Pelvic floor therapy for trans and gender-diverse people — here's what you need to know. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️

Nearly half of trans Canadians report experiencing discrimination in healthcare. For a population that already has to fight to be seen, heard, and treated with basic dignity — pelvic health care can feel especially daunting.

Trans and gender-diverse people experience pelvic floor dysfunction. Binding, tucking, hormone therapy, and gender-affirming surgeries can all affect your pelvic floor muscles, your bladder, your bowel, and your s*xual function. And you deserve practitioners who understand that.

At Blueberry Therapy, we have team members with specific training in gender-affirming pelvic health care. We use your correct name and pronouns, we explain everything before we do it, and we never make assumptions about your body or your goals.

Visibility without access is just performance. We'd rather show up with real care that fits your body.

POV: You walk into a physio clinic and there’s a vi****or on the shelf. 👀
Don’t worry. We can explain.

At Blueberry Therapy, we do pelvic health differently: ✔️
Squatty Potty in the bathroom — non-negotiable
✔️ Soft blankets because crinkly paper is cancelled
✔️ Pelvis models absolutely everywhere
✔️ A nursing corner for new mamas
✔️ A massive room for real movement assessment
✔️ S*xual wellness tools — prescribed with a straight face
✔️ Curated products for real pelvic conditions

This is what pelvic health care is supposed to feel like.
Surprised? Good. Now book an appointment. 😏

Drop a 🫐 if any of this surprised you — and comment CLINIC if you want to know what a first appointment actually looks like. I’ll DM you everything.

Raise your hand if you’ve been told to stop lifting because of prolapse or leaking. 🙋

Here’s what you actually need to know: sitting in a chair and coughing generates as much intra abdominal pressure as lifting a weight. No doctor has ever told you to stop sitting in chairs.

I sat down with Chloe Lewis, a women’s health physiotherapist and PhD researcher from the UK, and she completely reframed how we need to think about menopause, resistance training, and pelvic health.

Some of what we got into 👇
🔹 The biggest barriers keeping women from lifting and how to move past them
🔹 A four exercise starter program anyone can do at home
🔹 Why “menopause specific” workout programs are often just marketing
🔹 The new ACSM guidelines that finally lower the bar to entry for resistance training

Chloe runs strength training classes for menopausal women using kettlebells in a doctor’s waiting room. By week six, those same women who thought they’d never figure out a deadlift are flying through the exercises without thinking twice. That confidence shift is everything.

And the concept I can’t stop thinking about: strength is rented. You can’t buy it. You have to keep showing up for it. Consistently. For life.

I spent months building this speaker lineup and I still can’t believe they’re all going to be in the same room.

A globally recognized s*xologist who’s been on The Today Show. A family physician who spent 9 years as CTV’s health expert. A menopause oncology specialist who wrote the SOGC guidelines. A dual board-certified PT in women’s health AND oncology. A registered psychotherapist and AASECT certified s*x therapist. A naturopathic doctor originally trained in radiation therapy. A registered dietitian connecting pain, pleasure, and the gut-brain connection. And a breast cancer survivor sharing what it’s actually like when nobody on your healthcare team talks about intimacy.

8 experts. One day. The education that should have existed a long time ago.

The Pleasure Principle 2026 is a full-day conference for healthcare professionals who are ready to close the gap in perimenopause, menopause, and cancer survivorship s*xual health.

Last year we sold out all 200 seats with a waitlist. 96% of attendees said they’d come back. And this year? We’re down to our final 50 seats.

Morning: Cancer survivors and s*xual health — from the evidence-based approach to menopausal hormone therapy in survivorship, to whole-body s*xual rehab beyond the pelvic floor, to reclaiming bodily autonomy through treatment.

Afternoon: Lifestyle factors in perimenopause and menopause — primary care integration, the gut-brain connection to pain and pleasure, and navigating desire through life’s biggest transitions.

Menopause and s*xual health belong in primary care — and this doctor is making it happen.

Most patients going through perimenopause or menopause are sitting in their family doctor’s office hoping someone will bring up the changes happening to their bodies, their desire, their s*x lives.

Most of the time? Nobody does.

Dr. Sheila Wijayasinghe is the physician who actually starts that conversation.

With 20+ years in family medicine, 9 years as the health expert on CTV’s The Social, and her role as Medical Director of Primary Care Outreach at Women’s College Hospital, Dr. Sheila has spent her career translating complex health topics into real, accessible conversations — especially the ones most providers avoid.

She’s a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, Globe and Mail contributor, and co-host of The Doc Talk Podcast. She doesn’t just talk about menopause care, she’s reshaping what it looks like in everyday practice.

At The Pleasure Principle 2026, she’s presenting:
🩺 “The Primary Care Perspective: Integrating Menopause & S*xual Health into Everyday Practice”

This session is your blueprint for making menopause and s*xual health a standard part of every appointment and not an afterthought patients have to fight for.

Most women managing prolapse are told to do Kegels and get on with it. That’s not a management plan — it’s a dismissal.

This is the final post in our Things You Learn in Health Class prolapse series. We’ve covered causes and pessaries as internal support. Today is the external piece: why compression garments belong in a conservative management plan.

Prolapse symptoms are positional. They accumulate with gravity, load, and time on your feet. By late afternoon, a pelvic floor that’s been compensating all day is fatigued — and that heavy, “something is falling out” feeling peaks. External compression reduces what your pelvic floor is working against. That’s not a workaround. That’s smart load management.

SRC Health garments are designed specifically for pelvic support. We stock them at blueberrytherapyshop.ca because they’re what we recommend in clinic.

