the service that I provide and all of the patients that I am able to help. The journey of being a clinic employee, to contract work at a clinic, to owning my own business and working out of my home has been rewarding as well and I can quite literally say that I am now in a place where I am working in my dream environment.

I can't wait to see what kinds of growth, opportunities and rewards the next 10 years brings! 🙏

And just like that, I am on maternity leave! This feels like it has come up really quickly but I also feel very ready. Excited for baby and what the next year will bring!

Are you experiencing problems "down there" with going to the bathroom, s*x, or have symptoms like pain and pressure? You could benefit from seeing a pelvic health physiotherapist! Pelvic health physios address concerns like incontinence (urinary or f***l), urgency, pain with s*x or insertion of menstrual products, and pressure in the va**na or re**um. They can help with recovery after any type of uro-gynecological surgery or cancer treatment, and they also treat pregnant and postpartum patients to help prepare the body for birth (either va**nal or cesarean) and to recover after birth.

A pelvic health physiotherapy appointment will start with a detailed health history and determination of the goals and needs of the patient. Pelvic health physiotherapists take special training to assess the muscles of the pelvic floor with an internal va**nal or re**al exam, however this is not necessarily done at every appointment. Some patients are not comfortable with an internal exam and this is 100% ok. There are numerous muscles of the pelvis and hips that can be assessed and treated externally and they are very relevant to pelvic floor function. Keep in mind that a pelvic floor physio is still a regular physio and that it is still important to look at the relationship of different areas of the body, rather than focusing just on the problem area. The Integrated Systems Model pairs very well with pelvic health physiotherapy. For example, some patients have an improvement in pelvic floor muscle recruitment with a correction of their thorax/ribs.

Many people feel embarrassed, don't like to talk about problems with their pelvic floor, or just assume that the problems they are having are normal. (How many moms have we heard say "I can't jump and run around since I had my kids, but that's normal right?") Remember that you are not alone and all of the symptoms or situations discussed in this blog post are very treatable! If you think that pelvic floor physiotherapy might be right for you don't hesitate to reach out or book an appointment.

Did you know that you can access physiotherapy in BC directly, without a referral from a doctor? Physiotherapists are trained to assess and diagnose injuries involving muscles, bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, nerves and more. In fact, we are actually the experts in this area! Time is of the essence when you get injured and you will recover faster the sooner you start treatment. So don't wait- book a physio appointment as soon as you can after injury! You can still see your doctor, as they are an important part of the collaborative healthcare team. But don't wait for the doctor to tell you, come see physio right away.

May is National Physiotherapy Month Physiotherapists have a broad scope of practice and can help you with all kinds of things like back pain, headaches, tennis elbow, shoulder pain, sprained ankles and more! And did you know that you DO NOT need a doctor's referral to come to physiotherapy? Did you also know that you should go to physio if you get a concussion, before and after you have a baby, or even to do preventative screening and stop an injury before it happens? If you are wondering if you, or someone you know, could benefit from physiotherapy please send me a message! I would love to chat with you!

Did you know that concussions are one of the most common injuries in soccer? And that pre-season testing is one of the best tools for diagnosing and managing concussions? Baseline testing takes 30 minutes and it billable under physiotherapy benefits. Testing can be completed virtually or in-person and group rates are available.
