Happy Easter from Empowered Wellness!

This season is all about renewal, restoration, and fresh beginnings—just like your wellness journey.

Whether you’re focusing on healing, strengthening, or simply slowing down to care for yourself, today is a beautiful reminder that growth takes time… and you’re right where you need to be.

Here’s to feeling empowered in your body and supported every step of the way.

April is C-section Awareness Month 🩷

While C-sections are common (~30% of births), recovery doesn’t end after birth. Your body has gone through major surgery—and it deserves proper healing.

Pelvic floor physical therapy can help restore strength, reduce pain, improve core function, and support your overall recovery journey. You don’t have to “just deal with it.”

**Tag a friend who has had a C-section so they can see these tips!!

Prioritize your healing. You’re worth it. ✨

What actually happens during a C-section??

A C-section isn’t just “having a baby another way”—it’s major abdominal surgery.

During the procedure, multiple layers are carefully moved through to reach your baby:
• Skin
• Fat
• Fascia (the strong connective tissue that supports your core)
• Abdominal muscles (usually separated, not cut)
• Uterus

That fascia layer is a big deal. It’s part of the system that helps your core and pelvic floor work together. When it’s cut and then heals, it doesn’t always return to its original mobility.

➡️ This is where scar tissue comes in.
As your body heals, it creates scar tissue to close and protect the area. But that scar can become tight, restricted, or “stuck” to surrounding layers.
And those restrictions can lead to:
• That “shelf” or overhang at the incision
• Numbness or pulling sensations
• Core weakness or difficulty engaging
• Pelvic floor dysfunction (leaking, pressure, pain)
• Feeling disconnected from your body

Your core and pelvic floor are meant to function as a team. When the scar limits movement and communication between those layers, everything has to compensate.

✨ The good news: this is treatable.
Seeing a pelvic floor therapist after a C-section isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessary part of recovery.
We work on:
• Restoring mobility to the scar and surrounding tissue
• Reconnecting your core and breath
• Supporting your pelvic floor
• Helping you feel strong and confident in your body again

And no—it’s never “too late” to start.

If you’ve had a C-section (whether it was 6 weeks ago or 16 years ago), your body deserves this kind of care.

💬 Tell me—did anyone talk to you about scar care after your C-section?

I pulled my calf muscle playing volleyball against my daughter's 11U team. I was diving for a ball ok....I STILL GOT IT! LOLOL

As soon as I got home I needled it, then used my TENS and red light mask. I love how versitile it is!

Red light therapy can support circulation, calm inflammation, and help your body recover from pulled muscles and injuries.

This mask works overtime in my house. 💪

Injuries suck. That is all!

So proud to wrap up our Warrior Volleyball Academy 11U club season! 🏐

This team improved so much and put in the hard work every single week. The growth we saw — in skills, confidence, and teamwork — was incredible.
So proud of Sophia and her teammates for their dedication and positive attitudes all season long. These girls showed up, worked hard, and kept getting better. Thank you to Coach Pav and Coach Drex for pouring into our girls and loving them on the court!!

The Empowered Story

My name is Stephanie Perez and I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy. Working with patients over the past eight years I have discovered that while there are physical therapy services available, sometimes it is hard to find the time to make it to appointments due to babies, naps, busy schedules, or location. Providing physical therapy on a virtual platform allows for greater access to women's health services so that everyone can get the help and healing that they need.
