A c-section is major abdominal surgery, often with very limited follow up involved after the procedure. And usually no one tells you what to do with the scar behind letting the steristrips fall off and letting the incisions dissolve.

If you are having challenges with your csection scar, massage may help! Save and send this post for useful tips

In just a few short weeks we will be saying goodbye to two of our fantastic admin team members as they get ready to go off to Physiotherapy school abroad 🙌🙌

Our team rallied together for a special surprise patio dinner to celebrate their accomplishments and to wish them well on this new, exciting journey ahead.

If you see Jen or Thanika at the clinic in the next few weeks, please be sure to wish them well! We look forward to welcoming them back as future colleagues!!

Look at the progress here!!! 🙌🙌

This pediatric client was missing school, seeing the doctor multiple times a month, and really having a rough time with chronic constipation which led to f***l urgency, pain, and f***l frequency.

When we started seeing this kiddo he was having 5-10 bowel movements per day accompanied by abdominal pain, f***l urgency, and quite a bit of distress.

Look at the progress he’s made over the last 3 physio sessions. We started off with a goal of getting down to 4 bowel movements per day and now we are consistently down to 2! His pain intensity is way down and is no longer missing camp and other fun activities with his friends.

The best part of this? He came in worried, shy, and on the nerve of tears at every session. Today he came in with the hugest smile 😃, walked right into the room confidently 💪, and gave the strongest high 5 for a six-year old 🙌.

And THIS is why we love what we do.

👋 👋 Meet Yu Xin!

She’s a trilingual physiotherapist (Mandarin, French, English) with a Master’s from McGill and with advanced training in pelvic health from the University of Montreal.

Her journey into pelvic physio started by helping family members with incontinence—and having gone through pelvic pain herself, she truly gets it. 💬💪

She supports people through pelvic pain, urinary issues, postpartum recovery & more—with empathy and expertise.

And here’s a fun fact: Yu Xin can cook over 100 different dishes! 🍲👩‍🍳🍳

Outside the clinic, she’s also into hiking 🥾⛰️🚶🏻‍♀️and leading community wellness projects.

Photos, as described by her:

💐 my favourite indoor activity is flower arranging! I love flowers and one of my weekly rituals is visiting the flower market to pick fresh blooms and arrange them at home

⛰️ my favourite song: “Take Me Home, Country Roads”🎵🎶🎵 That song inspired me to visit West Virginia to see the mountains and the country roads.

🥧 my favourite desserts: eggtart and pineapple bun with pandas coconut butter. Soft, sweet, and full of nostalgic comfort. A perfect treat after a long day!

🌲my favourite outdoor activity: hiking. I wish I can explore more of the National Parks on the West Coast 🥾🚶🏻‍♀️

As the light is shining on Fathers this weekend, (Happiest of Fathers Day to all the amazing dads that follow this account!!) we wanted to highlight pelvic floor changes that happen to men and some associated symptoms they may be struggling with.

Unfortunately men are often not as proactive at seeking help for health concerns compared to female counterparts. And care can be hard to find as many therapists only treat women. But did you know that all of our Pelvic Floor Physios treat men?

If you are or know someone struggling with pelvic floor concerns, we can help.

Thank you and for the invite to sit on the Founders panel again this year. It has been my 4th year sitting on the panel and every year I am so appreciative to have this opportunity to reflect on my journey as a Physiotherapist Founder and share my experiences with the new soon-to-be graduates.

The theme of the panel discussion was building focused practices and building community.

I started working in Pelvic Health in 2013, just 2 years after graduating from Physio school. At the time, Pelvic Floor PT was not widely practiced. There was only one other Pelvic Physio in Markham (shoutout to ) and it was an upwards battle. Doctors, rehab professionals and patients had limited knowledge of what Pelvic Physio entailed and most had never even heard of it before. It took me a long time (a number of years actually) to even have a steady stream of patients seeing me for pelvic health issues

But as I started to see more people, as people told me what a profound difference I was helping to make in their lives, the more I knew that I had to keep going in this specialized field.

As I talked about in the panel, MPH was born from an innate desire to help people - the very essence of our profession. I wanted to create a space that offered the very best specialized care, where people feel heard, and where clients feel safe sharing their most intimate details.

Reflecting on my 13 year journey as a Physiotherapist and approaching my 8th year as a clinic founder, I am filled with a strong sense of gratitude and pride.

Gratitude for every client we have touched through the care that we provide, for the amazing team, for the community who has allowed us to grow to a team of 11 specialized Physiotherapists over two clinics.
