Week 5 was HUGE!

We spent the first 4 weeks connecting into what each mom's body needs during the postpartum period to help her recover, and then building up connections with our core and pelvic floor. This week, we stepped it up and started building up our core and glute strength. And guess what? We had an AWESOME win from one of our moms.

At the start of the class, she had an abdominal separation that was 3 finger widths wide. Last night, can you guess how wide her separation was?

1.5 finger widths. That gap was reduced to HALF of what it was just a few weeks prior.

That is HUGE!!

And I'm so excited to see where everyone lands in a few short weeks.

If you've been thinking about joining us for our spring session, this could be you! We start March 18th, and registration is open at www.foundationptwi.com. Go to the Postpartum Foundations page and you'll find the registration form.

It's hard to believe how fast the past few weeks have gone- we are already halfway done with the first session of our pelvic floor class!

This week was all about working on our posture. The ribs and mid/upper back are often forgotten in terms of pelvic floor and core function. When we have poor posture or limited mobility through this area, we will often find pelvic floor problems and difficulties healing an abdominal separation. We found many a "sticky" spot in our thoracic spines in class this week and also some weak points in the muscles that help us to maintain our posture. It was a great class!

We've laid a good foundation for the moms in our group these past four weeks. They've build connections with their core and pelvic floor they didn't have before. In the coming weeks, they are going to be building up their strength and starting to tackle higher level activities (think back to the gym type stuff). I am so excited to see them succeed!

If you have been following along and think you'd be interested in joining us for our next session, registration for spring is now open! We start March 18th. We are once again keeping the number of registrations limited so that you can get the individualized attention you deserve when you attend class. Don't wait to register!

How many of you have thought to yourselves, "man, these kids have really done a number of my core and pelvic floor... I really should do something about it 😬"?

But you feel like:
A) You can't get take off of work to address it
B) It's going to cost you and arm and a leg to see a professional one on one for help or
C) You could try the whole online program thing, but what if it doesn't work?

At Foundation Physical Therapy we have created a pelvic floor and core restoration class just for moms like you!

⭐We run it in the evening, so no taking off of work.
⭐ It's a small group where you get individualized attention but costs less than two one-on-one pelvic floor physical therapy sessions (national average is $200/session, for reference)
⭐ You get feedback from a physical therapist and real time modifications that work for you.

Our next session starts March 18th. The class is 8 weeks long, and by the end you'll be back to doing the activities you love with confidence.

Registration is now open at www.foundationptwi.com. We'd love to have you join us!

I'm not saying I can save marriages as a pelvic floor therapist...

But I'm also not saying I can't 😉

If you find yourself avoiding intimacy with your spouse because of pain and discomfort, there is a solution. And that solution is pelvic floor therapy.

After baby, everything goes haywire, both in life and in our bodies. But it doesn't have to be permanent. It doesn't have to stop you from connecting with your husband in the bedroom.

It's only the new status quo if it you let it be.

There is still time before Valentine's Day to get relief and spend the *entire* night connecting with your hubby.

You know how sometimes you look at the calendar and all of a sudden you realize *days* have passed and your to-do list still hasn't been worked on?

Well, that's what happened this week. Our Wednesday night class came and went... it was wonderful, we did so much good work on opening up our hips and accessing our glute muscles again to support our core and pelvic floor... and now all of a sudden it's Sunday and I'm playing catch up on posting here 😅

Let's blame it on pregnancy brain, shall we? 🤰🏽😂

BUT! On a positive note, the moms in our class this week did some awesome work getting their booties working for them again 🍑 Pregnancy is notorious for flattening out our butts, which happens for a number of reasons. It really becomes a problem quite quickly though and it's not just an issue of "looks"- it can lead to tight pelvic floors, hip pain, low back pain, upper back pain, even foot pain! Correcting that is a huge part of pelvic floor recovery and support after baby.

Wishing you'd been able to join us this session? I'm excited to announce that the next session of our postpartum course is going to be starting on March 18th! If you missed the last one, make sure you pop on over to our website because registration will be opening tonight! We are once again limiting the number of participants so the class can be more individualized. If you are wanting to sign up, don't wait!

