Some mornings, self-care isn’t about motivation—it’s about knowing I won’t have the energy later. Before a full day of clients, I gently nudge myself to do a few things that support my body 😌

✨ Warm ginger tea to help get things moving (hello digestion)🫚
✨ Diaphragmatic breathing, spinal mobility, and gentle inversions to calm my nervous system and support blood flow & lymphatic drainage 🧘‍♀️
✨ A big breakfast because fueling early = steadier energy, better workouts, and better care for others
✨ Strength training to muscle fatigue to maintain muscle, bone health, and long-term resilience 💪

Small, consistent habits can make a big impact over time! Motion is medicine. Fuel matters. And doing something is always enough 💛

Do you experience pelvic pressure or the sensation of a vaginal bulge? You’re not alone!

Prolapse does NOT mean you can’t exercise or have more children. Pelvic floor physical therapy can help you feel strong, confident, and ready for what’s next. While prolapse can feel overwhelming at first, many people go on to reach their fitness goals and have healthy pregnancies and births 💪✨

✨The FDA just announced removal of the black box warning on v@ginal estrogen✨

If intimacy hurts, leaks happen, or something feels “off,” you’re not broken!

You may just need support restoring muscle strength, coordination, and potentially vulvov@ginal hormone balance ⚖️

Kinesiology tape can help improve lymphatic flow and reduce inflammation in the breast by gently lifting the skin and supporting fluid movement.

1️⃣ Cut 4-5 strips with a rounded anchor at the top.
2️⃣ Create “tentacles” and place them over areas of firmness or congestion.
3️⃣ The tape lifts the superficial skin, which opens surface lymphatics and provides a light massaging effect as you move.

⏱️ The tape can typically stay on for a few days (remove if irritating to skin). To remove, lift one corner and gently glide it back over itself—avoid tugging!

⚡Pro tip: Kinesiology tape can be a great complement to a full breast physical therapy session.
✨ Therapeutic ultrasound (TUS)
✨ Light therapy
✨ Lymphatic drainage

Together, these help reduce inflammation, edema, pain, and firmness, support healing, and can even facilitate milk let-down, helping prevent or relieve mastitis, clogged ducts, and engorgement.

Hugger bras also improve lymphatic flow and their 360 degree compression adapts to changes in breast symmetry!

This is often referred to as key🔑 in the door syndrome! It can hit you as soon as you arrive home, open a door, hear running water🚿, or catch sight of a restroom/toilet🚽. The triggers for this phenomenon are varied and numerous 👀

Here are some tips:

▪️Take 10 deep/slow diaphragmatic breaths that make your belly expand/pelvic floor muscles relax on the inhale to stimulate the vagus nerve to help stay calm.

▪️Bladder self-talk (“I’m ok, I didn’t need to go to the bathroom 5 minutes ago”).

▪️Do 5-10 quick kegels for reflexive inhibition.

▪️Perform calf raises (the calves share the same nerve roots as the bladder).

▪️Try mental distraction activities – count backwards from 200 in 3’s, unload the dishwasher, etc.

Strength 💪 isn’t always the issue. Learn how to ✨coordinate✨ your core system to help your pelvic floor work better!

When we overly engage our upper abdominal muscles and underuse the deep core, it can increase downward pressure on our organs—like the bladder—and on the pelvic floor muscles. 👉 See my pinned post for the toothpaste tube visual!

This increased pressure can lead to:
🔹 Excess tension in the pelvic floor (trying to counteract the pressure)
🔹 Disrupted breath-core synergy
🔹 Symptoms like leakage, heaviness or bulging, and pain

The muscles in your abdomen, back, pelvis, and your breathing muscle (the diaphragm) all need to work together like a team. Even if they’re strong on their own, poor coordination can still cause dysfunction!

In pelvic floor physical therapy, we focus on neuromuscular retraining—helping your brain and body communicate better so your muscles move in sync.

It’s not just about getting stronger 💪—it’s about getting smarter 🧠 with how your body moves!
