Incomplete Emptying is one reason why NOT to perform kegels while trying to empty your bladder. Kegels will interfere with the natural flow of urine, contributing to urinary retention and even possible UTIs.
Just relax. Sit down completely and let it all out!

Pelvic floor tightness can lead to a range of chal

Pelvic floor tightness can lead to a range of challenges, including but not limited to:
💥 Discomfort and Pain: Tight muscles can cause pain in the pelvic region, lower back, or even radiate to other areas.
💧 Urinary Issues: Tightness may contribute to difficulties with bladder control, leading to urgency, frequency, or incontinence.
❤️ $exual dysfunction: Pelvic floor tension can interfere with $exual function, causing pain or discomfort or other issues.
🍴 Digestive Disruptions: Tight pelvic muscles may impact bowel movements, potentially leading to constipation or other digestive issues.
🦵🏻 Muscle Imbalances: Imbalances in pelvic floor muscles can affect overall posture and contribute to musculoskeletal problems.
🔽 Limited Range of Motion: Pelvic tightness may restrict the natural movement of the pelvic region, affecting flexibility and overall mobility.
Addressing these challenges often involves a comprehensive approach, including pelvic floor therapy, to release tension and restore optimal function. #pelvicfloordysfunction #pelvicfloormuscles #pelvichealthpt #pelvicfloorpt

Proper breathing is a great way to directly stretc

Proper breathing is a great way to directly stretch not only the pelvic floor but also the low back. When you are breathing incorrectly, it can create an abnormal pressure response on the pelvic floor and contribute to urinary leakage, prolapse, and abdominal hernias.
When you inhale, does your stomach cave in? Does you chest rise? Do your shoulders lift to your ears? That means you aren’t getting any breath down into your pelvis, creating tighter pelvic floor muscles.
Are you clenching your abdominal muscles throughout the day, or sucking in your stomach to flatten it? This can contribute to improper breathing patterns and pelvic floor dysfunction.

⭐️ Poop Goals⭐️
Ever heard of the Bristol Stool Chart? It’s a handy tool to gauge your digestive health. To aim for those ideal Type 3 and 4 stools, follow these tips:
1️⃣ Hydrate: Ensure you’re drinking enough water to keep your stool well-formed and easy to pass.
2️⃣ Fiber-Rich Diet: Incorporate fiber from fruits, veggies, and whole grains to add bulk and promote healthy stool consistency.
3️⃣ Regular Timing: Establish a consistent daily routine for bowel movements. Your body thrives on predictability.
4️⃣ Proper Posture: When it’s time to go, use a squatting position or a footstool to help your colon do its job efficiently.
5️⃣ Don’t Delay: Listen to your body’s signals and don’t postpone trips to the bathroom.
6️⃣ Pelvic Floor Health: Strong pelvic floor muscles assist in proper elimination. Pelvic floor therapy can help maintain their health.
Remember, what you see in the toilet can reveal a lot about your well-being. If you’re struggling to achieve Type 3 or 4 stools, don’t hesitate to seek guidance from a pelvic floor therapist or healthcare provider. Your digestive health is a vital part of your overall wellness! 🌟🩲🥦

🕐 Be Efficient
Did you know that having a bowel movement should typically take you five minutes or less? Here’s why quick and easy movements are a sign of good bowel health:
1️⃣ Efficient Elimination: Swift bowel movements indicate that your digestive system is functioning optimally, with minimal straining.
2️⃣ Less Discomfort: Prolonged time on the toilet can lead to discomfort and even issues like hemorrhoids, fissures, and prolapse. Shorter visits mean less strain.
3️⃣ Balanced Diet and Hydration: A balanced diet with fiber and proper hydration can contribute to efficient bowel movements.
4️⃣ Healthy Habits: Adopting a regular routine and not delaying bathroom trips can help maintain quick and easy bowel movements. Use of a #squattypotty is essential for all! Relax and take deep breaths.
If you find that your bowel movements are taking longer than they should, consider consulting with a pelvic floor therapist. They can provide guidance on improving your digestive health and making the process more comfortable. Your overall well-being matters! 🌟🩲🥗

💦 Post Void Dribble… A common complaint from

💦 Post Void Dribble…
A common complaint from women and men is the feeling of incomplete bladder emptying. This can be due to bladder irritation, incoordination of the brain/bladder/pelvic floor, or prolapse. These symptoms can present an urge to urinate shortly after having just emptied (constant urge to urinate) or post void dribbling (leaking after urination) depending on the reason.
💧 You may feel empty but when you stand up or walk away from the toilet, a little leakage comes out. Post-void dribble can also occur if you do not take the time to urinate or you hover above the toilet. You must allow your pelvic floor to relax and the bladder to contract fully to empty completely.
🚽 Here are some techniques to facilitate bladder emptying:
☝🏻 Sit on the toilet with your feet on a stool and your forearms resting on your knees. This will tip the bladder forward. Focus on diaphragmatic breathing so your pelvic floor muscles can fully relax. Do not push or force the urine out.
✌🏻Once the urine stream has ended, stand up and then sit back down on the toilet and resume above position. If you have a prolapse, this will allow the urine that was in the ‘pocket or prolapse’ of the bladder to shift over the urethra. When you sit back down more urine may come out.

