Your body holds a unique story. There is no one size fits all protocol.

Every individual has their own history, list of injuries and traumatic life experiences.

Those all play a role in your chronic pain story.

As a provider, assessment and history are the most telling to helping you heal.

Secondly, helping all the parts work together is imperative to getting better.

If you are just getting treatment that addresses where the symptoms are, you will only experience temporary relief.

Have you ever experienced this? DM me a question 😎

So proud of this client! When she first started, she struggled with upper back tension and postpartum recovery. She was short-tempered with her toddler, but our therapy and mobility ball work helped her find calm and patience. 90 days later, she's got the tools to:

🔹Regulate her nervous system,
🔹rebuild strength and posture,
🔹boost energy
🔹and whole-body resiliency.

What’s holding you back? Comment “resilient body” if you're ready to ditch your pain and stress and be ready to rerun to exercise 👇

Do you throw your back out easily? Lifting things or rolling out of bed?

Or are you not actively strengthening and doing mobility?

Imagine training your whole youth to make it to college and get injured during your freshman year.

This experience taught me so much about pain. My own capacities to push through it and my body’s incredible ability to heal.

This experience is what brought me into this field. I wanted to be a part of the Holistic system that aids in healing. That seeks in curiosity how the body moves, how the parts are connected.

And not locally. Like looking at someone’s shoulder and saying you have a shoulder problem.

But asking better questions. Like what does spinal movement have to do with your shoulder problem?

I never want to label someone’s problem and give them a diagnosis that they won’t be able to do something or I guess they just need surgery.

So as a freshman in college I learned there are other ways to heal than the traditional and conventional routes. And they can be quite simple.

As a former college athlete who played through injuries. I get it. I understand what it’s like to have chronic pain. I know what it’s like to put your body first or you won’t be able to play.

Guess what? as an adult, walking around all day is the same privilege. Sitting on the toilet seat and being able to get up when you’re older. Playing in your favorite rec sport over the weekend. Getting in and out of your car and giving your kid a piggy back ride. This is the game we all get to play.

You have the absolute choice….. you don’t need to sit on the sidelines of your life, of your kids life. You get to choose how you respond to your injury.

Choose understanding your body and curiosity about what you are learning from your injuries.

What a joy and a privilege it is to be a parent. I know I talk about how hard it is to be a mom….but deep down even on their worst days I will always remember why we chose this road as a family and the endless lessons I learn being their mom.
I am honored to be my babies mama. Truly a gift to walk along side them, hold their tiny hands, snuggle them at night.

No presents needed just lots of baby snuggles. 🥰

Repeat after me, you deserve to feel good in your body.

If you’re mothering day by day with constant aches and pains it’s going to show up in how you parent.

So don’t forget to put you first.

Comment “this is me” if these are also your 2025 struggles.

Consider your birth story when you consider being able to engage your core.

If you feel like you can’t engage your core. Consider there may be a disconnect of not wanting anything to do with that space after having a traumatic birth.

What was your birth like? What was your pregnancy like?

If it is difficult for you to engage your core, you still have diastis recti and you experience back pain on the daily, consider reconnecting with your core via breath.
Not just doing an abdominal exercise but really feeling and sensing where your core is.

Try this:

Use a courageous ball and/or a pillow and place it right above your p***c symphysis in your lower abdomen and take 3-5 deep breaths.

Now reach over to the left and take a few deep breaths and repeat on the right.

Whatever emotions come up in relation to your birth and your core are there for a reason. Allow yourself to feel whatever you feel as you do this.

We have all been there. Walking to the park. Maybe your toddler is in our stroller or a bike and they demand you carry them. Your hip is killing you. It hurts every time you lift your leg but you carry them anway.
It makes your mood much worse. When your hip is cranky, it’s going to add a layer of tension, eventually your body is going to express it in another way.

Rage
Overwhelm
Anxiety

Try the above moves to improve your hip pain, release your stress and tension and make every walk carrying your heavy toddler actually enjoyable.

When your a mom and you need to carry both babies yet your back is killing you, the kids are whining and you are ready to curl up into a ball because your physically in so much pain and you can’t handle the stress of it all.

And it’s only the beginning of the day. How are you going to make it to bedtime?!? 🤷‍♀️

I got you 🫶

Do the sequence shown in the video to release your lower back and strengthen it.

Do this before you need to go on a walk or do anything physical with your kids.

Heres what to do about it:

1. Find down regulation tools that you can use daily as a mom when you feel stress, overwhelm, rage.
2. Reconnect to your breath and core
3. Challenge yourself. Once you build a foundation add weight and add speed and agility.
