20.01.2022 At TPS we often see patients with coccyx (tailbone) pain. . When it comes to tailbone pain it’s important to assess your pelvic floor and gluteal muscles as they are often involved and contributing to your pain. If these muscles are left unaddressed this can perpetuate your pain cycle. . It’s also important to have your tailbone thoroughly assessed - more specifically we assess your sacrococcygeal joint. This is to determine whether your tailbone is too stiff (hypomobile)... or too flexible (hypermobile). Either end of the spectrum (e.g if your tailbone is too mobile or too stiff) can lead to pain and discomfort with sitting, sit-to-stand, lying on your back, and/or core work. . Patients commonly present with tailbone pain: postnatally (post vaginal delivery) after a direct trauma to their coccyx (i.e. fall) after a long flight/car trip/bike ride after/during a period of heightened stress . . If you suffer from coccyx pain come in and see one of our friendly pelvic physiotherapists and get on the road to a happy pelvis See more

19.01.2022 How much fluid should you be drinking? . . A commonly held belief is that drinking large volumes of water is beneficial for health. However, there is no research to support this! ... A large review published in 2018 found that most adults only need 1 - 1.3 litres of fluid per day. If you're exercising at a high level or you're in a very hot environment you'll need more, and there are certain medical conditions where 2 litres of fluid is recommended. .

17.01.2022 Are crunches bad for the pelvic floor? Answer . Not necessarily Research has shown that crunches are a relatively low pressure exercise for most women. However, research has also shown that the amount of pressure placed on the pelvic floor with different movements and different exercises varies so much from woman to woman. In other words, it’s important to have an assessment with a health professional and obtain individualised advice and exercises for your unique b...ody. . Can you believe that in the majority of women standing up from a chair produces more pressure on the pelvic floor than a crunch? Crazy hey . A.k.a crunches are not as extreme on the pelvic floor as we originally believed. . . During pregnancy we generally advise ceasing crunches and heavier outer core work once your tummy starts showing. This is to protect your linea alba (the connective tissue that connects your left + right tummy muscles). . Postnatally the time to commence crunches and outer core work varies considerably from woman to woman and depends on your abdominal wall, linea alba, and pelvic floor function/integrity. . At TPS we advise a 6 week postnatal check with one of our pelvic floor physios. After your assessment we can provide specific advice/guidance on return to exercise and provide you with specific abdominal exercises to hasten your abdominal wall and pelvic floor recovery.

16.01.2022 This video is designed to guide postnatal mums on graduated return to outer core exercises. We recommend starting your outer core series with pelvic floor and deep core on/off contractions to first wake these muscles up. Then slowly progress through the different levels. Performing 10-30 reps, 2-3 sets at each level without experiencing abdominal doming, pain, bladder/bowel urgency, leakage, vaginal heaviness. Make sure you maintain correct technique throughout. With good technique you should be able to maintain neutral spine and pelvis, pre-connect with your pelvic floor/deep core prior to exertion and maintain your breathing. If you experience any unwanted symptoms during or after this series please cease and consult with your pelvic physiotherapist. https://youtu.be/SE9nTGQIjqM

14.01.2022 Tips for Sex after having a baby . 1 in 4 women experience pain with sex after having a baby. Here are some tips to help change this statistic . Explore on your own first: Going from the first few weeks of healing to penetrative intercourse is a bit like going from 0 to 100. Take some time to reintroduce yourself to your body.... . Start with external play: If you’re nervous about having sex, taking penetration off the table the first times you’re engaging in play can reduce the pressure, allowing you to relax with your partner. . Use a dilator, sex toy or start with a finger: If your goal is to return to penetrative intercourse, start with something small then progress in object size as you feel ready. . Use adequate lubrication: Dryness is common while breastfeeding and a lubricant can help. At TPS we suggest natural lubricants, like Olive & Bee Intimate Cream, coconut oil etc . Scar massage: If you had any perineal tearing or a c-section, massaging the scar can improve healing and reduce pain during sex. . Try different positions: Some people find it easier to relax when they are in control. Others may prefer not to be upright. Some positions may feel better than others - take the time to figure out what feels best for you. . If it hurts, seek help. Pain with sex does not have to be your new normal. . .

13.01.2022 Join us this Wednesday at 6pm via Facebook Live to hear Jaclyn Thurley speak about Pelvic Pain and Incontinence! Jaclyn is the founder and principal physiothera...pist at The Pelvic Studio, and has years of experience treating complex pelvic and musculoskeletal/sports conditions. Jaclyn obtained her physiotherapy Degree in Melbourne and commenced her career working privately in the musculoskeletal/sports world with a special interest in hip and pelvic girdle dysfunction. This early interest in the pelvis lead her to further study, completing a Pelvic Floor and Continence Post-Graduate Degree at Melbourne University and a Master’s degree in Clinical Physiotherapy at Curtin University (majoring in Women’s & Men’s Pelvic Health). Jaclyn provides holistic patient-centred care. She treats both the internal and external structures of the pelvis, often combining her manual therapy and exercise rehabilitation skills. When appropriate Jaclyn explores patients beliefs, mind-set and the role that their nervous system may play in their condition. By addressing both the body and the mind, she is able to achieve positive patient outcomes, restore function and improve the quality of life of those she treats. We can't wait to see you there!

12.01.2022 This is a great series to address tension at the back of the pelvis (including addressing over-activity in the pelvic floor muscles). Please consult with your pelvic floor physio regarding the appropriateness of this series for you and your pelvis. If you experience any unwanted symptoms during or after this series please cease and consult with a health professional. You can complete this series 1-3 times a day, or a minimum of three times a week. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/wHpV9cG77_U

04.01.2022 There's nothing swell about SWELL-ing! . Knee high compression socks and elevating your feet higher than your heart for 10 minutes a few times a day can help . . .... If you are pregnant, when you elevate your legs pop a pillow under your right side to place you in a ‘quarter side lying position’. It is best to avoid lying directly on your back in 2nd & 3rd Trimester. To elevate your legs simply place a few pillows under your feet so your feet are higher than your heart. . . See more
