24.01.2022 Thought this was lovely :) Your Mother carried you inside of her womb for nine whole months, she felt sick for months with nausea, then she watched her feet sw...ell and her skin stretch and tear. She struggled to climb stairs, she got breathless quickly and even a simple task like putting her shoes on was a huge struggle for her. She suffered many sleepless nights while you kicked and squirmed inside of her and while you demanded that she scoffed junk at 3am, she then went through EXCRUCIATING PAIN to bring you into this world. She became your nurse, your chef, your maid, your chauffeur, your biggest fan, your teacher, your agony aunt and your best friend. She's struggled for you, cried over you, fought for you, put herself second for you, hoped the best for you and has driven herself insane with worry for you but never has she asked for anything in return because she loves you and did it all on love alone! Most of us take our Mums for granted but there are people who have lost or have never even seen theirs. If you have a loving Mother who did all of this for you, you are very lucky, never devalue her worth because one day, you'll wish you hadn't! See more

04.01.2022 The PUDENDAL NERVE. Did you know it controls bowel, bladder, and sexual function? And people who have an irritation of this nerve sometimes cannot sit at all wi...thout severe pain! Pudendal issues after childbirth too. Super important, but many people have never even heard of it! Have you? Most people know about the sciatic nerve, though, right!? . Many patients have pudendal neuralgia symptoms and it is NOT Pudendal neuralgia. While others are treated for years for back problems, SI joint instability. Vulvodynia, etc., when they actually do have an irritation of that nerve. . Did you know that patients told me over the past 19 years that neurologists have said things like, I don’t treat or know much about the nerve or orthopedic surgeons say things like I treat spinal issues and lower extremity, but not at or around the pelvis. Most urologists and gynecologists don’t get training about pelvic pain. So, it’s tough for someone with pudendal nerve symptoms or pelvic pain or pelvic floor dysfunction to get help. There is help! Keep looking. And this is why we keep teaching and sponsoring courses. . When people go to Dr. Google and search for Pudendal Neuralgia, it can look like pure doom and gloom. We are on a mission to improve information and provide hope and support. So many people are misdiagnosed and just need a better treatment plan . Pudendal. Pudenda - Latin root for SHAMEFUL. . S2, 3, 4 nerve roots. There are 3 branches of this nerve- inferior rectal, perineal, and dorsal (goes to clitoris or penis). Sensory, motor, autonomic . Because of the 3 different branches - symptoms can vary: painful orgasms/ejaculation, penile or clitoris pain, severe sitting pain, pain with bowel movements, rectal pain... and more. . Let’s help as many people as we can with this type of pelvic pain or dysfunction! . I teach a full course: Pudendal Neuralgia and Complex Pelvic Pain to Pelvic PTs and MDs around the world. I it! I’m only teaching it 2 x this year in US - March in NH and August in Los Gatos, California. https://pelvicguru.com/event/pudendal-neuralgia-nashua-nh/ .

03.01.2022 For our mummas who have just had their babies <3 Please tag and share with your freinds. We have been discussing Diastasis recti so much on our IGTV so here ar...e 3 exercises you can do soon after birth. You need to ensure for the first 0-21 days post birth that you have got improved Pelvic floor ( PF) muscle and Transverse abdominal (TA) muscle activation. If you are struggling to contract the muscles then you need to focus on that before you try and add the contraction with exercises. If you are struggling, I have many tips and a variety of exercises to help you connect to your essential core muscles CORRECTLY. Have a look at our Birth2FItMum program Exercise One: If a new mum is struggling to contract her TA (often after a C-section) this position may help the brain connect to the core muscles. This position is not optimal with a wide DR but if we can't contract to the TA then you won't be able to heal either. Concentrate on core activation, optimal posture and half slide out on the exhale. Exercise Two: Hip Bridges Important that you don't feel this exercise in your lower back or feel your quads or hamstrings dominating, you also don't want to see your Belly Button push out either. Exercise Three: Bent Knee fallouts: Stay in control and keep your PELVIS still, control this exercise for best results For your full Postnatal Program join our Birth2FitMum program.

01.01.2022 Pregnancy and Postnatal safe and effective leg and glute exercises. We are often left wondering/confused at what exercises we can do safely throughout the pre a...nd postnatal periods. Here are a selection of support squats and lunges that you can do during your pregnancy providing you have no back or pelvic pain. Then postnatal they are fine to do once improved core and glute strength/function has been established. By using support it is easier to concentrate on technique, breathing, and core activation so you can still get the best out of an exercise when (a) your growing uterus is compromising your core in pregnancy and then (b) when you are rehabbing your core postnatal. Add 2 or 3 of the functional strength exercises and perform 2-3 sets of 20 reps during your outside cardio sessions.

01.01.2022 Pelvic health is heavily linked to bowel/GI and organ function. Whenever a patient comes in - we have to consider this! Examples: A new mom with mild prolapse... (rectocele and cystocele) since baby # 2. Felt that prolapse symptoms were getting much worse with more rectal pressure and golf ball feeling. Verdict: constipation making it feel worse - prolapse wasn’t getting worse (but prolonged constipation can affect prolapse) Male patient complaining of right testicular discomfort and right abdominal pain every time he ate. Verdict: Inguinal hernia - small intestines pushing through abdominal wall affecting genitofemoral and ilioinguinal nerves. A 43 year old woman power lifter (no history of childbirth) complaining she has a small bladder and had to urinate every 20 minutes. Drastically affecting quality of life. Verdict: Constipation and high tone /shortened pelvic floor muscles (non-relaxing with BM)- but this was a tricky one because she told everyone she had a BM daily. Once regular BMs and she learned strategies to relax deep pelvic floor muscles and external anal sphincter - able to hold bladder consistently for 2 hours . . The list could go on and on. Pelvic pain, abdominal pain, prolapse, bowel and bladder issues can have a huge intestinal/ GI connection. Sometimes it’s a part of the issue and other times it’s the primary issue. . Guts matter.
