Pelvic health is more than postpartum care (although we absolutely offer that too!).

Pelvic health is performance health. 🙌

Make or female, young or old, your pelvic floor is essential to run, move and play well. And when it isn’t on it’s A game, the ripple effects are real.

So if you’ve been navigating a persistent hip or back concern that just never seems to get 100% there, consider reaching out about the role that your pelvic floor might be playing.

*no internal exam is required to start. We meet you where you’re comfortable, develop a plan together, and build from there.

The ask of a race is no joke.

Months of building, planning, and flirting with just how much you can push yourself.

Big emotions before, during and after.

Systemic inflammatory changes that take up to a month to fully clear (it’s not just your muscles that took on serious stress, team!).

🙌 So here’s your reminder to chill. Take your time. Refuel. Reflect. Introduce gentle movement, but don’t stress about fitness.

You’ll be so much stronger if you allow your body and mind what they need to recover fully.

And if you feel like you need some help or guidance, we’ve got you! 👊

Also, huge congrats! You did the thing! It can’t have been easy, but you are incredible.
