Do you suffer from pelvic pain and wonder if it impacts your life? Are you aching to connect with significant others to understand what it's like to hurt down there? How will you get rid of pelvic pain and how conscious you are of your body's feelings, especially during pregnancy and postpartum?  

 

 

This week’s Empower Your Pelvis Podcast, Dr. Amanda Fisher will interview our guest, Sydney. They will talk about the beautiful things in pelvic floor physical therapy before, during, and after your pregnancy journey, how you can recover from your birth delivery session by maintaining your health during pregnancy, feeling better after delivery, and being able to keep up with your baby as they grow.

 They  will touch on such topics as:    

  • If you are experiencing pain during intercourse, it's important to see a doctor who can help identify the cause of your discomfort. 
  • Pelvic floor exercise is one of the best ways to help your pelvic floor issues. It can help you strengthen and tone your muscles, which improves your posture and reduces the strain on your pelvic floor.
  • If your obstetrician is not asking you questions about your pelvic floor, they may be missing the opportunity to provide you with the best care possible.
  • It is important that you take good care of your body during the pregnancy period because it will help you recover faster and get back on your feet as soon as possible. 
  • The kegel exercise for pregnancy is a great way to prepare for childbirth and reduce the risk of complications.
  • When you go for walks, it's important to shorten the distance and take breaks so that your pelvic floor can actually stop moving and take a rest. 
  • It's so easy to feel like you're the only person who has pelvic pain, and that your experience is just something you have to live with. But it isn't! So many people experience pelvic pain, and they don't have to. It's a problem that can be fixed. 
  • It is helpful that your partner is involved in the pelvic therapy session. This can help to make your recovery more effective, as well as more enjoyable. Your partner can support you emotionally and physically. It's important to remember that both partners need to be ready for this type of work together.
