Every single one of those reviews represents a person who came to us carrying something they'd been managing alone for too long. Leaking. Pain. A core that didn't feel like theirs anymore. Symptoms they'd been told were just part of having a baby. And every single one of them decided — enough. I'm going to do something about this.

That's the part that moves us most. Not the milestone. The courage it takes to make the first call.

We want to remind you that you do not have to have a dramatic story or a severe diagnosis to deserve this kind of care. You just have to be tired of working around something that's affecting your daily life. That's enough of a reason.

If you're still on the fence about whether pelvic floor therapy is right for you — we'd invite you to read what our clients have to say. 🌿

And if you've been a client of ours (whether recently or years ago) we would be so honored if you took two minutes to share your experience. Your words are not just a review. They're the reason the next mom who's quietly struggling finally feels like she found the right place. Every story you share helps someone else find theirs.

Leave your review at the link in bio. Thank you for trusting us. 🤍

I haven't posted about it much, but every month since last March, I've been attending the York Chapter of the Polka Dot Powerhouse. Silly name, I know, but it's a room full of women, and it felt like a networking group I should be part of.

When I first went, I was told it's personal first, business second. I wasn't sure how I felt about that, because I'm fortunate to have a strong support system and have maintained many friendships over the years. What I didn't know was how much I needed this group. Yes, I've gained some business from it, but the support I've received has been so much more valuable than any business benefit I could have imagined. This group is kind, thoughtful, nonjudgmental, and genuinely supportive in both words and actions. I've laughed at meetings, cried at meetings, given support, and received it.

Each month, our chapter passes around a crown and names a "queen." Think Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. The reigning queen chooses whoever she wants, for whatever reason she wants. For the past year or so, I've watched my fellow DOT sisters receive that honor. This month, I was the speaker. I talked about the role of the pelvic floor and how it functions as part of a team in the body. I was focused on keeping the presentation engaging and staying on time, so when I heard my name come out of Jen's mouth, I was completely surprised. The reasons she gave for choosing me made me feel truly seen.

"We cultivate love when we allow our most vulnerable and powerful selves to be deeply seen and known." - Brené Brown

If you're curious about joining me at a DOT meeting, please reach out. I'd love to have you as my guest. And if you ever spot me wearing a crown and taking a selfie, just know: that's exactly what you do when you're the Polka Dot Queen of the Month.

This month we published two blog posts and if you've been living with back pain that just won't quit, both of them were written with you in mind. 🌿

The first asks a question most people have never considered: what if your lower back pain isn't actually a back problem? We break down the relationship between the pelvic floor and the spine, why the two are impossible to separate, and why treating the back alone so often leads to temporary relief and permanent frustration.

The second dives more into what pelvic floor therapy can do for that other treatments have missed.

If you've done the chiropractic visits, the massages, the stretching routines, and you're still waking up with the same pain then these are worth a read. Sometimes the missing piece isn't trying harder. It's looking somewhere new.

Both posts are live on our website. Link in bio. 🌿

And if anything you read sounds familiar, a free 15-minute phone consultation is the next step. We do not require any commitment, just a conversation about what's been going on and whether we can help.

Here's a list of 14 things that moms are actively managing, working around, and quietly tolerating:

🌿 Leaking when you sneeze, cough, laugh, or jump
🌿 Leaking when you can't make it to the bathroom in time
🌿 Feeling like you have to p*e every 20 minutes
🌿 A heavy or "falling out" feeling in your pelvis
🌿 Back pain that never fully went away after pregnancy
🌿 A core that feels disconnected or "not yours" anymore
🌿 The "mommy pouch" that no amount of exercise touches
🌿 Pain with intimacy after having a baby
🌿 Painful periods or pelvic pressure
🌿 Constipation, straining, or incomplete emptying
🌿 Tailbone or hip pain that lingers
🌿 Feeling like you have to brace or cross your legs when you sneeze
🌿 Being told "that's just what happens after kids" or that theres nothing you can do about it in pregnancy (WRONG!)
🌿 Feeling like your body never fully came back and just accepting it

If you recognize yourself in this list, you already know something needs to change.

A comprehensive pelvic health evaluation gives you the full picture — what's actually happening in your body, why it's happening, and exactly what it will take to stop managing it and actually fix it. Not a generic insurance-ran protocol. A specific plan, built around you.

You've been making it work for long enough. DM us to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation and let's figure out what's next. 🌿

Some important things to note...

#1 Diastasis recti is common and unfortunately many people just thing that they aren’t “bouncing back”.

Often, postpartum appointments are meant to make sure your incision healed, your bleeding stopped, and your cervix closed. It is not designed to assess how your abdominal wall is functioning, whether your connective tissue has adequate tension, or how your core and pelvic floor are coordinating together.

