Poised Pelvic Society PT and Quality of Life Enthusiast🙅‍♀️💦 Facilitating total body relief through Awareness, Education

Come with me as I go get my IUD with the OBGYN in town… because today the pelvic floor PT is the one on the table. 😅

I spend most of my days helping patients through pelvic exams, procedures, and pelvic floor symptoms — but today I’m on the patient side of things.

A good reminder that pelvic health providers need pelvic health care too.

Also a reminder that it’s completely normal to feel nervous, ask questions, and advocate for yourself during appointments like this. Your comfort matters.

Even pelvic floor PTs have to practice what we preach. 💁‍♀️

Hey Mama,

If you’re dealing with:
• leaking when you run, sneeze, or jump
• pelvic pressure or heaviness
• pain with exercise or intimacy
• a core that just doesn’t feel the same after babies

You are not broken and you definitely don’t have to “just live with it.”

Pregnancy, delivery, lifting tiny humans, lack of sleep, and doing everything for everyone else can take a toll on your body — especially your pelvic floor.

The good news? These issues are treatable. And you deserve to feel strong, supported, and confident in your body again.

Consider this your official invite to take care of you for once. 💛

“Your pelvic floor is weak.”

That’s what a lot of people are told when they have leakage, pain, or urgency.
But many times… the issue isn’t weakness at all.

A tight, overactive pelvic floor can cause the exact same symptoms.

And muscles that are constantly gripping can’t contract well when you actually need them to.

This is why pelvic floor PT always starts with an assessment, not just a sheet of Kegels.

Sometimes the first step to getting stronger is actually learning how to relax.

Leak when you run.
Hip pain after workouts.
Plantar fasciitis that won’t go away.

These might seem like totally separate problems… but they’re often connected.

Your body works as one system. When the foot, hip, and pelvic floor aren’t working together, something has to compensate — and that’s when pain or leakage can show up.

Treating the pelvic floor isn’t just about the pelvis. It’s about the whole chain.

If you’ve been chasing symptoms without getting answers, it might be time to look at the bigger picture.

If testing is negative and symptoms persist, it’s time to consider pelvic floor PT.

Chronic pelvic pain in men is often musculoskeletal.

Pelvic floor PT can — and should — be fun. 🤍

If you think pelvic floor therapy is:
• Awkward
• Clinical and cold
• Just lying on a table doing Kegels
• All serious, no movement

That’s not how we do it.

Yes, we treat leaking.
Yes, we treat pelvic pain.
Yes, we treat prolapse, postpartum recovery, hip and back issues.

But we also:
✨ Lift
✨ Squat
✨ Laugh
✨ Problem-solve real life
✨ Celebrate wins (big and small)

Healing doesn’t have to feel heavy.
You’re allowed to feel empowered.
You’re allowed to move.
You’re allowed to enjoy the process.

Your pelvic floor is part of your body — and your body was designed to move, adapt, and be strong.

We believe rehab should feel supportive, educational, and yes… even fun.

Because when you’re comfortable, confident, and actually enjoying your sessions?
That’s when real progress happens. 💪

Hot take: I never give my patients crunches for their “core.” 👀

Why?
Because crunches mostly target your re**us abdominis (the 6-pack muscles) — not the deep core system that actually supports your pelvic floor.

Your deep core = diaphragm + transverse abdominis + pelvic floor + multifidus.
They are designed to work together to manage pressure and stabilize your body during real-life movement.

Crunches can:
❌ Encourage breath holding
❌ Increase downward pressure
❌ Reinforce gripping/over-bracing
❌ Exacerbate poor pressure management (hello leaking, heaviness, doming, back pain)

Instead, I want to see coordination — not just effort.

This is why you’re seeing me blow up a balloon on my side 🎈
Because this taps into the transverse abdominis and breath mechanics, which directly coordinate with the pelvic floor.

When you exhale against resistance (like a balloon), you:
✨ Activate the deep core
✨ Improve pressure control
✨ Support the pelvic floor naturally
✨ Train your core the way it functions in real life

If you’ve been doing endless crunches but still dealing with leaking, pressure, back pain, or core weakness,
it might not be a strength issue…
it might be a strategy issue.

Train the system, not just the six-pack. 💪

Think pelvic floor PT only treats the pelvic floor?
Think again 👀

This is after one treatment session.
Same patient.
Same squat.
Very different movement.

Before: hip hike, compensation, poor load transfer.
After: smoother, more balanced, efficient squat.

Because your pelvic floor does NOT work in isolation.
It’s part of a pressure system that includes your:
• Hips
• Core
• Breath
• Low back
• Rib cage
• Even your foot stability

If the hip isn’t doing its job, the pelvic floor often overworks.
If the core isn’t coordinating, the pelvic floor takes the hit.
If movement patterns are off, symptoms show up as leaking, pain, heaviness, or instability.

Sometimes the fastest way to help the pelvic floor…
is to treat something else.

POV: Your kids have been using you as a jungle gym since 6:37am.

Climbing on your hips.
Hanging on your neck.
Launching themselves into your arms.
Requesting to be picked up 47 times.

Okay… let’s turn this into your pelvic floor workout for the day 👏

Bring the kids along for your workout (because let’s be honest, they already are).

If you’ve been told:
• “Just do more Kegels.”
• “Pain with s*x is normal after babies.”
• “Leaking happens to everyone.”
• “Your back pain isn’t related.”

And then in one session you realize…
Your pelvic floor isn’t weak — it’s overactive.
Your core isn’t broken — it’s just uncoordinated.
Your symptoms aren’t random — they’re connected.

This is my favorite part.

When education replaces fear.
When clarity replaces confusion.
When your body finally makes sense.

Pelvic floor PT isn’t about quick fixes.
It’s about finally getting the right information.

And sometimes… that changes everything in one visit. 💁🏼‍♀️

We make women feel seen when they’ve been dismissed.
We make them feel heard when they’ve been told “that’s just normal after kids.”
We make healing possible when they were told to just live with it.
We make patient-specific programs that address the root cause — not just the symptoms.
We make learning your anatomy empowering (and yes, even fun).
We make sneezing without leaking possible again.
We make lifting your kids pain-free again.
We make confidence come back.

This work isn’t just a job.
It’s restoration.
It’s education.
It’s advocacy.

It’s raising the standard of care for pelvic health.
