As a (retired) snowboarder, I am certain I have had a number of tailbone injuries.

But since I started snowboarding at 16 and ended sometime in my 20’s, I can’t seem to remember any super specific falls on my tailbone.

However, last week it took a BIG fall on my tailbone when I fell down a flight of hardwood stairs.

Ugh! You just don’t bounce up off of the floor in your 30’s you know what I mean?

But all of these bumps to your bottom can take a toll! They can fracture bones or create bruises, that leave us gingerly moving around for a few weeks.

This can impact how our pelvic floor and hips function, and create long-term problems that last way beyond tissue healing.

AND this can work the other way! We can feel tailbone pain when our pelvic floor muscles are mad WITHOUT having a fall onto our tailbone.

So, if you are dealing with tailbone pain or can recall a moment when you fell on your tailbone, today’s blog is for you.

I go over all of the different symptoms that can be associated with tailbone pain or a fall on your tailbone.

And spoiler alert, it has to do with your pelvic floor!

I am sad to say it but there are a lot of people out there who have tried pelvic floor PT, and it didn’t work.

If you have experienced this, it can leave you discouraged and feeling hopeless.

And you are certainly not alone.

If you have tried pelvic floor PT in the past and it didn’t work, this week on the blog I explain 3 reasons why that may be.

I also encourage you to try again. Even when things feel hopeless, frustrating and dark.

There is always another path you can take. There is always something else to try. It can be hard to do sometimes, but keeping an open mind and believing in your potential to heal will eventually work.

For those of you feeling discouraged today, this blog is for you. Holding you close in my heart!

Many people, (most people really), need help with their pelvic floor.

But for those of you that haven’t gotten around to seeing a pelvic floor physical therapist (yessss I am calling you out today!)

You have probably wondered at some point or are currently wondering what you can do to help your pelvic floor at home, on your own!

Are there “safe” exercises that you can do to help yourself without aggravating your symptoms?

And while there is no replacement for high quality, one-on-one care...

There are things your can do at home to start improving your symptoms!

What are they? This week on the block I go through what exercises you can do at home, by yourself, to help your pelvic floor.

Being a parent, especially of young children, is a LOT of physical labor.

We find ourselves holding kids that weight 20+ lbs for hours...even DAYS at a time!

We hold them while climbing stairs, while hiking, while checking out at the grocery store...

When in our lives do we lift and carry so much weight for such extended periods of time?

Never! Really. So even if you lift heavy at the gym, you don’t typically carry your weights home and cook dinner with one on your hip.

So what happens when we don’t have the strength to manage the loads we are carrying?

We get the strength from somewhere else. And for many of us, that can mean places that we do not always want carrying the load.

Like our pelvic floors for example! We can end up bearing down on our pelvic floor to gain strength for activities we need shoulder strength for.

And this in turn can cause prolapse.

So what can you do to improve your shoulder strength? This week on the blog I let you know!

There is a lot of fear and confusion around movement during pregnancy...

And understandably! We want to avoid doing things that might not be optimal or make it harder to recover postpartum.

But this often means wading through internet landmines for an answer, which is anxiety provoking to say the least!

So, is twisting or adding spinal rotations to our routine one of those things we should avoid during pregnancy?

This week on the blog I unpack twisting during pregnancy.

Is it safe? Is it not safe? I’ll help you navigate it all.

It’s a cringy story because so many of us have lived it...

It’s the story of doing 10, 20, 100’s of crunches just to find...NO results.

Ugh!

This is so often the experience of postpartum moms trying to find some way to heal their abdominal region postpartum.

But it’s not just postpartum moms that experience this frustration.

Men and women in all stages of life feel frustrated by the lack of results generated from hours of ab work.

So how is it possible to continually work your core and get no results? Or even worse, abs that look even more distended following a work out?

There are a lot of factors that go into healing an abdominal wall, or even being able to use your abs at all for an ab exercise.

One of them is how you are doing your ab workout.

Yep! Form and technique are number one in my book. If you’re going to work your abs, let’s at least do it right!

This week on the blog I break down a crunch and coach you through the elements that should and should not be present while doing a perfect crunch.

I had heard about the lack of C-Section recovery assistance before having my kiddos (2 unplanned C-Sections)...

I had seen all of the memes and posts about how much physical therapy is prescribed following a knee surgery vs abdominal surgery...

(3x a week for 6 weeks for knee surgery, zero for abdominal surgery/C-Section)

But it’s one of those things where, until you’re going through it, it’s hard to understand how big the problem really is.

After a C-Section, moms are handed a baby and a pat on the back.

“Good luck! You’ll be a great mom!”

Zero information is provided around how to get out of bed, how to p**p, how to, well, survive.

And two weeks later, you have to climb into a car, drive your fresh wound back to the hospital/doctor’s office, and have a provider, (not necessarily your surgeon even), peer briefly at your incision and let you know you’re “good.”

And then you survive, and figure it’s all normal. It’s just how it is. It’s what all women deal with, and we are socialized to think that’s okay.

As a pelvic floor physical therapist and movement specialist, I spend a large part of every week thinking, learning, and studying movement mechanics and how to restore them when they’ve gone awry.

And it has taken me YEARS, and will take more years, to recover from 2 pregnancies and 2 C-Sections.

Soooooo what about the moms that are not physical therapists? That don’t even know help is out there?

The journey can be long and convoluted, but now you are in the right place. I am here to help.

This week on the blog I have some quick tips on early C-Section recovery.

But no matter where you are in your recovery, whether it’s days or years, there is hope and there is help.
