We are not here to fix people.
We are here to walk beside them.
When there’s no single “right” treatment path, your framework matters:
✨ Facilitators, not fixers
✨ Whole-person, not body-part care
This is trauma-informed care.
This is the biopsychosocial model.
This is OT at its core.

✨ The Story Beneath the Symptom ✨

What if the body isn’t malfunctioning… but communicating?
So often, pelvic symptoms like pain, urgency, or tension are not the problem — they’re pointing to something deeper. When we shift from “How do I fix this?” to “What’s this protecting?” everything changes.

Trauma-informed pelvic health starts with curiosity, compassion, and honoring the client as the expert of their own body.
Let’s listen before we treat. 💛

🚴‍♀️✨ Cycling + Pelvic Health = A Conversation We NEED to Have ✨🚴‍♀️

My guest today is Desirae LeBlanc, joining me to talk all things cycling, saddle comfort, and pelvic floor health.

As an avid mountain and gravel biker herself, Desirae brings such a grounded, OT-informed perspective to an often under-discussed topic

This is such a full-circle moment, as Desirae is also an OT Pioneers alum — and it’s been incredible to watch her combine her passions into meaningful, client-centered care.

If you (or your clients) love cycling and want to ride stronger, longer, and more comfortably — this episode is for you. 🎧💥

📸 Take a screenshot, share it to your stories, and tag me to let me know your biggest takeaway!

Pelvic health is a powerful space where both occupational therapists and physical therapists can make a meaningful impact.
OTs: this is our lane, too. Few things are more essential to daily life than peeing, pooping, and intimacy.
You don’t need permission to belong here. You already do.
Your unique lens is needed. Your clients are waiting.
If the noise starts to get loud, come back to your purpose—your calling to serve and support healing. You’ve got this.

✨ Moments like this make it all worth it.

I received the most thoughtful email from an OT student who volunteered at the OTs in Pelvic Health Summit this past year. She just landed an interview for a Level II fieldwork in pelvic health and I couldn’t be more proud or excited for her!

She wrote:

📝 “Being part of the conference solidified my excitement for this specialty and left me feeling both inspired and energized.”

THIS is why we create spaces for connection, mentorship, and visibility in pelvic health OT. The next generation is ready and they’re so needed in this field.

Let’s keep opening doors. 💪
Let’s keep showing what’s possible. 💫

🎉🔍If your an Occupational Therapy Practitioner, did you know that pelvic health is 100% in our scope of practice?

In fact, we are natural leaders when it comes to talking about taboo parts of the body that dramatically impact people's quality of life!

After all, what is more ADL than peeing, pooping and s€x!? 🔥🍒

I invite you to learn how you can incorporate pelvic health principles into your practice setting TODAY by picking up my ✨free✨ AOTA approved CEU course, "The Occupational Therapy Practitioner's Role in Pelvic Health."

In this powerful episode of OTs in Pelvic Health, Lindsey Vestal is joined by Lara Desrosiers, Krystyna Holland, and Lauren Walker for a deep, honest conversation about what trauma-informed care actually looks like in pelvic health practice—and why it matters for both patients and providers.

This episode is a reminder that trauma-informed care isn’t about being “soft” or “floofy”—it’s about hard clinical skills, safety, and better care.

🎧 Listen now and check the show notes to get involved in the research (clinician survey open through March 2026).

💬 What’s one trauma-informed shift that’s changed your practice?
