Pelvic pain can feel different for every woman. It may be constant, come and go, or show up during specific activities.

What’s been your experience?

Supporting your nervous system through breath, mindfulness or meditation practises doesn’t magically cure pain BUT it can REDUCE the intensity of your pain/discomfort.

Imagine sitting on a couch watching a comedy movie during the middle of the day when a loud BANG comes from outside….you will hear the noise and be curious but in that more relaxed/calm state, there won’t be much of a response to the noise (aka auditory input)….

Now imagine that it is night time and dark outside…you are watching a horror movie and the tension is building in your body….you feel on edge waiting for something bad to happen…again, a loud BANG comes from outside and this time you jump out of your skin. Same auditory input, but a very amplified response because the nervous is stressed and dialled up.

If you haven’t explored formal relaxation practises before, these offerings supported by The Change Project could be a great place to start!

Pelvic pain relief, one gentle stretch at a time 🤍

🧘‍♀️ Happy Baby
This pose gently opens the hips and lengthens the pelvic floor.

🧘🏼 Obturator internus stretch
The Obturator internus is a deep hip rotator that attaches to the pelvic floor. This stretch targets deep hip and pelvic floor tightness.

🧘‍♀️ Child’s pose +/- lateral twist
Gently stretches the lower back, hips and pelvic floor. Combining with deep lower belly breath can help to calm the nervous system.

🧘🏼 Butterfly stretch
This pose targets adductors (inner thighs) and hips while encouraging pelvic floor relaxation. Tip: elevate the knees with block or pillows for comfort.

✨Big reminder: pelvic pain responds best to gentle, supported and breath-focused movement.

Following our recent poll, many of you asked for more content on pelvic pain - so we’re starting with the foundations.

Because not all pain means the same thing.

Some pain is linked to tissue healing.
Some comes from irritated nerves.
Some happens when the nervous system stays on high alert.
And more often than not, it’s a combination.

Understanding your pain type helps guide the right treatment and explains why rest, strengthening, hands-on therapy, or calming the system might each play a role.

If you’re living with pelvic pain, you’re not alone - and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself 💕

Pain isn’t just a response to tissue damage.

It’s your nervous system trying to protect you from potential threat. Unfortunately, sometimes the nervous system does this too well!

Which is why you can still hurt even when everything has technically “healed.”

Pain is shaped by so many things including (but not limited to!) stress, sleep, emotions, past experiences, beliefs, genetics and epigenetics.

So if you’re in pain, it’s not “in your head” and it’s not something you should just push through.

Your experience is real. Always.

The good news?
Nervous systems are adaptable, which means pain can change too.

With the right support, education, and paced exposure, we can help calm things down and rebuild confidence in your body 🤍

Hi – I’m Ella. I’m a Women’s Health Physiotherapist, Clinical Pilates Instructor, and coffee enthusiast!

I graduated with a Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Honours) from James Cook University. I am very passionate about empowering women through all stages of life, with a special focus on pelvic floor health, pregnancy, and postnatal recovery. I aim to provide compassionate, evidence-based care to help women regain confidence and reach their goals. I understand that sometimes it can be difficult to attend an appointment, so I strive to create a supportive environment where you feel heard and informed.

I have been very lucky to live and work in different parts of Australia, New York City, and England as both a Physiotherapist and Pilates Instructor. Through these experiences, I have gained invaluable clinical knowledge.

Outside of work, I enjoy travelling, spending time with family/friends and my own Pilates practice.
