This International Women’s Day, our team came together to celebrate the theme .

Members of our team shared a photo inspired by this year’s campaign and a short reflection on what it means to them. Some spoke about what they give to gain — whether it’s time, mentorship, or support. Others shared words of motivation, their hopes for the future, and what gender equality means to them personally.

At Markham Pelvic Health, we are proud to have a 100% female clinical team dedicated to supporting, empowering, and advocating for women’s health every day.

Today we celebrate the strength, compassion, and leadership of women — in our clinic, in our community, and around the world.

Happy International Women’s Day 💜

I was recently on vacation and I was reminded of a great analogy of how chronic pain can successfully be treated.

Life is like a tide in the ocean. The tide never stops. Some days, on the good days, the tide is soft, gentle, and calm. This is when pain might be low. Stress might be minimal, there’s not a lot of worry in your life. It’s easy to float around.

Some days the waves are stronger. They threaten to pull you under. Your heart races, you might be anxious, and your pain may also be flared up. But the waves don’t stop.

A key part of learning to live with and overcome chronic pain is learning how to handle the big waves. Like the waves, life doesn’t stop. But the more you can watch the waves, learn how to move among them, and navigate the under tow, the easier and easier it will become.

The best thing about the waves? You aren’t navigating them alone. There are people to help you learn how to navigate them to stay afloat. People to help you build up your skillset to conquer those waves. And people cheering you on from the sidelines.

Not all lubricants are created equally!

Swipe through this post for some recommendations of different lubricant types, made to be compatible with intimate areas.

Research shows that ingredients like fragrance, parabens, glycerin, and certain antimicrobial preservatives can irritate the skin may disrupt the vaginal microbiome. These additives have been associated with increased irritation, inflammation, and changes in healthy Lactobacillus bacteria which play an important role in vaginal and pelvic health.

Pro tip: Look for lubricants that are fragrance-free, low-irritant, and formulated with sensitive tissues in mind.

Less ingredients = often more pelvic-floor friendly.

Your body deserves comfort, safety, and pleasure, without unnecessary irritation.

Let’s bring back some grade school Valentine’s Day vibes this February! We could all use a little more love and warm, fuzzy feels these days!

Values:
💙 Do I value structured mentorship?
💙 Do I value the ability to have casual clinical conversations with like-minded providers?
💙 Do I like being the sole “expert” among a variety of different professions?

Thrive:
💛 How do perform at my best? By myself? Within a broader team?
💛 Problem solving and feeling that ‘ah-ha!’ With complex cases?
💛 Getting easy wins with “straight-forward”, textbook-like cases? Hint - it’s rarely that easy!

Professional Growth:
💜 Do I want to be a fantastic generalist or do I want to be known as an ‘expert’ in a few different areas?
💜 Am I particularly interested in a certain modality or area of work? How do I get more of that in my practice?
💜 Do I want to move beyond traditional clinical care and explore alternate avenues and innovative ideas?
💜 Am I interested in clinical leadership, teaching, research or alternative forms of providing care?

The first few years of practice are monumental in helping to shape yourself as the clinician you want to become. If you are interested in exploring pelvic floor PT, what the next steps in your career may be, or just being part of the discussion, we hope you will join us this Saturday!
