One of my favorite exercises for FULL BODY dynamic stability is lunges with resisted trunk rotation. Dynamic stability is so important for the movements we do in our daily lives!

✨anchor a band securely in a door to your side (or hold a dumbbell out in front of you)
✨hold a lunge position as you exhale and rotate away from the anchor point
✨return to the starting position with CONTROLLED movement
✨repeat 5-10x with each foot in front, then turn to face the opposite direction (or rotate the opposite direction if using a dumbbell

If you have any pain or symptoms with this exercise, make sure to seek professional help! This is not medical advice.

Struggling with neck and upper back pain??

Caring for our kiddos, the changes our bodies go through in pregnancy, and our daily postures when at our computers or on our phones, all put a lot of work on our cervical and thoracic spine!

Try these 3 simple exercises 10x every day to improve function and reduce pain in your neck and upper back.

1️⃣ Wall Angels: helps open up the chest and encourage good scapular movement

2️⃣ Chin Drops: strengthens the deep neck flexors and stretches the deep neck extensors to reduce forward head posture

3️⃣ Open Book: mobilizes the thoracic spine and rib cage

There are many ways to address pain in these areas but these 3 exercises are a great place to start!

Interested in improving your posture and reducing your pain? DM or fill out the contact page on my website to set up an appointment! Virtual and in-person are available.

My top 3 questions when someone comes in struggling with bowel movements:

1. How well are you hydrating? 💧Your stool needs water to pull in to allow for a soft consistency!
2. How is your fiber intake? 🥦Fiber helps normalize stool consistency and promotes a healthy gut microbiome.
3. Do you prop up your feet? 🚽Having a stool under your feet, allows your knees to be above you hips, which helps the recrum align more efficiently with the pelvis and pelvic floor muscles. This can make bowel movements significantly more easier!

Do you struggle with urinary leakage with squats, lunges, or even just when moving from sitting to standing or getting out of bed?

Give this tip a try: Exhale on Exertion

When we exhale, it allows the pelvic floor and core to naturally engage and can give our system a little extra support when the pelvic floor isn’t working quite like it should be!

If you struggle with urinary leakage, make sure to see a pelvic floor therapist to help determine the root cause of the issue.

In the meantime, give this a try and see how it works for you!

✨ Our next hormone highlight is estrogen! ✨

Estrogen has many effects on the body as a whole, but today, we are going to focus on its influence on a woman’s cycle.

Estrogen increases after the launch of FSH and is produced by the o***y. It rapidly rises, which signals LH to release from the brain. This cascade of events is required for ovulation to occur.

The influence of estrogen also changes the quality of our cervical mucus. When estrogen is high, cervical mucus becomes more thin, stretchy and lucrative. These qualities are vital for s***m transportation to occur.

Estrogen is also thickens the uterine lining. This lining has to be thick in order for a fertilized egg to implant and sustain a pregnancy.

So, if you have too much estrogen, you may experience:
➡️heavy bleeding
➡️painful periods
➡️difficulty conceiving
➡️ irritability
➡️ mood swings
➡️ fatigue

If you have low estrogen, you may see:
➡️ light flow
➡️short periods
➡️ delayed or absent ovulation
➡️ difficulty conceiving
➡️ fatigue
➡️ vaginal dryness

It’s time for a Hormone Highlight series! Throughout the next couple weeks I’ll be posting overviews of each of the primary hormones in a woman’s cycle!

✨Today’s hormone highlight: FSH ✨

FSH stands for follicle stimulating hormone. It releases from the pituitary gland in your brain, and it is responsible for launching early in your cycle to start the follicle maturation process in the o***y. One follicle will become dominant and prepare to release its egg during ovulation.

FSH also stimulates estrogen to rapidly rise in the o***y, which is required for ovulation to occur.

So what happens if FSH is not releasing properly? You may see any combination of these symptoms:
➡️ irregular periods
➡️ difficulty concieving
➡️ fatigue
➡️ light flow/short periods
➡️ abnormal cycle length (shorter than 24 days or longer than 36)

Stay tuned to learn about the next hormone of your cycle!

So what does FEMM charting really involve?? We primarily analyze 3 key observations and use that information to determine hormonal health.

We look at…
🩸menstruation: the quality and quantity of your bleeding during each me**es

💧cervical mucus: whether it is present or not with wiping, its qualities, and how it changes over your cycle

📊 LH testing: a positive test, indicating an LH surge has occurred to indicate likely ovulation

This data in addition to other details noted on your chart guide us in identifying your hormonal health.

Let’s talk labor prep! Pregnancy requires so much of your body! Ligaments stretch, muscles move in new ways, and your posture shifts in response to this ever changing center of gravity!

This can cause discomfort in the spine, hips, abdomen, and pelvis.

I love helping women prepare their body to support them through pregnancy, labor, and delivery!

We want to:
✨strengthen muscles to support the joints as they are shifting as baby grows
✨mobilize the body to reduce muscle tension, give space for baby to be in the best position, and encourage an open pelvis ready to deliver a baby
✨and optimize movement patterns to reduce the aches and pains of pregnancy as much as possible

All of this combined with education on labor and delivery positioning, breathing techniques, and pushing strategies will help prepare you and your body to bring your sweet baby into the world. 🤍
