💩 Bristol Stool Chart… but make it Halloween edition 🍬🎃
🧊 Type 1: Like Milk Duds: hard, separate little pellets (constipated!)
🍫 Type 2: Like a Pay Day: still too firm, need more fiber + water
🍬 Type 3: Large Tootsie roll: has cracks showing signs of dehydration
Type 4: Regular Tootsie roll: ideal form, easy to pass! 🙌
🍫 Type 5 and 6: Like chocolate almond butter: too soft, too mushy, your gut might be reacting to something
☠️ Type 7: Like chocolate syrup: time to check hydration, infection, or food sensitivities
Your p**p tells you a LOT about your digestion, hydration, and pelvic floor coordination. 💪

So… which candy are you today? 👀

If you’re anything but a 4 call a pelvic floor physical therapist!

No one wants trick-or-treat-and-leak season 😅💀.
If your bladder can’t handle a good scare, your pelvic floor muscles may be overworked or under-trained.
The good news? Pelvic foor PT’s can assess your pelvic floor and your whole body to find the cause of leakage and keep you dry, without endless Kegels.
Pelvic floor PT helps you enjoy Halloween frights (and life) without the surprise leaks.

That spot he’s pointing to? Too high for the uterus!
Some cycle-related bloating is totally normal , hormones affect your gut and fluid balance.
But if the bloating is painful or persistent, it’s worth an evaluation by your doctor, a G.I. specialist, or a pelvic floor PT.

Most people have never heard of a levator avulsion, even though it can be one of the biggest contributors to prolapse after childbirth.
A levator avulsion happens when the pelvic floor muscle (the levator ani) detaches from the bone during delivery. It’s not something your OB is likely to mention, not because they missed it, but because there’s no surgical repair for it.
But that doesn’t mean there’s nothing you can do.
🧠 Understanding how this injury affects support and healing changes how we rehab the pelvic floor.
💪 We can retrain surrounding muscles, improve coordination, and restore pressure management.
💡 Knowledge = power, especially when it comes to prolapse recovery.
👉 Watch the full clip to understand how we approach this differently at Optimize Pelvic Health. It’s not just about muscle strength, it’s about surrounding support and ways to improve pelvic floor awareness.

Trying to “fix” your rib flare by flattening your back? 🚫 That’s not the solution, it’s the setup for core and pelvic floor dysfunction.

When you flatten your spine to pull your ribs down, you actually:
❌ Lock up your diaphragm (hello, shallow breathing)
❌ Overwork your abs
❌ Create downward pressure on your pelvic floor

👉 Rib flare isn’t just a back issue.

At Optimize Pelvic Health, we retrain your rib cage, core, and pelvic floor to work together, not against each other.

🫁 Learn how to align your ribs so your core can efficiently stabilizes without causing injury.

This high school’s new rule is going viral: 🚫 students can only use the bathroom 3 times a day / 7 per week during class.

Here’s the catch ⬇️

School hours are usually 8–3, so yes — 3 trips might cover a healthy bladder schedule if timed around breaks and lunch.

BUT… it depends on:
📍 Distance to the nearest restroom
⏰ Class transitions & extracurriculars
😅 Extracurriculars & keeping up with friends
A healthy bladder typically empties every ~3 hours (6x/day: 7, 10, 1, 4, 7, 10).
And for female teens 🩸🩸🩸is sometimes unpredictable and heavy requiring more changes in feminine products!! (Not addressed in my video.)

Limiting access could force kids to hold it longer than ideal, which isn’t great for bladder or pelvic floor health long-term.
👉 If you (or your teen) notice urgency, frequency, or excessive flow during a teen’s period that’s your cue to reach out to a pelvic floor PT. Your bladder should fit your life, not the other way around.