😬😬😬
The connection between TMJ and pelvic floor dysfunction is believed that the two conditions may share similar underlying causes, such as stress, anxiety, and poor posture. Chronic stress can lead to muscle tension and trigger points in both the jaw and pelvic floor muscles, resulting in pain and dysfunction.
Treatment for TMJ and the pelvic floor is warranted for patients who exhibit symptoms in both.

Hips🔁Pelvic Floor
What happens at the hip can affect what happens at the pelvic floor and vice versa. Hip strength and mobility is key to a healthy pelvic floor!
The position of your hips can also influence what position your pelvic floor is in. For example, a hip in external rotation (knees wide) helps the pelvic floor descend. A hip in internal rotation (ankles wide) makes the pelvic floor engage and lift. Oftentimes hip pain and pelvic floor dysfunction exist together. For example, you may be experiencing hip pain and also have urinary leakage. You might have hip pain and also suffer from pain with sex.
Let us help you improve your hip and pelvic floor function! Call to schedule today! 205-202-0874

🗣️Attention ladies…
Ladies, let’s talk about the transformative journey of pelvic floor therapy before and after a hysterectomy or prolapse repair. Here’s why it’s vital:
1️⃣ Preparation: Pre-hysterectomy therapy can help you strengthen and understand your pelvic floor, setting the stage for a smoother recovery. (It may help prevent the overall need for the surgery!)
2️⃣ Post-Surgery Support: After the procedure, therapy aids in your healing process, addressing pain, swelling, and any complications.
3️⃣ Pelvic Floor Restoration: Surgery can impact pelvic floor function. Therapy focuses on restoring strength and function for better overall health.
4️⃣ Symptom Relief: Whether for prolapse or other concerns, therapy can alleviate symptoms and improve your quality of life.
5️⃣ Prevent Future Issues: Therapy can teach you techniques to prevent future pelvic floor problems and support long-term health.
Your pelvic health journey is unique, and therapy ensures that you receive personalized care every step of the way. Remember, you’re not alone, and you’re in control of your health and well-being. 🌟💪🩲

💥 🦵🏻💥 Pelvic floor tension often arise

💥 🦵🏻💥
Pelvic floor tension often arises when there is a weakness present in a nearby muscle group. This causes the pelvic floor to tense up to create stability in the lumbopelvic region to make up for the weakness elsewhere. Strengthening the adductors can help take some of the load off of the pelvic floor and therefore decrease the tension. If you have tight adductors, do not assume that is because they are strong; muscles can be tight and weak.

🚫 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗞𝗲𝗴𝗲𝗹 𝗠𝘆𝘁𝗵:
Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time to bust the myth that Kegels are a one-size-fits-all solution for bladder problems. Here’s why they won’t fix everything:
1️⃣ Underlying Issues: Bladder problems can have various underlying causes, from muscle imbalances to nerve issues. Kegels may not address these root problems.
2️⃣ Improper Technique: Performing Kegels incorrectly can do more harm than good. It’s essential to learn the right technique under the guidance of a pelvic floor therapist.
3️⃣ Muscle Coordination: Bladder control requires well-coordinated pelvic floor muscles, not just strength. Kegels may miss this aspect.
4️⃣ Individual Differences: Every body is unique. What works for one person may not work for another. Personalized treatment is crucial.
5️⃣ Complexity of Bladder Health: Bladder problems can be complex and multifaceted. A holistic approach, including therapy, is often needed.
If you’re struggling with bladder issues, don’t rely solely on Kegels. Consult with a pelvic floor therapist to explore comprehensive solutions tailored to your specific needs. Your bladder and overall pelvic health deserve individualized care! 🌈💪🚽

No 💦 is normal!
Ladies, let’s talk about stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and how pelvic floor therapy can be a game-changer in your journey to regain control. Here’s why it’s a top choice:
1️⃣ Targeted Approach: Pelvic floor therapy directly addresses the pelvic muscles involved in bladder control. It’s not a one-size-fits-all solution.
2️⃣ Strength and Coordination: Therapy helps strengthen and coordinate the pelvic floor muscles, providing better support to your bladder.
3️⃣ Techniques and Education: Therapists teach techniques to prevent leaks and educate you on lifestyle changes to support your bladder health.
4️⃣ Non-Invasive: Say goodbye to invasive procedures or medications. Therapy is a natural, effective solution.
5️⃣ Long-Term Results: By addressing the root causes of SUI, therapy can lead to lasting improvement and reduced reliance on pads or liners.
So, if stress urinary incontinence is impacting your life, don’t hesitate to consult with a pelvic floor therapist. You’ve got the power to take control and live confidently! 🌟🩲❤️ #PelvicFloorTherapy #SUI #PelvicFloorHealth #stressurinaryincontinence #bladderleakage #bladderleaks #bladderproblems #bladderhealth

