✨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!

To every mama—new, seasoned, or somewhere in between—today we celebrate you. To those healing, those hoping, those grieving, those remembering—you are seen.

Your body carries stories of love, loss, strength, and resilience. Whether you’re navigating motherhood with a full heart or a tender one, your well-being matters.

Your pelvic floor tells a story too—of strength, change, and sometimes, the need for a little support. You are strong, deserving, and not alone.

Here’s to the moms who do it all—and deserve to heal fully. If your body feels different after motherhood, that’s okay. Let’s talk about it. Pelvic floor therapy is one way to nurture yourself through it all. DM me or book a consult when you’re ready.

If your body hurts when holding your baby, check in with yourself. Do you always hold them the same way? Are you shifting onto the same hip every time?

Repeating the same postures day after day can lead to muscle imbalances and pain. Check out my previous posts for common prolonged positions when caring for little ones!

Can you change things up? Even small adjustments can make a big difference. I love the saying “the best posture is the next posture”—motion is lotion!

In general, it’s helpful to:
✔ Keep equal weight through both feet
✔ Stack your rib cage over your pelvis
✔ Hold your baby centered on your body or use an ergonomic carrier

Still experiencing discomfort? We’re here to help! Pelvic PT isn’t just for pelvic floor concerns—it can also address aches and pains throughout your body. I use hands-on techniques like soft tissue work, myofascial release, cupping, and dry needling, combined with exercise and home programming, to get you back to feeling like you.

Forward-leaning inversions can help increase blood flow to the pelvic region, which can alleviate pain and discomfort associated with endometriosis. Additionally, it can help reduce inflammation in the pelvic area and promote lymphatic drainage, which may help with the removal of excess fluid and waste products that can contribute to endometriosis symptoms.

The forward-leaning position can also help lengthen and release tension in the pelvic floor muscles, which can become tight and painful due to endometriosis.

⚠️CAUTION: Avoid inversions during menstruation and obtain clearance from a healthcare provider before performing

Regular practice of forward-leaning inversions as part of a comprehensive treatment plan may help improve quality of life for those with endometriosis

Tightness in the round ligament can impact fertility by altering the shape of the uterus, hindering the path for successful implantation—a condition termed mechanical infertility. This tension can also disrupt blood flow🩸to the uterus and ovaries, contributing to pain, decreased hormonal production, and infertility

✨Pelvic floor physical therapy, utilizing techniques such as visceral manipulation, plays a role in addressing these issues✨

Endometriosis can involve thicker or more fibrous round ligaments, intensifying the pain and fertility challenges associated with the condition.
