We’ve all seen the athlete with tape but did you know it can be used as a complimentary therapy to improve symptoms of mastitis, engorgement and blocked ducts when breastfeeding? 🌸

How?
The tape lifts the skin from the underlining tissue allowing fluid movement and circulation to reduce inflammation and pain.

Thereby K-taping to the breast can be an excellent compliment to other modes of treatment such as ultrasound therapy or massage to continue their benefits and effects after your treatment at home.

Due to phenomenal demand I am increasing the size of our evening Pilates classes 🧘🏼‍♀️

Don’t fret ✋🏻 the same quality of pelvic health physiotherapy led Pilates focusing on building movement around breath work and pelvic positioning to target core, pelvic floor, pelvis and functional movement just in a new location ✨

The new space is located under in Oranmore. Personally, I’ve had so much positive energy in this room and I can’t wait to share it with you 🌈

The best part? A 6 week block is now €100 saving you €50 on the small sized classes 💥

The next 6 week block will begin on Thursday 26th of February at 7pm 🧘🏼‍♀️

Join us by sending me a DM or emailing info@pelvichealthwest.ie 📩 remember I’m increasing the size of the class to accommodate more people and share my Pilates practice. So with that in mind spaces will go fast with the demand seen in the last blocks!

See you on the mat 💜

Ever heard of compression shorts? These are shorts designed to give you more support during exercise but we have very little research on them. .physio and her colleagues to the rescue with this 2026 research 🦸🏼‍♀️

I heard Gráinne on podcast and this stuck with me: we wear sports bras to protect our breasts from motion and shock so would it not be the same for the tissues of our pelvic floor? 🤔

Swipe to see who was included and what were the findings of using the EVB shorts when running in post-partum women 👉🏻

How can we apply this to practice?
Posture is something I advise on when running so the shorts may help with engaging good posture as there is a better perception of support from the core and pelvic floor which may add to the improved coordination between the trunk and pelvis.
I also speak about shock absorption and landing through the feet so the shock absorption from the shorts may again compliment that as has been shown. This advice comes alongside a pelvic floor training regime depending on what’s seen on assessment and a gradual loading programme into running by analysing when symptoms are occurring if possible.

So in short, I think this research shows that compression shorts could be a useful adjunct to treatment for the biomechanical advice we give.

It has also been a pleasure to be able to advise women in clinic in the last couple of weeks exactly what the shorts could provide so thank you .physio and colleagues 👏🏻

Let’s normalise sensitive topics 🤸🏽‍♀️

So many come in and say “sorry maybe this is TMI”. Nothing is off topic within the four walls of the PHW clinic room and generally it’s very relevant to your presentation and I would probably ask you about it anyways!

So let’s get talking 💜

🌸 Breastfeeding Support Services 🌸

Engorgement occurs when the breasts become overfilled and congested, often within the first two weeks after birth due to overstimulation.

Breast Symptoms:
🟣 Hard to touch
🟣 Swelling
🟣 Pain

How can physio help?
Therapeutic ultrasound can promote tissue mobility, fluid mobility and reduced pain and swelling. Results are seen in just three treatments. Massage and taping can compliment this to continue the lymphatic drainage at home.

🏃🏼‍♀️ Monday Moves: Running 🏃🏼‍♀️

The previous pelvic floor, core and glutes exercises will benefit running but here are my faves!

🏃🏼‍♀️ Squats: eventually progressing into a single leg squat with weights because you don’t run on two legs at once!

🏃🏼‍♀️ Heel Raises: Ideally do these from a step and again eventually progress into a single leg with weights.

🏃🏼‍♀️ Hopping/plyometrics: particularly important if you do field sports with a change of direction. Running is basically hopping on one leg so get practicing!

Hit save for your next workout 📩 and enjoy injury free running!

I hope you enjoyed Monday Moves 🤸🏽‍♀️ let us know in the comments what other exercises you’d like to see ⬇️
