Can we please STOP telling women they're not allowed to run with pelvic organ prolapse?

16 years ago running is what kept me sane as a single Mom. One year postpartum I signed up for the Big Sur marathon because I needed a destination marathon to help me manage my feelings of stress and overwhelm.

This is something I hear from many of my postpartum patients too!

My marriage fell apart when my son was an infant. I was juggling caring for a new baby, a toddler, running my physio business and I had stage 4 organ prolapse with both urinary and f***l incontinence. Yikes!

For me, running was the only time that I felt a sense of control over my body and a sense of blissful freedom.

I share this story because many women are told not to run if they have organ prolapse or if they have urinary or f***l incontinence.

I'm not saying all women with prolapse should be running.....but I am saying that every person with prolapse or with incontinence is unique.

Each person has their own recovery experience and helping that person navigate the experience both physically AND emotionally is paramount.

Recovering from postpartum injuries is definitely NOT just about the pelvic floor muscles....it's about recovering emotionally, mentally and physically.

If are struggling with pelvic symptoms related pregnancy or postpartum, pelvic physiotherapy
pelvic physiotherapy can help.

February is heart month.

Did you know heart disease is the number one cause of death for women?

Approximately 7 times more women will die from heart disease than breast cancer.

Many of my patients verbalize a fear of getting breast cancer but l often remind them to also not forget about the importance of heart health.

Even in women who have a diagnosis of breast cancer, dying from heart disease is the leading cause of death.

Give your heart some love today and make sure you are doing everything to optimize your health

REAL TALK: Pelvic floor health isn't just about Kegels!

Busting 5 myths that keep women from feeling their best:

1. "It's normal after having kids" - NOPE!
2. "Only athletes need pelvic floor care"
- FALSE!
3. "Leaking is inevitable with age" - NOT TRUE!
4. "Pain during intimacy is just how it is" - ABSOLUTELY NOT!
5. "Surgery is the only solution" - WRONG!

Your body deserves expert care and compassion.

You're stronger than you think!

You can squat, run, and plank like a champ-but did you know your pelvic floor is the foundation of your core strength? Weak or overactive pelvic floor muscles can lead to:

• Leaking during your favorite HIIT class (yep, it happens to the fittest of us).
• That nagging lower back pain that won't quit.
• Painful intimacy that's rarely talked about but so common.

Pelvic floor physiotherapy is not just about
'fixing'-it's about empowering you to feel stronger, move better, and live without limits.

💡Tip: If you've ever leaked while laughing or felt pressure "down there" after a long run, it's your body asking for help!