#2 Those things simply aren't part of the standard protocol.

This means thousands of women leave their postpartum appointments with a "you're cleared" and spend the next months (sometimes years - ask your mom) wondering why their core doesn't feel right, why the back pain won't go away, why their stomach looks the way it does no matter what they do, or why exercise feels like it isn't working. They weren't told anything was wrong. So they assume nothing is.

and finally #3 Diastasis recti doesn't always look the way people expect it to.

You don't have to have a visible gap or a dramatic "pooch" for it to be affecting how your body functions. For some women it shows up as instability. For others it's back pain, pelvic pressure, leaking, or a core that just feels disconnected from everything else.

The presentation varies — which is exactly why a hands-on evaluation matters more than a self-check or a symptom list.

SO! If your body has felt different since having a baby and nobody has given you a good enough answer for why — this is worth looking into.

A comprehensive pelvic health evaluation at Imagine Pelvic Health will tell you exactly what is going on, whether diastasis recti is part of the picture, and what a realistic path forward looks like for your body specifically.

You're not supposed to just survive having a baby. But a lot of moms do. They white-knuckle through pregnancy discomfort, push through a birth their body wasn't prepared for, and spend months postpartum feeling like a stranger in their own skin — leaking, aching, exhausted, and wondering if this is just what motherhood feels like now.

It doesn't have to.

One client came to us during her second pregnancy. She'd had a baby before so she knew what to expect. But this time, she decided to prepare differently. She started our Thrive Package: prenatal sessions to get her body ready, birth prep so nothing caught her off guard, and postpartum care to actually heal.

Her second labor was longer. Her second baby was bigger. But guess what? Her recovery was easier!

"I experienced significantly less pain and discomfort during this pregnancy. This postpartum recovery has been much easier and smoother than my first." — Ashley P.

That's not just a the good luck of one mom. That's what it looks like when your pelvic floor, core, and body are supported from the inside out — before birth and after it.

The Thrive Package is 11 one-on-one sessions with your pelvic floor therapist, built around your pregnancy, your birth, and your recovery. We work together from bump into your early postpartum — so you feel strong going in and cared for coming out.

Contact us today to learn more about this service package for pregnant people.

Something you may not know about Imagine Pelvic Health — while our fearless leader and clinician owner Leanne helps run the whole show, the work being done by our therapist Ansley is unmatched.

Don’t take our word for it, here’s what a few of her clients have said:

“It was a 10/10 experience. Ansley was a huge help to me prenatal as well as postnatal for pelvic weakness and prolapse after birth. I enjoyed that it felt like a collaborative effort between the two of us. I will recommend all my friends that are pregnant and postpartum to take their pelvic floor health seriously and go to Ansley.”

“I came in over the summer with severe low back pain and Ansley helped me work through it with expertise, warmth, and creativity. I felt seen, heard, and truly taken care of. Being in pain is so vulnerable — but she helped me actually start to believe that I could get better.”

“She listened to me and my concerns. She involved me in my care and asked for my input. She always made sure I was comfortable. My symptoms have improved, thanks to Ansley.”

“She is knowledgeable, informative, and makes you feel extremely comfortable.”

Prenatal. Postnatal. Prolapse. Back pain. Pelvic weakness. Across every single experience — the same words keep coming up. Collaborative. Warm. Empowering. Seen.

& that is not a coincidence…that is just Ansley & we can confirm that doing this work is her favorite 😆

She is seeing clients at both our York and Hanover locations. Reaching out to get scheduled? Ask about her availability, we would love to get you in. 🌿

03/31/2026

If you’re dealing with urgency or leakage, it’s not just a bladder problem. Bladder control depends on three systems working together.

Here’s what actually improves symptoms:

1. Your nervous system is regulated.

Urgency is a reflex. When the nervous system is on high alert—stress, rushing, chronic “just in case” voiding—the bladder becomes more sensitive and signals earlier than necessary. Bladder training helps calm that reflex so the urge is appropriate, not exaggerated.

1. Your pelvic floor can contract and relax.

Control requires coordination. The pelvic floor must tighten to prevent leakage and fully relax to allow complete emptying. If it stays tense, urgency and incomplete emptying can worsen. If it’s weak or poorly timed, leakage occurs. Both strength and relaxation matter.

1. Your bladder is gradually reconditioned.

If you urinate every 30–60 minutes, the bladder adapts to hold smaller volumes. Timed voiding can slowly increase the interval between trips so the bladder tolerates normal filling again. This is retraining capacity—not forcing yourself to hold it uncomfortably.

Bladder control is a coordination issue between the brain, bladder, and pelvic floor. When all three are addressed, symptoms improve.

Training this control is achievable with the right plan. Pelvic floor therapy is available in York and Hanover, also serving Dover, Shiloh, and Spring Grove.
