Nearly all women will experience some form of pelvic care issue over their lifetime — yet many of us aren’t educated on the importance of pelvic health or (even worse) are made to feel shame or ignorance about this part of our bodies. The good news is that there are countless emerging health startups run by women for women — and in this episode, we chat with one of them — Origin and their co-founder, Carine Carmy. Origin is bringing physical therapy for the pelvic floor to as many women as possible through virtual and in-person appointments (and they’re backed by insurance).

If you are preparing for or experiencing any of the following, pelvic therapy may be able to help:

- Painful Sex

- Bladder and Bowel Control

- Serrated Abs

- Body Aches and Pains

- Menopause and Perimenopause

- Pelvic Organ Prolapse

- Postpartum Recovery

- Birth Prep and Pregnancy

- Gender Affirming Surgery

Carine and Nikki dive into these conditions and their links to their own pelvic floors, as well as share some of their own (and their loved ones’) healing journeys with birth, painful sex, and menopause. They also get into stigma, the history of women’s health, and much more! Tune in, learn about your body, and feel empowered to support your pelvic floor!
