Our Pelvic Health Fundamentals course is back!!

This course was designed to help bridge the gap between general ortho / physio school training and the pelvic floor internals courses.

We provide practical frameworks designed to help you be confident in your own reasoning with all the typical presentations you’ll see.

The course has been refined over several years of external and internal cohorts and we see every time what a difference it makes in people’s competence and confident with pelvic health clients.

If you feel like you need a helping hand to find footing in your practice, we’d love to have you!

Rehabilitative ultrasound imaging is an awesome tool for visualizing how muscles are working internally 🩻

This workshop focused on using it through the abs, which is useful for assessing how the abs are firing together- this is particularly relevant with diastasis and postpartum healing!

We can also see how full the bladder is (or isn’t) which is helpful with bladder urgency.

It’s especially cool that we can use it in different positions, which is great for making sure your muscles are working well when you really need them to, not just when lying on the treatment table!

If you’re interested and think it could help please see the services page on our website for more info!!

Our shiny new clinic needed a shiny new online look to match!

A huge shout out to the team that bought this to life!
.creative and .co

I had been working with for the past 18m to help with clinic marketing and they had always been phenomenal.

Marketing can feel so sticky, especially in our field where there’s so much nuance and selling health is just 🤮

Anyway, Abi and Elysse from helped me find a way that felt authentic and values aligned. They were in it with me (especially through postpartum and becoming a repeat offender for forgetting meetings 🙈) and they truly became part of the team.

They helped me strategize for our new branding and site and find an affordable way to meet a big goal (no small feat). They wrote the copy and captured who we are and what we want to say, which is so important when you’re speaking about a topic that’s so misunderstood and undervalued.

Helen .creative did the rebrand and she’s endlessly patient and positive. She walked with me through the twists and turns of my decision making, and it’s very clear her goal is to get it 💯 and to make sure you’re happy. Her experience is demonstrated with how quickly she grasps your thoughts, and how quickly and accurately she executes on them.

Lastly, as Helen said, Cheerful is all about our people. So team cheerful need to be central to our branding. Jen .co captured us in all our fun and expertise, and the relational sweetness that makes our clinical days go round.

Teamwork really did make the dream work on this one.

I had always loved our branding, but I feel like the clinic grew up a bit over the last 6 years, and this fresh look represents that.

Thanks again team! And to team cheerful for their contributions and volunteering with all their energy for the shoot. You’re the best!

It’s been 6 years of our current branding and website, and as nostalgic as our cute graphics and bright colours are we have outgrown them!

We have a rebrand and gorgeous new website coming that gives clients better insight into who we are, and how pelvic health at The Cheerful Pelvis feels, and we’re so excited to share it!

Don’t miss out as the website takes a brief pause - we’re here, you can call or email us if you find the match me form is unavailable.

Stay tuned for the new upgraded cheerful 💅

It’s back!!!!!

This series was such a zoom hit during our covid era and we’re stoked to bring it back in person in our new clinic space!

Running is one of the most accessible ways to move your body, sweat, and clear your head postpartum because you can lace up and escape out the front door any time!

This 5 week class series is to build pelvic floor, core, and whole body strength to get back to running with strength and confidence.

We include videos for home workouts between classes and education to better understand how to prepare and care for the postpartum running body!

Our running workshop is coming up!

It’s a chance to dive deep into running form with the pelvic floor in mind.

Great for pelvic floor loving runners, or anyone with pelvic floor symptoms and they run like leaking or heaviness.

It’s a small group with lots of 1:1 attention from Sam as she coaches you on your form and any drills to help you optimize pelvic floor mechanics while you push yourself.

You asked, we answered!

Sam’s postpartum strength and core class has been so popular, and not just with the attendees! We love hearing the cheers and laughter coming from the movement space on a Tuesday morning.

Classes are packed, and we know weekdays can be tricky, so Victoria is thrilled to start offering a class on Saturdays!!!!

Kicking off Sept 13th, physio led postpartum strength and core classes will run 9:45-10:45 - you can snag your spot on Jane now!

Giving birth is one of the most physically demanding things a person might do in their lifetime.

But historically, strength training during pregnancy hasn't been the norm. What’s up with that?

At Cheerful, we want to equip you with the tools and information you need to feel strong and empowered. In this month’s blog, we’re sharing the benefits of exercising while pregnant.

Hopping on the haunted house bandwagon!!!

Pelvic floor physio has come a loooong way over the last decade. We know so much more about how to integrate PF care to the whole body and the whole person to get best results.

Gone are the days where we give all clients kegals and hope for the best.

So if this has happened to you… there is so much more that can be done!

Don’t give up! Shop around and find a better fit.

*disclaimer - of course some people do need PF exercises, but that should be assessed as part of a bigger system and never assumed or rote care