Comment “SRC” and we’ll help you find the right style for your symptoms and activity level.

Your postpartum body does not need to be fixed. It needs to be heard.

Michelle Gauvreau of The Michelle Method had her second baby at 41, after a double surgery at 36 weeks, and recovered faster than she did at 30. Not because she is superhuman. Because she did the work differently this time.

In our conversation, she said something that I want every postpartum person to hear:
Shut off the noise. Honor what your body just did.

We covered so much in this episode:
∙ Why the 12 week return-to-exercise timeline is more nuanced than you think
∙ What postpartum nutrition actually looks like when healing is the goal
∙ The C-section overhang and why pelvic floor physio (not a tummy tuck) is the answer

The bounce back culture is real and it is doing damage. Your body ran a marathon for 9 months. It deserves more than a 6 week clearance and a wish of good luck.

Meet Brooke Gordon. 🌸

Breast cancer survivor. Speaker. Podcast host. Patient advocate. And one of the most powerful voices in women’s health.

At The Pleasure Principle on May 8th, I’m sitting down with Brooke for a fireside chat that you will not want to miss. She’s going to share her journey through chemical menopause — what it did to her body, her intimacy, and the reality of trying to find support as a cancer survivor navigating s*xual health challenges.

Brooke brings something no textbook can teach: lived experience. Combined with 20+ years in strategic planning, an engineering background, and her work as host of the Best for Women LIVE podcast, she knows how to tell a story that moves people to action.

This is exactly why patient voices belong at a healthcare conference. Because when we hear the human story behind the statistics, everything changes.

85% of postmenopausal women will experience vaginal dryness, pain during s*x, or recurrent UTIs.

So why are we still whispering about it?

Dr. Dolores Fernandez is a naturopathic doctor, NAMS Certified Menopause Practitioner, and founder of IRIS v***a care. She didn’t plan on specializing in menopause. She wanted to treat fertility. But menopause kept showing up at her door, and she realized how many people were suffering in silence.

In this episode, we talk about:

• What GSM (Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause) actually is and why it’s so common
• The difference between vaginal moisturizers and lubricants (they’re NOT the same thing)
• Why vaginal pH and osmolarity matter more than you think
• What to look for in products if you want science backed v***a care

One thing that stood out: Dolores had a patient who couldn’t wear jeans or ride her Peloton anymore because of vaginal discomfort. This isn’t just about s*x. It’s about quality of life.

If you’ve been dealing with dryness, itching, pain, or recurrent UTIs and thinking you just have to figure it out alone, listen to this episode.

Comment 2026 for full registration information.

Cancer treatment requires patients to surrender control of their bodies.

Scans. Surgeries. Biopsies. Chemo ports. Radiation marks. Examinations by countless providers.
Then we wonder why they struggle to reclaim their bodies for pleasure.

Meet Taylor McConnachie—Registered Psychotherapist, AASECT Certified S*x Therapist, and founder of Embodied S*xual Wellness and Psychotherapy in Simcoe, Ontario.

Taylor’s practice was born from recognizing a critical gap: Where do people go to feel empowered in their relationships to s*x and s*xuality after their bodies have been medicalized?

Her session “Coming Home to Your Body: Reclaiming S*x, Choice and Bodily Autonomy Through Cancer and Treatment” gives you the tools to:
∙ Understand how diagnosis, treatment and healing impact bodily autonomy, choice, and relationship to s*x
∙ Centre personal agency, consent and autonomy in s*x-positive, trauma-informed ways
∙ Support patients’ reconnection with their bodies in ways that feel safe, affirming, and self-directed

This isn’t about “getting back to normal.” It’s about honoring that their body is THEIRS again.

Taylor is a s*x-positive, kink and queer-friendly therapist who provides training to healthcare professionals on delivering trauma-informed care. She’s an advocate for reproductive and s*xual rights who helps clients become empowered in their s*xual experiences.

Because bodily autonomy doesn’t end when cancer treatment begins—but it often feels like it does.

Join us May 8, 2026 at McMaster Innovation Park, Hamilton, Ontario.
220 seats. Live attendance OR video recording option.

Your patients deserve providers who understand the profound impact of medical trauma on s*xual agency.

I have spent 25 years helping women understand their bodies. And I have spent almost as long not fully telling you what happened to mine.

At 28, I was diagnosed with a re**al prolapse. I was engaged, training for a half marathon, building a career, and crying after every single test. Not because the medicine was cruel. But because nobody said the thing I needed most to hear.

You are NOT alone. You are going to be okay.

So I tucked it away and tried to be normal.

Years later, a second pregnancy brought p***c symphysis dysfunction that stopped me in my tracks. Then postpartum urinary incontinence that made me feel like a stranger in my own body. Three pelvic health conditions. Three separate moments of sitting alone with something I didn’t have words for.

What I know now is that the silence is always the worst part. Not the prolapse. Not the leaking. Not the pain. The silence that convinces you that your body has failed you in some fundamental and unrepairable way.

Your body has not failed you. It is talking to you. There is a difference.

I found my way to pelvic health physiotherapy at 42 — in the middle of the hardest year of my life. A marriage ending, a clinic opening, everything cracking open at once. I didn’t arrive at this work with a calling. I arrived with a history. And it turns out that’s the better qualification.

Every woman who sits across from me is the 28-year-old I used to be. And I built my entire career to make sure she never has to cry alone.

This past week I ran into the ocean at 51 — in a body that has been through things, that has known shame and found its way back to joy. Healing is not linear. It is not clean. But it is possible, and you do not have to do it alone.

Happy International Women’s Day to every woman sitting with something she hasn’t found the words for yet.

This is for you. 🫐
