Evolving Bellies

Time to get candid - social media is often so staged and clean and we forget about the human behind the lens.

I decided to get into the women’s health area of physiotherapy to learn how to support myself, my body and other women through all the major life stages - puberty, TTC, pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause and menopause.

As women we go through SO MUCH change and often are expected to just go along for the ride and hope for the best. I want to change that with my practice. I want to empower and educate women so that they can understand what is happening with their bodies and how to best support themselves physically during these changes.

It’s a messy reel with lots of tangents, but it’s a true reflection of the craziness of womanhood.

As always, if you want to learn more about how a womens and pelvic health physio may be able to help you, don’t hesitate to reach out or book an appointment.

Paced by you, no particular assessment is compulsory, and if you think I haven’t heard what you’re about to say, think again.

A space where there is no shame, fear or embarrassment - I hope to provide an environment that feels safe and supportive, always.

Do I really need to see a physio during pregnancy if I’m not experiencing common symptoms like leakage or constipation or pelvic pain?

👏 YES GIRL, YES.

Knowledge is power. We can talk through so many important topics:

🤍 What changes to expect in your body
🤍 Current Australian Guidelines for exercise
🤍 Birth preparation
🤍 Pelvic floor strengthening and lengthening if required
🤍 Self management techniques to prevent and ease aches and pains
🤍 Individualised education and exercise for recovery
🤍 C-scar management

The list goes on…

Wondering when to pay us a visit? Anytime is fine really, but Trimester Two is a good place to start.

Any questions? Reach out in the comments or send me a DM.

Off to the practical for the Advanced Pelvic Floor - Pelvic Organ Prolapse course where we’ll be practicing fitting various types of pessaries.

Feeling a little nervous but also excited to be able to offer this as a treatment for women experiencing POP 🤍

Wish me luck!
