21.01.2022 Why Your Self-Care Practice Benefits Other People #bodyoflife #frenchsforest #osteopath https://fitbottomedgirls.com//why-your-self-care-practice/

18.01.2022 4 Reasons to see a women’s health physio after you’ve had a baby. 1. Bladder or bowel control symptoms. This could be leakage of urine or inability to control wind when you stand up from sitting, cough, sneeze or try to increase your exercise. 2. Prolapse symptoms while some feeling of lack of support/ heaviness is normal after you have had a baby, some women will experience a definite lump or bulge. If this is you, it is important to learn to do your pelvic floor exercises... correctly and how to modify activities to aid recovery. 3. Abdominal separation (also known diastasis rectus or DRAM) It is normal to experience a widening of the distance between the two belies of the rectus abdominis during pregnancy. For some women this returns to normal with no intervention. For others an individualised, specific exercise program will help. Louise uses the real time ultrasound to provide a detailed look at how the muscles are functioning. General guidelines that you may need some help with recovery are when: The separation is greater than 3 fingerwidths a few days after the birth (the midwife or hospital physio can check this for you) The separation is more than 2 fingerwidths at 6 weeks after the birth You can see doming (ie there is a bulge between the gap when you lift your head from a lying position. 4. Prevention is better than cure While you may have no symptoms in the weeks following the birth, they can be unmasked when you try to return to exercise or you experience life caring for a baby who is rapidly becoming heavier (especially of there is a toddler on the scene as well). A postnatal assessment will identify any issues with the pelvic floor or abdominal muscles and Louise will guide you in the exercises that will assist you with a symptom-free and strong future. How soon after the birth can you see a physio? If the above symptoms are causing distress Louise can see you as early as you like. For less bothersome symptoms or a postnatal assessment any time after the 6 week postnatal check with your obstetric care provider. For some women this might be when there youngest starts school and they finally have time to increase their exercise and discover their pelvic floor and abdominals are not what they used to be! https://bodyoflife.com.au/book-online/

05.01.2022 Here is a great recipe from our Nutritionist, Bronte Bec. Greek Pasta Salad Serves 4 (as a main) or 6-8 (as a side)... 1 box Barilla chickpea pasta spirals 1 capsicum 1 large cucumber, diced 1 punnet grape tomatoes, halved cup crumbled feta 4 tbsp Sundried tomato strips in oil 4 tbsp tzatziki 12 kalamata olives, pitted and halved 1 large tin of tuna (optional) 1 tbsp dried mixed Italian herbs Salt and pepper to taste 1. Preheat oven to 200C. Deseed capsicum, and slice into 4. Drizzle roasting pan with olive oil and place capsicum in. Cook for 15 minutes. Once cooked, cut into smaller strips. 2. Put water into a large pot and place on stove top on high. Once boiling, add some salt to the water and the chickpea pasta. Cook for 6-7 minutes, drain and set aside. 3. Prepare all the other ingredients in one large bowl, and then add capsicum and pasta. If making ahead of time, wait for the capsicum and pasta to cool before adding to the rest of the dish. 4. Enjoy! This pasta salad has all the flavours of a Greek salad, but with chickpea pasta for a fibre and protein boost! This recipe can also be adjusted if you require a dairy free diet by omitting feta and replacing tzatziki with hummus. IG @brontebecknutrition
