Endometriosis care ≠ just hormones or surgery.

Pelvic floor physical therapy focuses on the muscles and tissues that often tighten and guard in response to chronic pain. The goal? Less pain. Better function. More ease in daily life.

You deserve care that treats the whole system, not just the diagnosis.

Save this for later, or share it with someone navigating endometriosis who may not know pelvic floor therapy is an option.

Ready to feel your best in 2026? Start small and build powerful habits that support your mind and body!

1️⃣ Hydrate & Nourish
Keep a full water bottle on deck and fuel up with whole, organic foods. Hydration = energy + healthy digestion.

2️⃣ Support Your Immune System
Add nutrient-rich foods like salmon, spinach, berries & kale to your plate — packed with antioxidants, omega-3s, zinc and more!

3️⃣ Fix Your Posture
Desk-hunching got you sore?
Raise your screen to eye level and use lumbar support for better alignment — your neck and back will thank you.

4️⃣ Move More Daily
Take breaks, stretch, walk, or try gentle yoga poses like downward dog & thread the needle to boost circulation and reset your mind.

5️⃣ Clean + Healthy Home = Healthy You
Plants improve air quality and choosing glass or metal over plastic reduces BPA exposure — little swaps, big impact.

Wellness isn’t about perfection — it’s about progress. Start with these simple habits and watch them grow! 🌱❤️

Meditation isn’t just for stress relief — it can be a powerful tool in pelvic floor physical therapy.

When the nervous system is constantly “on,” the pelvic floor can stay tense without you realizing it. Meditation helps calm the body, reduce muscle guarding, and create awareness — all key pieces for healing pelvic floor dysfunction.

Regular meditation can help:
• Reduce stress-related pelvic tension
• Improve body awareness and connection to the pelvic floor
• Support better breathing patterns that allow the pelvic floor to relax
• Break the cycle of chronic pain and holding

Even 5–10 minutes a day of mindful breathing or guided meditation can make a difference — especially when paired with pelvic floor physical therapy.

Healing isn’t just about strengthening. Sometimes it’s about learning how to let go.

Struggling with pelvic pain? Relaxation matters.

Chronic stress and tension can cause trigger points in your pelvic floor muscles and worsen pain over time. Creating space for true relaxation can help calm your nervous system and ease discomfort.

Try these two techniques:
• Yoga Nidra (Co**se Pose): Lie comfortably, breathe deeply into your belly + pelvis, and let your body melt into the floor as you exhale. Allow the pelvic floor to gently drop + open with each inhalation.

• Body Scan: Either lying down or sitting supported, slowly scan your body from head to toe — noticing tension, breathing into it, then releasing. Tight areas breathe out and soften.

These mindful practices aren’t just “nice to have” — they’re powerful tools for reducing pelvic floor tension and supporting long-term pain relief.

Baby-wearing done right = comfy baby + happy back. Use a supportive carrier (thick, criss-cross straps), make sure baby is snug and well-positioned, shift weight often, and avoid long stretches of standing.

Safe wear = more bonding + less strain 💛

That nagging pain in your glutes might not be a disc or sciatic nerve problem — it could be tight or strained deep hip rotators (like the Obturator Internus) or pelvic-floor muscles irritating nearby nerves.

A targeted pelvic-floor physical therapy approach can restore mobility and ease the pain, helping you get back to sitting, walking and playing without discomfort.

Pelvic organ prolapse is more common than most women realize — and it’s treatable. 💛

If you’re feeling pelvic heaviness, pressure, bulging, or urinary leaks, your pelvic floor may need support.

Pelvic-floor physical therapy can strengthen the muscles that hold up your bladder, uterus, and re**um — helping reduce symptoms and restore confidence. Your body is giving you clues… don’t ignore them.

Pelvic floor dysfunction often goes unnoticed—yet the symptoms can impact everything from daily comfort to long-term pelvic health.

If you’ve experienced urinary leaking, heaviness in the pelvis, pain with in*******se, constipation, or persistent low-back or pelvic pain, your pelvic floor may be asking for attention.

These symptoms are common, but they are not something you need to live with. A well-functioning pelvic floor supports your bladder, bowel, s*xual health, and core stability. When it’s not working optimally, your body will start sending signals.

Key signs to look out for:
• Leaking with coughing, sneezing, or exercise
• Pain or discomfort with in*******se
• Pelvic pressure or heaviness
• Difficulty emptying the bladder or bowels
• Ongoing pelvic, hip, or low-back pain

Pelvic floor dysfunction is treatable, and individualized care can make a significant difference. If these signs feel familiar, reach out—we’re here to help you understand what’s going on and guide you toward lasting relief and support.

Struggling to sleep comfortably during pregnancy? You’re not alone. As your body changes, so do your sleep needs — and small adjustments can make a big difference. Here are a few evidence-based tips to support better rest:

• Favor left-side sleeping starting in the second trimester to optimize circulation and decrease pressure on major vessels.
• Use simple pillow support — one between the knees/ankles and one under the head is often more effective (and less bulky) than a full-body pregnancy pillow.
• Support your abdomen with a thin pillow or wedge as your bump grows to reduce strain on your back and hips.
• Place a pillow behind your back to limit rolling and ease shoulder or hip discomfort.
• Consider a mattress topper if you’re waking up stiff — a softer surface can protect pressure-sensitive joints.

Quality sleep is essential for both maternal well-being and fetal development. If pain or discomfort continues, a pelvic health evaluation can help identify what your body needs during each trimester.

This season, let’s talk about something that can feel a little “spooky” after giving birth — postpartum vaginal dryness.

After delivery, estrogen levels drop significantly. That decrease can lead to less natural lubrication, thinner vaginal tissue, and reduced blood flow — all of which can make intimacy uncomfortable or even painful.

In fact, research shows that up to 45% of postpartum women experience vaginal dryness, and more than half report pain with in*******se in the months that follow.

It’s not “just part of motherhood,” and it’s not something you need to silently endure.

Here’s what can help:
• Use a non-prescription vaginal moisturizer daily (such as Replens® or Luvena®).
• Apply a silicone- or water-based lubricant (like Uberlube®, Astroglide®, or BioNude®) before intimacy.
• If symptoms persist, your provider may recommend a topical estrogen cream to restore comfort and tissue health.

Remember — your body has been through incredible changes, and healing takes time. Pain isn’t something to “push through.” Addressing it early can help you return to intimacy with confidence, comfort, and connection.

You deserve to feel good in your body again. 💛

Post‐baby life can zap your energy and libido — but what you eat can totally flip the script. Think salmon for mood & circulation, berries for gut + vaginal health, avocados to support lubrication, almonds + pumpkin seeds for zinc & drive, yogurt for your inner microbiome.

Nutrition isn’t glamorous, but it’s the foundation of better s*x, better recovery, and better YOU. Let’s reclaim that spark
