Pelvic Care Physical Therapy Compassionate, focused care to restore your pelvic health.

Many women are told that menopause symptoms are just something to “push through” or learn to live with — but that doesn’t have to be the case.

Bladder leaks, pelvic pressure or heaviness, pain with intimacy, low back or hip pain, core weakness, changes in posture, and breathing patterns that no longer feel supportive are common during menopause… but common doesn’t mean normal or untreatable.

Pelvic floor physical therapy can support you in every stage of menopause by improving strength, mobility, coordination, and breath mechanics while addressing the pelvic floor, spine, hips, and core as a connected system. With individualized, hands-on care, pelvic floor PT helps reduce symptoms, improve confidence, and support comfort and function — so you don’t have to just live with it. 💙✨

If you have thyroid issues and this sounds familiar…
constipation, leaking, pelvic pressure, pain with intimacy, fatigue, or ongoing tension — you’re not alone.

While pelvic floor physical therapy doesn’t treat thyroid conditions directly, thyroid changes can impact muscle tone, energy levels, digestion, and overall tissue health — which can show up as pelvic floor symptoms. Pelvic floor PT helps address these downstream effects by improving coordination, mobility, strength, and breath mechanics so your body can function more comfortably and efficiently.

You don’t have to manage these symptoms on your own — pelvic floor PT can help support the way your body is responding. 💙

How to keep your pelvic floor in mind during a deadlift 👇

Stand with feet about hip-width apart

Gently tuck your tailbone so ribs are stacked over pelvis

Hinge at the hips with a straight, supported spine

Keep the weight close to your body

Inhale to prepare and create core + pelvic floor support

Exhale (or gently grunt) as you lift the weight

Finish standing tall with pelvis tucked and glutes engaged

Avoid over-arching your lower back at the top

Training with your pelvic floor in mind helps manage pressure, build strength, and support confident movement. Your pelvic floor is part of the lift — not an afterthought 💙

Closing your ribs isn’t about “sucking in.” It’s about your rib cage gently stacking back over your pelvis so your core can actually do its job. When the ribs flare open, the diaphragm, deep abs, and pelvic floor stop talking to each other. When the ribs soften down and in? They reconnect. Breath gets easier. Pressure is managed. Strength feels supported instead of forced.
Think: ribs melting toward your midline as you exhale, pelvis staying neutral, pelvic floor responding naturally—not clenching, not pushing. Just coordinated, efficient support from top to bottom.

Posture is a learning curve — not a pass/fail test 🧠✨

Most of us weren’t taught how to sit, stand, or move in a way that actually supports our body. So when posture feels awkward or hard at first, that’s normal 🤍

Your posture matters because it affects how pressure moves through your core — including your pelvic floor 🧍‍♀️🌬️
When your spine, ribs, and pelvis aren’t working together, the pelvic floor often has to compensate.

A pelvic floor physical therapist helps by:
• Teaching posture that’s supportive, not rigid 🧩
• Connecting posture with breath and movement 🌬️🌀
• Reducing strain on the pelvic floor 💛
• Helping your body learn new patterns gradually 🌱

Good posture isn’t about “standing up straight.”
It’s about finding positions your body can sustain — comfortably.

Hopefully you’ve been using this month to decompress from the holiday craziness 🎄
The stress, travel, disrupted routines, and long to-do lists don’t just disappear on January 1st—and your pelvic floor feels it too.
Mid-January is the perfect time to slow down, hydrate, breathe, and build sustainable wellness habits that actually stick.
✨ Less chaos. More consistency. ✨

Glute bridges with pelvic floor support 🍑
Bring more intention to your glute bridges with these simple steps:
1️⃣ Set up: Lie on your back with knees bent and feet hip-width apart. Place a ball or block gently between your knees and stack your ribs over your pelvis (no low-back arching).
2️⃣ Lift: As you raise your hips, exhale, press your feet into the floor, and lightly squeeze the block.
3️⃣ Support: Gently brace your abs and add a soft Kegel to support your pelvic floor.
4️⃣ Lower: Come back down with control, keeping everything connected.
The goal isn’t perfection—it’s awareness. Over time, these steps start to flow together naturally, building habits your body can rely on during movement ✨

Lunges with pelvic floor support 🧘‍♀️
When you do a lunge, your pelvic floor is part of the movement too. Try these steps to feel more supported and in control:
1️⃣ Lower into the lunge: Inhale and let your pelvic floor relax and respond naturally.
2️⃣ Rise back up: Exhale and gently engage your pelvic floor—think of a light Kegel, especially if you notice heaviness, pressure, or leaking.
3️⃣ Check your alignment: Keep your knees, hips, and feet stacked and facing forward to reduce unnecessary strain.
Moving with your breath and good alignment helps your pelvic floor work with the exercise, not against it ✨

Building pelvic floor habits isn’t about perfection — it’s about progress 💛

Daily habits like doing your exercises, practicing your breathing, and noticing tension in your body do make a difference, but they take time to stick. Be gentle with yourself as you practice — change doesn’t happen overnight!

Pelvic floor therapy is all about helping you create these small, sustainable changes. Over time, these habit shifts can really improve your symptoms. And the best part? As your pelvic floor PT, we’re here to troubleshoot with you — to figure out what’s working, what isn’t, and how to make it easier.

Every little step counts — and you don’t have to do it alone.

Your pelvic floor plays a huge role in bowel movements — even though most people are never taught this. These muscles need to relax, lengthen, and coordinate at the right time to allow stool to pass comfortably and completely. When that coordination is off, you may notice straining, incomplete emptying, or feeling like you need to go again soon after.

At Pelvic Care, we’re here to help you figure out what’s actually going on. We know this can be something you’ve never thought about before — and it can feel awkward to talk about. That’s okay. This is our normal, and we approach it with care, respect, and zero judgment.

Pelvic floor therapy isn’t just about exercises — it’s about understanding your body, improving coordination, and creating habits that make daily life easier. You don’t have to navigate this alone. We’re here to support you every step of the way. 💛
