✈️ Travel can throw off more than your routine—

It can impact your digestion and pelvic floor, too. If you notice constipation, bloating, or discomfort during or after trips, it’s often related to changes in hydration, movement, and pelvic floor coordination.

The good news? This is something you can improve with the right support.

If this tends to happen every time you travel, you don’t have to just manage it—we can help you feel more comfortable and regular.

Send us a message or book a visit to get a personalized plan before your next trip.

✨FUN FACT FRIDAY: PELVIC FLOOR EDITION ✨

🔹The pelvic floor is not just 1 muscle
🔹 Everyone has a pelvic floor

05/04/2026

Traveling soon and wondering how your body will handle a long car ride? 🚗

If you’ve ever dealt with pelvic pressure, urgency, or discomfort during travel, you’re not alone—and it doesn’t mean you just have to “push through it.”

A few small shifts can make a big difference:

💙 Staying hydrated (instead of restricting fluids)
💙 changing positions often
💙 taking movement breaks
💙 allowing your breath and belly to stay relaxed can all help support your pelvic floor on long travel days.

The goal isn’t to be perfect—it’s to give your body the support it needs so you can actually enjoy the trip.

If you’re local to the Powell / Columbus, Ohio area and want a personalized plan before your next trip, pelvic floor physical therapy can help you feel more prepared and at ease.

Send us a message or book your visit today—we’d love to support you.

✨Rib Mobility✨

As we know from previous weeks, thoracic rotation is a great movement for our pelvic floor. This week's exercise is a sidelying thoracic rotation stretch, however, some call it a book opener. This wonderful move may look like just a back stretch but really it’s a pelvic floor exercise focused on rib mobility. When the rib cage moves better, pressure is shared better. When pressure is balanced, the pelvic floor doesn’t have to grip which will ultimately improve pelvic tension and make hip joints happier.

The move: Side Lying Thoracic Rotation

How to do it 👇

1️⃣ Lay on your right side with hips and knees bent to 90 degrees. Shoulders, hips, and ankles should be stacked. Extend arms out in front of you with palms together.
2️⃣ As you exhale, slowly rotate your top arm across your body, opening your chest toward the ceiling. Allow your eyes and head to follow your hand
3️⃣ Keep knees stacked and pelvic stable (no rolling backwards)
4️⃣ Inhale at the end range and return to starting position
5️⃣ Perform 6-10 reps per side with slow and controlled breathing

⚠️Form tip: Think “Let my ribs rotate,” “Breathe into the back of my ribcage,” “Let my pelvic floor soften as I inhale” ⚠️

Hi all! I posted about a week ago about a drive we are doing in partnership with and to support Domestic Violence shelter. Just wanted to repost as today is our last day to collect donations.

One common question was if used clothes and bedding are accepted as long as they are in good condition and YES they are 😊

We will be at the clinic until 5:30pm tonight for anyone wishing to drop things off. We keep the door closed for privacy during treatments but you can just set donations in the front hallway by our door and we will bring them in between patients.

Thank you SO much to those who have already donated, we are so grateful!

If you’d like to donate monetarily, you can do so by scanning the QR code or going https://givebutter.com/supporting-turning-point-6-fundraising-drive-5eqy4q

Thank you again so much for your support💕

Returning to exercise after pregnancy can feel confusing, especially when you’ve been “cleared,” but your body doesn’t quite feel ready. The truth is, postpartum recovery isn’t about rushing back into workouts-it’s about rebuilding your foundation first.

Starting with core and breath connection, gradually increasing strength, and giving your body time to adapt can make all the difference in how you feel long-term. A supported return to movement helps you feel stronger, more confident, and more in tune with your body.

If you’re in the Powell, OH area and unsure where to start, pelvic floor therapy can guide you every step of the way.

✨ You don’t have to figure this out alone.

✨Mobility and Nervous System Regulation✨

Thoracic rotation is another great movement for getting those ribs moving, which we know will improve diaphragm and pelvic floor function. It also is really great in relaxing the nervous system. Your nervous system has both your sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight) and your parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest). A HUGE number of your sympathetic nervous systems come from nerve roots in your thoracic spine and then send and receive signaling to your thoracic and abdominal organs like your heart, lunges, and gut.

When the thoracic spine is stiff, it can put additional strain on these nerve roots, providing an environment where they may perceive more stress than needed.

Maintaining mobility in this area is a cheap and easy way to give your nervous system what it needs to feel happy.

The move: Thoracic Rotation

How to do it 👇

1️⃣ Grab your trusty foam roll and lay it parallel along your spine so that you are laying on top of it. A 3 foot foam roll is best because for most people, this will support your head all the way to your tailbone. If you don't have a 3 foot foam roll, grab some beach towels, lay them on top of each other and then roll them up.
2️⃣ Place your hands on the ground for balance and you can separate your feet as narrow or wide as you wish in order to feel stable.
3️⃣ Keeping your sacrum (the bone in the back of the pelvis) on the foam roll, gently drop 1 hip toward the ground as you turn your head the other way. This will be a small movement.
4️⃣ Hold 1-2 seconds and then drop the other hip and turn your head the other way.
5️⃣ Side to side counts as 1 rep. Do 20 to each side 1 time per day

⚠️Take note of how you feel afterward. Do you feel looser? Is it easier to stand upright, turn your head, breath and/or take your arms overhead?⚠️

There’s something so powerful about feeling truly seen, heard, and supported during pregnancy and birth.

In my conversation with Kelli Blinn, we talked about how doulas help guide you through the unknown, support your partner, and advocate for your preferences along the way.

If you’re building your birth “dream team,” this is a must-watch 💛

Postpartum core recovery isn’t just about “closing the gap.” Early detection of diastasis recti can support better healing because your body is more responsive in the early postpartum phase- but it’s never too late to start. With the right, individualized pelvic floor therapy plan, recovery is possible at any stage.

If you’re in Powell, Ohio and wondering where your core strength stands, we’re here to help. Our 1:1 evaluations focus on individualized support and care for lasting results.

Book your pelvic floor and DRA assessment today and start feeling stronger and more supported.

Today I'm going to share one of my favorite exercises to help stabilize your pelvis, trunk and hips. This is a movement that can be done without any equipment and helps strengthen muscles all the way from your arms to your sacroiliac (SI) joint. Improving strength throughout the shoulder, back and pelvis helps reduce strain on the pelvic floor.

The move: Prone Lat Raise

How to do it 👇

1️⃣ Lay on your stomach with your arms down by your side, a small towel roll under your forehead and your chin just lifted off the ground
2️⃣ Lift your arms off the ground so that your wrists move toward the back of the hips and your shoulder blades squeeze together
3️⃣ Gently lift the chest pulling the shoulder blades down toward your pelvis and hold for 5 seconds, keeping your feet on the ground
4️⃣ Do this 10-20 times to strengthen your latissimus dorsi (lats) muscle.
