Hydration & Your Pelvic Floor: The Connection You Didn’t Know You Needed! 💦

Staying hydrated isn’t just good for your skin—it’s essential for your pelvic floor health too! Here’s why:

💧 Prevents Bladder Irritation – Dehydration can lead to concentrated urine, causing discomfort and pelvic floor strain.
💧 Supports Muscle Function – Proper hydration helps your pelvic floor muscles contract & relax effectively.
💧 Reduces Constipation – Soft stool means no straining, protecting your pelvic floor from excess pressure.
💧 Improves Circulation – Hydration helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to your pelvic floor muscles for strength and health.

Pro Tip: Aim for 8 cups of water daily (more if you’re active) and sip throughout the day! 🥤

Should You Use a Belly Band Postpartum? 🤰🏽✨

Belly bands can provide external support during postpartum recovery, especially for posture and discomfort during movement. But here’s what you need to know:

🔹 Support vs. Dependence – While they offer external stability, prolonged use can make your core and pelvic floor rely on them instead of rebuilding strength naturally.

🔹 Pressure Matters – Think of your core as a water balloon. Squeezing at the waist can push pressure downward onto your pelvic floor, which needs time to heal postpartum.

🔹 Use with Caution – If recommended, use a belly band correctly and in moderation. But don’t skip breathwork, core activation, and pelvic floor rehab with a specialist to avoid weakening your muscles or increasing prolapse risk.

Think pelvic floor therapy is just for postpartum moms? Think again! 🤯 While pregnancy and childbirth can impact pelvic health, anyone—regardless of gender or life stage—can benefit from a strong, well-functioning pelvic floor!

Who Needs Pelvic Floor Therapy?
✅ Athletes 🏃‍♀️ – A strong pelvic floor improves core stability, posture, and performance while preventing injuries.
✅ Men 👨 – Yes, men have pelvic floors too! Issues like incontinence, pelvic pain, and even erectile dysfunction can stem from pelvic floor dysfunction.
✅ Chronic Back Pain Sufferers 😣 – A weak or tight pelvic floor can contribute to persistent lower back pain.
✅ People with Bladder or Bowel Issues 🚽 – Leaking, urgency, constipation, and incomplete emptying aren’t normal and can often be treated.
✅ Anyone with Hip or Postural Imbalances 🏋️ – The pelvic floor works with your core and hips, affecting movement and stability.
✅ Aging Adults ⏳ – Pelvic floor therapy can help prevent incontinence, prolapse, and core weakness as we age.

💡 Bottom line: A healthy pelvic floor = a strong foundation for movement, stability, and overall well-being—no pregnancy required!

💬 Let’s talk postpartum intimacy! 🤱💕

If intimacy feels different after having a baby, you’re not alone! Many moms experience low libido, discomfort, or even pain due to hormone shifts, pelvic floor changes, and exhaustion (hello, sleepless nights!).

✨ The good news? It gets better—with time, communication, and the right pelvic floor care! ✨

💡 Swipe through for what’s normal, why it happens, and how to ease back in.

And if pain is lingering or intimacy feels impossible, pelvic floor therapy can help! DM me with your questions or book a session to get the support you deserve. 💕

PELVIC FLOOR 1️⃣ 0️⃣ 1️⃣

Did you know your pelvic floor does more than just support your bladder? The pelvic floor is a group of muscles, ligaments, and tissues that form a “hammock” at the bottom of your pelvis. They’re responsible for a LOT more than you might think! Here’s how they contribute to your overall health:

1️⃣ Supports your organs (bladder, uterus, rectum)
2️⃣ Controls bladder & bowel function
3️⃣ Aids in childbirth
4️⃣ Enhances sexual health
5️⃣ Helps with core stability
❗Fun Fact: Your pelvic floor works with your breath! It expands when you inhale and contracts when you exhale, which is why breathing exercises help too. 🌬️
Show your pelvic floor some love! 💖 Want to learn how to strengthen it? Drop a comment or DM me!

Your pelvic floor muscles can be too tight (hypertonic) or too weak (hypotonic)—and both can cause issues! Let’s break it down:

🔴 Hypertonic Pelvic Floor = Overactive & Tight
When your pelvic floor muscles stay contracted and don’t relax properly, you might experience:
❌ Pelvic pain or discomfort
❌ Pain during intimacy
❌ Difficulty emptying your bladder or bowel
❌ Constipation or straining
❌ Feeling like you can’t fully relax

🔵 Hypotonic Pelvic Floor = Underactive & Weak
When your pelvic floor muscles are too weak, they can’t properly support your core and pelvic organs, leading to:
❌ Bladder leaks (incontinence)
❌ Heaviness or pressure (pelvic organ prolapse)
❌ Lower back or hip instability
❌ Weak core & poor posture

✨ Which One Do You Have? ✨
It’s not always easy to tell! Some symptoms overlap, and doing the wrong exercises can make things worse. For example, if you have a hypertonic pelvic floor, doing lots of Kegels may increase tension instead of helping.

💡 The Best Approach?
A professional pelvic floor assessment + the right balance of strength AND relaxation exercises!