Head on over to www.foundationptwi.com to register or shoot me a DM.
And as always, if you're looking for one-on-one pelvic floor therapy help, we've got you covered there as well. You can book online at our website and we'll get you feeling right as rain in no time.

Love is in the air with Valentine's Day right around the corner. Don't let pain hold you back- it's doesn't belong as part of your love life.

If you *do* happen to be dreading next week because you know that the night is going to end in:
⛔ Pain
💔 Disappointment
💢 Frustration
Know that we can help you!

At Foundation PT, moms find relief from pain with in*******se. Women walk out of their first session in significantly less pain than when they came in. And the best part? They are EXCITED to "test things out" because they feel so different- all after just one session!

This Valentine's Day, you deserve to enjoy your spouse. Schedule with us online at www.foundationptwi.com or send us a DM.

What are you choosing for this Valentine's Day?

If I were you, I'd choose less ouch, more smooch 😘

Pain after baby isn't normal. If you're avoiding intimacy or gritting your teeth through it, it's time to see a pelvic floor therapist.

The women who come to Foundation PT find their pain almost completely gone after just their first session. We get results fast, and we work with you to get to the bottom of them so that they don't come back.

Let us help you check "yes" this Valentine's Day. We have time for you.

Schedule online at www.foundationptwi.com or send us a DM.

This Valentine's Day, don't let pain stop you from having fun!

There are a lot of reasons for painful in*******se after having a baby, and most of them can be fixed with pelvic floor therapy. At our practice, it is a regular occurrence to have moms leave their first session feeling significantly better than when they walked in to our office.

Can you imagine- after months (or even years) of pain that's left you avoiding (or gritting your teeth through) that intimate time with your hubby, what you could see a significant improvement in as little as one hour?!

You *can* have fun again. You're not broken. This doesn't have to be forever. You probably just need a tune up with a good pelvic floor therapist who will get to the root of why you're having pain.

If you start now, you could have FUN this Valentine's Day. We've got openings for you 💚

Class #2 for the first session of our Postpartum Pelvic Floor Recovery Class is done and we had a great time! This week was all about building upon our ability to perform a good abdominal brace, continuing to work on regaining mobility where we lost it during pregnancy through our spines and ribs, and also starting to apply it beyond just laying on our backs since some moms are eager to get back to the gym!

I am so excited to be offering this to our community! So many moms feel like they can't get help for their pelvic floor because of the cost. And it's true- high quality pelvic floor care *does* cost money. For those moms for whom cost of one-on-one care is a deterrent, this class is the perfect solution for you! You can take care of your pelvic floor and get back to exercising with confidence after baby without feeling like you are breaking the bank.

✨ The entire 8 week session costs less than the average cost of two individual pelvic floor PT sessions✨

Bummed you missed out on this session or couldn't make it work with your schedule? Good news- we are currently planning our spring session! Stay tuned or send a DM so we can notify you when we have dates set for the spring!

Last night was the first night of our Postpartum Pelvic Floor Recovery Class! 

We talked all about the changes our bodies go through during pregnancy and how this can lead to many common postpartum complaints like diastasis recti (abdominal separation), back pain, neck pain, rounded shoulders, and pelvic floor problems. We measured abdominal separations, got an idea of how our ribs are sitting now that baby has evacuated the premises, and assessed if our obliques could use a little love and release work. 

After that we got into the nitty gritty of using corrective exercises to start "fixing" some of those changes! We worked on restoring mobility in our ribs, upper backs, and lower backs, and started working on activating our abdominals again to set a foundation for a good abdominal brace and strength. We also checked in to make sure we had awareness of our pelvic floors and that they were working properly with our breath. 

It was an awesome start and we are so excited to be offering this to our community! So many moms feel like they can't get help for their pelvic floor because of the cost. And it's true- high quality pelvic floor care *does* cost money. But at the same time, it's also true that cost is a deterrent for a lot of moms. This class is the perfect solution for those moms who want to take care of their pelvic floor and get back to exercising with confidence after baby without feeling like they are breaking the bank.

🚨The entire 8 week session is less than the average cost of two individual pelvic floor PT sessions 🚨
