Ever get struck with a strong, sudden urge to p*e that seems to come out of nowhere? That’s urinary urgency! It’s a complex, frustrating and uncomfortable symptom that we see in our clinic all the time. But here’s the thing, there’s so much that can be done to get this under control.
When folks see us in the clinic for urgency, treatment may include dietary and fluid intake modification, manual therapy (hands on work), exercise done together and on your own and so much more.
But a huge part of managing this symptom is counseling folks on wtf to do when it strikes. That’s what this video is all about. Shout out to for the amazing presentation last week.

Pelvic floor physical therapy isn’t just about reducing symptoms. It’s about getting back to your life, so your attention stays on the moments that matter—not on where the nearest bathroom is.

Twice a month we have a clinical education meeting and this month our very own presented on what she’s recently learned about urinary urgency. She talked us through bladder reflexes and why stress actually aggravates symptoms like urinary urgency and frequency.
This presentation was SO good and the clinical conversations it sparked about managing symptoms like urinary urgency, frequency and leakage were 🔥🔥
So excited to put what we’ve learned into practice but in the meantime, here’s a little tip:
If you struggle with urinary urgency, meaning a sudden and strong urge to urinate, try pausing, taking some deep breaths and counting backwards from 100 by 7. This will help calm the part of your brain that’s emotionally reactive and engage the part capable to higher order thinking. Then you can calmly walk to the bathroom.
And if that isn’t enough, come see us for a full assessment!

Turns out the secret to a great holiday party is good food, good company, and a group of women who hype each other like it’s a sport.
Eternally grateful for each and every one of these people 💕
P.S. swipe for the best partner picture yet 🤫🐣☺️

I can’t believe it’s been an entire year of meet ups already!! Thank you to all the amazing people who joined us throughout the year. We’ve loved connecting with you and learning more about the incredible resources in our community.
We’ll be skipping December in order to make space to get our patients in during the shortened month, but we look forward to seeing you in January!!
And if you haven’t joined us before, we typically meet on the second Thursday of each month from 11:15-12:45 in our clinic.

I want to introduce myself to you all. My name is Rebecca Maidansky and I am a pelvic floor physical therapist and the founder of Lady Bird Physical Therapy. I came to Austin, by way of San Francisco, from Philadelphia. That’s where I got my Doctorate in Physical Therapy. I used to joke that I got here by taking a wrong turn somewhere, but who can blame me? I moved in July.
I’ve always been a vocal advocate of women’s rights and health. Too often I hear new mom’s say “I wish I had known..,” Why didn’t anyone tell me...” My mission is to reach more people and help guide them through the beautiful but wild ride that is pregnancy and the postpartum period. I want you to know what changes you can expect in your body and how to best prepare for them.
I also want you to know how valuable physical therapy can be for you. If you are having pain while sitting, walking, having s*x, exercising, taking care of your child... doing anything, physical therapy can help you. You are not alone. If you are having difficulty controlling your bladder when you cough, sneeze, laugh or walk, physical therapy can help. These are common experiences. If you are having trouble controlling your gas, getting in and out of bed, or if you generally feel weak, once again, physical therapy can help.
Obviously, I’m bias, but I love conservative care. I love that PT is an option that has no negative side effects. I love that I can help you reclaim your body and life. I love that I can help you avoid pain and surgery.
Ok, now I’ll get off my soap box. If you’re wondering whether I am the right fit to help you meet your goals, shoot me an email and we can set up a free 15 minute phone consultation. If I’m not, I’ll do my best to point you in the right direction.
