Your body is supposed to go through big changes in pregnancy and birth, but how you recover matters. We don't think the goal should be to "bounce back," but we DO think you deserve to be comfortable, strong, and confident in your body in any season of life!

If you are curious if you have any diastasis recti (abdominal separation) or if your cesarean scar is healing optimally, sign up for a free 15-minute screen. We can help you determine where you're at now and discuss any implications for your overall pelvic health.

Give us a call at 509-730-5878 to save your spot and learn more about your postpartum body today! Free screens only available through February 27th.

Tearing during birth is actually relatively common, with about 3 out of 4 vaginal births involving some degree of tearing that often heals well with minimal to no complications. However, tearing overall is no fun, and more significant tearing can lead to short and long term consequences in your pelvic health.

Fortunately, there are things you can do to minimize your risk of a tear, even if we can't fully control the outcome!  For more details, check out our full blog post at https://tricitiespelvichealth.com/blog-1/how-to-prevent-tearing-during-birth

Clinical collective✨ We have been meeting every week to go over information or practice skills to keep us all leveling up!

Today, Karina presented updated information on endometriosis including how to screen for and diagnose it, treatment strategies, and how pelvic floor therapists can be a vital part of a person's plan of care.

Then, Dr. Marisa taught us different nervous system regulation tools including hands on interventions for the vagus nerve (hello rest and digest system!) The nervous system can play a huge role in pelvic floor symptoms and impact everything including our bladder, bowel, and sexual functions and pain and we want to make sure we are addressing our patients with a whole-person lens, including the nervous system!

Forever learning is one of my favorite parts of the job and I love that we all get to grow together!

Learning about birth was transformative for my own birth experiences, and I LOVE sharing information and tools with other expecting parents🤰🏼

We are generally given no advice or support through this huge transition which can leave parents feeling confused, worried, or worst of all disappointed by an experience that should be empowering and joyful. I think expecting parents deserve better and I want them to feel prepared so they can kick off their journey into parenthood on a positive note!

It is so rewarding to get such kind feedback from parents who have taken my Evidence Based Birth® Childbirth Class and hear their unique birth stories and how they have felt confident to handle anything that came their way.

I can't wait to guide a new group of expecting parents starting in February! There are currently a few spots left for this cohort and we'd love to have you join!

2016✨ I am honestly in awe of how much we packed into that year and grabbing pictures was a super fun trip down memory lane.

Things I'm so proud of over this decade:

💫Growing our family by two beautiful humans and another doggie
💫Believing in myself WAY more than I did back then
💫Finding my own path in my career, and not just following what I thought it "should" look like
💫A marriage that is so much stronger than our wedding day
💫Stopping to see the wonder in the mundane with my kids
💫Growing a business that has a bigger purpose for our patients and is creating great jobs for others too

Things I want to call back:

💫Doing things for fun or relaxation instead of always feeling like I need to be "productive"
💫 Spending more time outside to enjoy the beauty all around us
💫 Intentional time with family and friends
💫Feeling strong and capable in my body (some of those hikes were no joke!)

What are your reflections from the last decade?? Anything you are glad to be through? Anything you can imagine losing that you have now? What about things you want to remember and bring back to your life? I'd love to hear!

Work hard, play hard! Especially after a busy season of learning and growing, it was great to spend time together out of the clinic. I may be biased, but I think we have a pretty stellar team!💜

THIS is why we do what we do!✨🥹.

I was working up at the front desk Thursday when a former patient walked through the door. She asked if she could leave a gift for Dr. Nathan and went on to tell us how much he had truly changed her life.

One of the things she had found success with is being able to exercise again, so she crocheted this most adorable kettlebell for him. How cool is that?!

I'm proud of all of our therapists for continually growing, learning, and being able to reach clients on this level. And for me personally, especially after a few very busy months, this was such a gift to me too to remember why owning a business and deeply caring about all of the details really matters.💜

After a little hiatus, I'm bringing back the Evidence Based Birth® Childbirth Class by popular demand!  I say this like you all pressured me to do it, but you all know I'm a huge birth nerd and teaching this class is one of my absolute favorite things.

As always, I have to cap it to 6 couples and I've already had quite a bit of interest before I even put something on the calendar, so make sure to save your spot soon if you are interested!  I also honestly don't know when the next course will be at this time because I've got a lot of things I'm juggling right now and want to make sure I can give you all the attention you deserve!

This childbirth class gives tools for both the person giving birth AND the partner to feel confident going into the big day. It goes through everything from the labor and birth process, the evidence behind common interventions, comfort measures, and advocacy skills so that you feel ready for whatever comes your way. Plus, you will get bonus information from the pelvic floor physical therapy perspective!

The class is appropriate for first time parents and experienced parents alike in any birth setting. It is designed to be completed through a combination of pre-recorded lectures and live-online meetings at  in Richland, WA so that you get the best of both worlds as far as convenience and the chance to connect with other parents and get personalized information.

I'd love to have you there! Check out www.tricitiespelvichealth.com/childbirth-education for more info and to sign up!

What a year! Just like parenting, some days in business feel long, hard, and lonely, but when you look back, it feels like it went by in the blink of an eye and you can't help but be filled with pure joy.

I am immensely grateful for all of the ups and downs this year that pushed me to grow in ways I never imagined were even possible and can't believe I get the absolute privilege to do this work.

Thank you for being here. Thank you for cheering me on. I can't wait for all that is in store for 2026!🎉

Sometimes, those ridiculous visuals are exactly what we need to make it click!  What is something that you have heard in physical therapy or elsewhere that really made an impression?! I'm always looking to add to my repertoire!🤣

You've got plenty on your plate as it is with a new baby, so adding thumb or wrist pain to the mix is 👎🏼

De Quervain's tenosynovitis is more commonly called "mom thumb" or "mom wrist" and can come from aggravation in the area from a combination of hormones, swelling, and repetitive movements.

To start, try avoiding aggravating positions or movements. Things like keeping your thumb with your fingers to pick up baby, trying to maintain more neutral wrist positions, and avoiding texting or scrolling with your sore thumb can go a long way.

Pain-free stretching or mobilization around the area or specific strengthening can also help. Sometimes a splint or anti-inflammatory options can be useful too.

If you are dealing with thumb or wrist pain, reach out for support! We are here to help you with ANY part of your body that is affecting your life!
