The last 2 weeks have really taken it out of me.

Half term
Poorly baby
A&E trip
Busy clinic lists
HCPC audits (urgh!!)

Thankfully I feel on top of it now, however it has taken its toll on my stress levels and my pelvic floor.

My tells are:
I start to shallow breath
My urge symptoms return
I clench my jaw.

All of this has happened in the last 2 weeks.

I know I’ll get on top of it all, teaching my Pilates classes helps me massively.

I jokingly tell my FaceTime face classes that they are my stress relief. Thing is, I’m not joking!

Pilates is so much more than exercise to me.

It’s reconnecting with my body
It’s getting my diaphragm working again
It’s relaxing my pelvic floor.

What helps you relax?

And yes, K Pop Demon Hunters also helps

Even though I said I had to, I still wasn’t sure.

This was yesterday morning.

I feel sometimes as health care professionals we feel we can’t share that we know exactly how it feels as we have, or are, experiencing it too.

Hands up, my pelvic floor doesn’t always behave.

I’m not saying I’ll understand all your symptoms, but I have a good idea the impact it has on your life.

Stressful situations get me every time.

I’ve had a few recently, and every time my pelvic floor tightens and lets me know about it.

The thing is, I know what to do to put my pelvic floor back in its place. And that’s what I can teach you.

Have you noticed your symptoms are worse in times of stress? Let me know I’m not alone ❤️

I have serious issues with people prompting Kegels on social media.

That hand movement really grinds my gears.

They are great to remind you, but where’s the pause?

Where’s the reset?

Where’s making sure your pelvic floor is relaxed before you engage your pelvic floor?

Yes my way takes longer, but it won’t make your prolapse symptoms worse.

Try it, and let me know if your pelvic floor feels stronger

The Squeezy app.

What are your thoughts?

Personally I don’t recommend it.

It’s too fast (even when you change the settings)
It’s too passive aggressive (3 times a day to work your pelvic floor?!?)
It’s too Kegel heavy

If you do use the Squeezy app, please pause between each Kegel. Your pelvic floor needs to relax before you try and tense it again.

No raving pelvic floors please 💃

If you have a prolapse and you’ve been told:

“Take a big breath in… now squeeze.”

We need to talk.

Your pelvic floor does not exist in isolation. It’s part of a pressure system that includes your diaphragm, abdominal wall, and ribcage.

When you inhale, pressure increases downward. Your pelvic floor lengthens. That’s normal physiology.

So asking it to lift against increasing pressure?

That’s not strength training. That’s poor timing.

With prolapse, the goal isn’t “squeeze harder.”
It’s better coordination.
Better pressure management.
Better load strategy.

Kegels aren’t wrong.
But cueing and context matter.

When we work with the breath instead of against it, symptoms often feel lighter, more supported, and more manageable.

Pelvic health is nuanced.
And you deserve more than generic cues.

If you’re ready to train smarter - not tighter - I’m your physio.

I’m putting it out there.

Relaxing your pelvic floor is more beneficial than contracting it.

Hear me out.

The majority of us hold our pelvic floors slight tense throughout the day anyway.

So when you’re sat in traffic and decide to do your pelvic floor contractions, you’re actually tensing a muscle that’s already tense.

Which means that pelvic floor contraction isn’t as good as it could be.

Try relaxing it first and feel the difference.

Let me know how you get on




24/02/2026

Could you tell I was dashing home after a frantic school drop off?? 🫠

These videos are great.

They do remind you to do your pelvic floor contractions.

However, all I ask is you relax fully between each one.

If you’re not sure how to do that and would like to know what else can strengthen your pelvic floor comment PILATES and I’ll tell you about my next live, online pelvic floor Pilates course

The smell of this gave me flash backs of my youth.

Not good ones!

This stuff hit my stomach and came straight back up again 🤢

Speaking to a mum friend today, she said she liked it!

So, banana medicine, good memories or bad?

Did you only learn about pelvic floor problems once you were living with one?

Or did you quietly assume the symptoms you were experiencing were just “normal”… because no one had ever told you otherwise?

If that’s you, please know this:
You are not alone.
I have this conversation with women all the time.

“I never knew this could happen.”
“No one told me about this.”
“I thought it was normal.”
“Doesn’t that happen to everyone?”

For far too long, pelvic health has been whispered about - or not spoken about at all. So we’ve normalised leaking, heaviness, pain, discomfort, and changes that don’t feel right. We’ve convinced ourselves it’s just part of being a woman, part of having babies, part of getting older.

But common does not mean normal.

And normal does not mean you have to live with it.
Pelvic health is not taboo. It’s not embarrassing. It’s not something you have to quietly accept.

The more we talk about it, the more we realise how many women are nodding along, thinking, “Me too.”

The more we speak up, the more we understand our bodies.

The more we understand, the more empowered we become to seek support.

You deserve to feel strong.
You deserve answers.
You deserve support.
You are not alone - and there is help out there. ❤️

Your pelvic floor has been through enough - let’s not make it wrestle your poo too. 💁‍♀️💩

If you’ve got a prolapse, constipation is NOT your best friend. Here’s how to keep things moving without the drama:

1️⃣ Pop a little stool under your feet - we’re going full toddler-on-a-potty vibes. It works.
2️⃣ No straining. If you’re turning purple, you’re doing it wrong.
3️⃣ Moo to poo 🐮 (yes, actually). A gentle “mooooo” helps your pelvic floor relax instead of panic-clench.
4️⃣ Get moving. Your bowels love a good walk.
5️⃣ Drink more fluids. Your colon is not a fan of dry work. Hydrate it.

Be kind to your pelvic floor. It’s sensitive. And it deserves better than a powerlifting session on the toilet.

Don’t just take their word for it.

Right now, the internet is full of “pelvic health experts.”

Some have done a one-day online course and rebranded. That’s it.

Pelvic health isn’t basic.

It’s not “just do your Kegels.”
It’s bladder, bowel, prolapse, pain, postnatal recovery, surgical history, red flags.

That takes proper training and clinical experience.

I’m a qualified pelvic health physio.
I invest in ongoing CPD.
I’m registered with the correct professional bodies.

A certificate isn’t the same as experience.
A following isn’t the same as qualification.

When you’re struggling, you’ll try anything - I understand that. But this is your body.

Check who you’re trusting.

You deserve individual, evidence-based care.

Confession: I was raised on tactical wees.

My mum made me “go just in case.”
And if nothing came out?
She was… not impressed.

She also didn’t talk about periods.
But that’s a story for another day. 🫠

Now I know:

Your bladder isn’t meant to perform on command.

And pushing to p*e (even for the “last drop”) isn’t helping your pelvic floor.

Most of us were taught to:
• Tactical wee
• Push it out
• Hold our stomachs in
• Clench everything

Not because our mums did it wrong -
but because no one taught them either.

So here’s the updated version we’re passing on:

✨ P**p = breathe + don’t push down
✨ P*e = relax, don’t force
✨ Wipe front to back
✨ Let your belly soften
✨ Strength AND relaxation both matter

We’re not blaming.
We’re evolving.

If you grew up on tactical wees too, drop a 🚽 in the comments so I know I wasn’t alone.
