At this point… it’s kind of a no-brainer.

When you want pelvic floor care that actually changes your life:
you go where the wins are happening.

You go where:
✔️ they speak your fitness language
✔️ symptoms are taken seriously (not brushed off)
✔️ strength + confidence are part of the treatment plan
✔️ you’re challenged so that you actually get stronger

This isn’t luck. It’s leadership in pelvic rehab.
And it’s why our patient wins keep stacking up.

If you’re ready for better results and providers who work for YOU…
you already know where to go. 🔥

Being loud & viral does not mean they know what they’re talking about 🤷🏽‍♀️

Evidence isn’t EVERYTHING and we do need to take into account each individual person and anecdotal experiences - BUT it can help us alleviate a lot of fears around exercise and pelvic health.

There’s YEARS of misinformation that we are working to combat, especially for women who want to stay athletic and strong, even during stages of pregnancy and postpartum.

At Life In Motion, we go beyond the basics of stretches and kegels.

We create customized programming for YOUR goals and needs, to help our patients develop confidence around strength training and pelvic floor health.

Don’t settle for basic - get picky about your provider team.

Call us at 563-204-8343 to find out how we can help you achieve your pregnancy, postpartum, and pelvic health goals ❤️

We fix the leaks, pressure, and pain that keep strong moms from feeling CONFIDENT.

This is for the moms who thrive on a good sweat.
Who crave the feeling of being strong again.
Who miss moving freely, confidently, and without holding back.

You’ve built discipline. You’ve built strength.
But somewhere along the way, your body started sending signals…
the leaks, the pressure, the pain - that something deeper needed attention.

You don’t need to slow down.
You need a plan that honors your drive, your goals, and your body’s story.
A plan that helps you lift, run, jump, and train without fear.

At Life in Motion PT, we’re not just another clinic to choose from a list.
We’re a team that gets what it means to love movement and we help you get that part of yourself back.

Because this isn’t about “getting back to normal.”
It’s about feeling powerful again.
It’s about trusting your body again.
It’s about showing yourself what’s still possible.

Your pelvic floor is working with ALL of these 😜

(BUT if you don’t know how to coordinate your pelvic floor then you have to figure that out first)

Why these progressions?

Bridge hold w marches ➡️ Begins to challenge single leg glute strength and pelvis stability, without needing the strength for a full single leg bridge (but that would be next step)

Plank shoulder taps ➡️ Challenges weight acceptance through your core/shoulder girdle

Modified side plank w leg lift ➡️ Adds a more dynamic challenge needed for strong outer glutes (great for runners)

Squat w plate press ➡️ Shifts weight forward so your core and spine are challenge to keep you upright

If all you’re doing is the first one, without knowing how to progress to the more advanced version - we can help, and it’s probably what your pelvic floor needs.

If you’re tired of searching the internet for the “best pelvic floor exercises” or you’ve been to rehab and didn’t feel like it challenged you enough to get better - call today 👏🏼

Pelvic rehab isn’t just about breathing and gentle stretches. It’s about helping you trust your body again.

Because it’s not just your pelvic floor that needs healing. It’s also your confidence to move, lift, jump, and show up in your workouts without worrying what your body might do.

Strength training is where that transformation happens.

It’s the mom who used to skip her favorite bootcamp classes because she leaked every time they did jump squats… now hitting box jumps again, dry and confident.

It’s the woman who avoided deadlifts because she was scared of feeling “pressure down there”… now pulling weight off the floor without symptoms because she finally learned how to breathe, brace, and move with control.

It’s the runner who thought her prolapse meant her best race days were behind her… now finishing her miles stronger than before because she built a body that supports her pelvic floor, not one that fears it.

Strength training is pelvic floor rehab that actually translates to life. Picking up your toddler. Carrying groceries. Lifting a barbell. Jumping into movement without flinching. That’s what true rehab should look like.

And 5 or 10 lbs is NOT ENOUGH. You’re doing way more than that in your daily life.

At Life in Motion Physical Therapy, we bridge the gap between rehab and real life. Our approach blends pelvic floor science with full-body strength training so you don’t just heal, but come back stronger than ever.

If you’re tired of being told to “just do your Kegels” or doing bridges and bird dogs for years to come, and want a team that gets what it means to be active, strong, and unstoppable… we’re the right place for you.

But please stop trying to ONLY stretch your pain away 😫

If your hip pain continues to come back frequently - like every time you run, when you sit a certain way, every time you workout, etc….

You likely need more than stretches. Your hips need something more - more load, more coordination, more stabilization, more strength.

And we are the fitness forward rehab experts to help you do that 💪🏼

Call (563)204-8343 to discuss how we can help you ❤️

Pressure coming down > pressure your muscles can withstand - what do we do about it?

We can:

1. Reduce pressure coming down (example is exhale instead of holding breath) - this can help reduce symptoms quickly, BUT that’s usually a short term solution.

2. Reinforce the muscle control/coordination/strength to withstand pressures and respond appropriately

THIS is why your pelvic rehab needs to have you lifting weights heavier than just 5 lb dumbbells 😅 Your pelvic floor needs to be gradually exposed to more load so it can adapt and learn how to withstand it.

What do your kids weigh?

You need to be loading your body MORE than that so you can pick up your kids with no issues for years to come.

And TBH, we’ve seen a lot of clients in our clinic who have been to rehab before so we know that not everyone is doing this…

This is where we are different. We blend fitness/strength programming with rehab concepts to give you a customized plan to your best strength and healthiest pelvic floor, before or after babies.

BEST for moms who are active, or want to be active, especially with strength training.

DM us “CALL” to book a free consult call with us - 15 minutes max phone call with no pressure, so we can hear your story and hear how we can help you ❤️

“Just stop lifting.”
Cool advice if you want to stay weak forever. 🙃

But if you’d rather rebuild your strength and protect your pelvic floor, that’s exactly what we do.

Because prolapse doesn’t mean you’re fragile, it means it’s time to get intentional about how you’re lifting and bringing more body awareness.

At Life in Motion, we blend rehab + performance so you can lift, jump, and train with confidence again.

Not everyone is out there doing this with women - they are cut off from rehab WAY too early and it’s leaves them feeling like rehab “didn’t work”.

We do it differently because we KNOW it works better. Book your free consult call with us today 🏋🏽‍♀️

ONLY doing kegels is not the answer, no matter how many doctors are still out there giving that as your best option.

BUT let’s at least get on the same page about what it is and how to do it - because we do want to gain awareness of what our pelvic floor is doing when we do things like bridge, squat, jump, etc.

The end goal is that you DON’T have to think about your pelvic floor, but if you’re having issues - we have to bring awareness to what the heck it’s doing and what we need it to be doing.

At Life In Motion we go WAY beyond kegels - which is what you need, ESPECIALLY if you’re active, lifting weights, running, boot camping, etc.