📩 DM me if you’re unsure or want to learn how to properly activate and release your pelvic floor muscles! 💖

Dearest Mamas,

As a new mom, your body has just gone through one of the most incredible transformations. It’s easy to get caught up in the demands of daily life, but it’s so important to remember that prioritizing your health and well-being is key to being the best version of yourself for both you and your little one. 💖

Postpartum health is about more than just physical recovery – it’s about taking time to listen to your body, honoring where you are in your journey, and giving yourself grace. 💕

Here are a few gentle reminders for all the mamas out there:
🌸 Embrace Recovery – Whether it’s physical therapy for pelvic floor healing or simply resting your body, recovery looks different for everyone, and that’s okay.
🌸 Prioritize Movement – Even a 10-minute Pilates session can help strengthen your core and pelvic floor while giving you a boost of energy.
🌸 Be Kind to Yourself – Self-care doesn’t always mean a full day at the spa. Sometimes it’s the small things like deep breaths, hydration, and taking a moment to relax.
🌸 Honor Your Body – Your body has done something amazing, and it’s time to show it some love. Focus on nourishing your body with foods that fuel and restore your energy.

You’re doing great. Give yourself credit for the progress you’ve made. It’s not about perfection – it’s about creating balance, feeling strong, and finding joy in the little moments. 💪🌿

Take a moment today to prioritize YOU.

- From me & my Valentines 💕

It might feel harmless, but prolonged sitting can take a toll on your pelvic floor, core, and hip health!

🔻 Tight Hip Flexors – Sitting keeps your hips in a shortened position, leading to stiffness and discomfort.
🔻 Weakened Core & Glutes – Less movement = less muscle activation, affecting posture, stability, and pelvic floor support.
🔻 Pelvic Floor Imbalances – Too much sitting can create excessive tension (tightness) or weakness, leading to pain, leaks, or instability.
🔻 Slouching = Increased Pressure – Poor posture can impact breathing, digestion, and core function.

✔️ Posture Check! – Keep your feet supported, knees at 90°, back straight and shoulders relaxed 💺

Your pelvic floor supports you all day long—so show it some love! ❤️

Stressed this holiday season? 😰🎄 Back and pelvic floor pain might be your body’s way of asking for help. Stress triggers “fight or flight” mode, releasing hormones like cortisol that increase muscle tension—even in your pelvic floor.

Signs of hypertonic pelvic floor include:
👉 Painful intercourse
👉 Constipation
👉 Urinary leakage
👉 Pelvic or abdominal pain

Tips to manage it:
✨ Practice deep breathing to relax your pelvic floor.
🚫 Skip the Kegels—they’re not always the answer!
🧘‍♀️ Try 5 minutes of daily mobility exercises.
💧 Stay hydrated and get moving with short outdoor walks.

Feeling this way? Let’s tackle your pain together! Start pelvic floor therapy today. 💪💖

✨ Postpartum Recovery Cart Must-Haves ✨

Creating a postpartum recovery cart for your bathroom can make a world of difference during those first few weeks! Here’s a list of must-haves that I personally recommend:

🧊 Instant Ice Pads & Perineal Cold Packs – Because soothing relief is key.
🌿 Witch Hazel Pads & Cooling Liners – For perineal care and comfort.
🚿 Peri Bottle – A gentle, upside-down rinse is a lifesaver.
🩲 Disposable Underwear – Comfortable, absorbent, and stress-free.
🛑 Pain Relief Spray – Instant relief for those sensitive spots.
🩹 Panty Liners and Pads of various sizes– A must for postpartum discharge once the initial bleeding subsides.
💨 Perineal Relief Foam & Skin Cleanser – For soothing care and keeping things clean down there.
🗑️ Poop Bags – Perfect for discreetly disposing of disposable underwear and pads.
🕯️ Candle – A little self-care never hurt anyone!

Your postpartum journey is unique, but having these essentials ready can help ease the transition and give you more time to focus on your recovery and your baby! 💕

Enjoying a festive drink (or two) this holiday season? Here’s the scoop: too much liquid, especially caffeine or alcohol, can increase urinary urgency, frequency, or even incontinence. But with a little mindfulness, you can sip smarter and stay comfortable! ✨🍷

Tips for Managing Fluid Intake:
1️⃣ Balance is Key: Space out your drinks and pair alcohol or caffeine with water.
2️⃣ Know Your Triggers: Coffee, soda, and certain cocktails can irritate the bladder—moderation is your best friend.
3️⃣ Don’t Skip Water: Dehydration can actually make urgency worse. Aim for small, steady sips throughout the day.
4️⃣ Bathroom Timing: Try not to “just in case” pee too often, as this can train your bladder to hold less over time.

🎄✨ Pelvic Floor Tension & Holiday Stress ✨🎄
The holiday hustle can increase emotional stress—and your pelvic floor often feels it too! When stress rises, so can pelvic floor tension.

Here are a few quick ways to reset:

1️⃣ Breathe: Perform diaphragmatic breathing for 5x a few times/day
2️⃣ Body Check: Relax your jaw, shoulders, and pelvic floor.
3️⃣ Gentle Movement: Stretch or flow to release tension.
4️⃣ Say No: Focus on what truly matters—guilt-free!
5️⃣ Write down your thoughts and to-do list to offload your mind

Take care of YOU this season—your body will thank you! 💕

What’s your favorite way to reset?
