Is pelvic floor physical therapy just kegels? Nope! And if that's what your therapist is doing, please find a new one!

Pelvic floor PT should look at the entire body to find out why you're having issues. That often also includes an internal assessment and treatment to give us a better idea of what's going on. Looking at how you move and breath is also incredibly important to treat and prevent future issues.

Rarely do we prescribe kegels as the pelvic floor needs to coordinate and adapt to how you move throughout the day. Frequently we also find that patients have a lot of tightness and aren't able to relax their pelvic floor, leading to issues.

Did you know there's a best way to sit on the toilet?!

Get those feet supported, knees slightly above hips, and belly button slightly forward. While there, work on some slow breathing into your belly and back! This will help get those p**ps out easier and help you fully empty your bladder.

Physical therapy can help constipation? How?! 👇

- Breath: Make sure you're getting your breath into your abdomen and out of your shoulders. That will help your pelvic floor relax and allow the p**p to come out!

- Pelvic Floor: Making sure your pelvic floor is relaxing while p**ping is key. If the muscles can't relax, the p**p can't come out!

- Abdominal Mobility: If you have scar tissue or a lot of tension in your abdomen, your colon can move f***l matter more slowly, leading to more constipation! PT can work on your abdomen and make sure things are moving smoothly.

- Lifestyles Changes: Drinking more water, moving your body and upping the diversity in your diet is super helpful!

- Proper Toileting: Proper toileting posture is key! Get those knees above hips, feet supported and slightly lean forward.

Constipated? Try this!

1. Make sure your feet are supported with your knees slightly higher than your hips. A squatty potty under your feet can be a big help!

2. Drink plenty of water! Ideally, we should be drinking half our body weight in ounces to help support our body.

3. Up your fiber and diversify the food that you eat. Try varying the types of plants you eat as well as increasing the amount. See if you can eat 30 different plants in a week to improve your gut microbiome!

4. Pelvic PT! Dr. Sarah can help make sure your pelvic floor is relaxing appropriately, your breath is functioning optimally, and your colon is able to move well in your abdomen.

Are you or your kiddo on the constipation carousel?

You take a bunch of laxative for a short period of time until you're p**ping again and then you stop and everything backs up again? And then you repeat the cycle?

Did you know pelvic PT can help? Let Dr. Sarah find the root cause of why the constipation is occurring and help you get off of laxatives long term!