Womb Work 🫳🏼
Mercier Therapy is an alternative fertility treatment that can be utilized on it’s own or as a complement to any assisted reproductive technology (ART) such as IVF or IUI. Mercier Therapy is performed externally; it is deep pelvic organ visceral manipulation techniques that address scar tissue, adhesions, and decreased mobility of the pelvic and reproductive organs. Mobility of the organs plays an integral role in proper blood flow and optimal organ function. By improving the mobility of any structure in the body, whether it’s a musculoskeletal structure or a uterus, you optimize and enhance the function of that structure. Many of the women who seek our services have a history of pelvic or abdominal surgery, endometriosis or PCOS, all of which increase the likelihood of pelvic organ adhesions. Restrictions can affect the function of these organs and can cause pain, lack of blood and lymphatic flow, hormone imbalance, and decreased risk of fertility.

💡 Why Scar Mobilization? Scars, whether from su

💡 Why Scar Mobilization?
Scars, whether from surgery or injury, can have a more profound impact on our bodies than we might think. Here’s why giving your scars some extra attention matters:
1️⃣ Release Tension: Scars can tighten up over time, potentially leading to discomfort and restricted movement. Mobilizing them can help release that built-up tension.
2️⃣ Enhanced Blood Flow: Mobilization techniques promote better blood circulation around the scar area, aiding in the healing process and reducing stiffness.
3️⃣ Improved Function: If you’ve noticed any changes in how your body moves or feels due to scars, mobilization can help restore function and flexibility. Mobilizing abdominal scars helps restore proper function to the internal organs and can greatly aid in fertility!
Scars on the abdominal wall, perineal body, and hips can contribute to dysfunction of the pelvic floor.
4️⃣ Less Pain: Whether it’s surgical scars or old injuries, scar mobilization can be a game-changer in managing and reducing pain.
5️⃣ Overall Wellbeing: Taking care of your scars is a holistic approach to self-care, contributing to your physical and emotional well-being.
Remember, friends, your scars are part of your unique journey, and giving them a little love and attention can make a world of difference. 💪

Your breath holds the power to nurture your pelvic

Your breath holds the power to nurture your pelvic floor! Here’s why diaphragmatic breathing matters in relation to your pelvic health:
1️⃣ Pelvic Floor Connection: Diaphragmatic breathing helps you establish a strong connection with your pelvic floor muscles. As you inhale, your diaphragm descends, naturally relaxing the pelvic floor.
2️⃣ Optimal Function: Deep, diaphragmatic breaths encourage proper relaxation and contraction of the pelvic floor, supporting its overall function.
3️⃣ Stress Reduction: Deep breaths calm the nervous system, reducing stress and tension that can negatively affect your pelvic floor.
4️⃣ Improved Posture: Good breathing promotes better posture, which is essential for pelvic floor health and overall well-being.
5️⃣ Coordination: Diaphragmatic breathing enhances the coordination of your core muscles, ensuring better support for your pelvic organs.
So, breathe in that pelvic power! Incorporate diaphragmatic breathing into your daily routine, and consider consulting a pelvic floor therapist to unlock the full potential of your pelvic health. Your body will thank you for it! 🌟💨 #PelvicFloorTherapy #DiaphragmaticBreathing #PelvicFloorHealth #womenshealth #bladderhealth #postpartumrecovery #mindbodyconnection #bladderproblems #bladdercontrol #bladderleakage #kegels

Pain in the 🍑 Hemorrhoids and anal fissures c

Pain in the 🍑
Hemorrhoids and anal fissures can be more than just a pain in the you-know-where. These issues can be telltale signs of pelvic floor dysfunction. Here’s why:
1️⃣ Straining: Struggling with bowel movements can overwork the pelvic floor muscles, potentially leading to issues like hemorrhoids and fissures.
2️⃣ Muscle Imbalances: Pelvic floor dysfunction often involves imbalances in the muscles of the pelvic region, which can affect bowel health.
3️⃣ Bowel Habits: Irregular or inconsistent bowel movements can be a result of pelvic floor dysfunction, contributing to issues in the anal area.
4️⃣ Coordination: The pelvic floor muscles need to coordinate properly for smooth bowel movements. Dysfunction can disrupt this coordination.
Pelvic floor therapy can address these concerns. It’s not just about healing the symptoms; it’s about addressing the root causes and restoring your pelvic health. 🌈💪
If you’re experiencing discomfort “down there,” don’t hesitate to consult with a pelvic floor therapist. They can help you find relief and improve your overall well-being. 🌟🍑 #PelvicFloorTherapy #Hemorrhoids #AnalFissures #PelvicFloorHealth #constipationproblems #constipationremedy
