Hello & Welcome! I'm so excited to share this discussion with a leader in the field of sports medicine, who brings her personal experience as a high performance athlete, her vast clinical experience and her research insights to today's conversation. I'm talking about Dr Fiona Wilson,who as well as all of the above is also a Deputy Editor of the BJSM; the highest ranking sports and exercise medicine journal globally. She is also a professor of physiotherapy in Trinity College Dublin, as well as Deputy Editor of the Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport, leading their Injury Prevention subsection, and she is on the editorial board of the Journal of Sport Sciences and the German Journal of Sports Medicine.Her research focus is the role of sport and exercise on low back pain (LBP) and on brain health, and she's published many clinical practice papers that are changing how we manage back pain in athletes, as well as a growing interest in menstrual pain in athletes (she was a coauthor on the Harrison 2026 paper that I discussed in a recent episode on menstrual pain, as well as a co-author on Dr Ciara Everard's paper on menstrual health (check out episode 113 where I chatted with Ciara about that paper)In today's episode, Fiona shared her personal journey from becoming an elite rower to transitioning into sports medicine research, including her experience with a career-ending back injury that motivated her to study athlete-specific approaches to back pain management. Our conversation focused on how athletes' back pain differs from general population back pain due to the unique nature of using their bodies as tools for performance, and the importance of keeping athletes' voices centered in research rather than relying solely on average population data. We discussed the specific challenges female athletes face with menstrual pain and pelvic health issues, highlighting gaps in knowledge and the need for better support systems. Fiona emphasised the importance of precision rehabilitation approaches that consider multiple factors including biomechanics, systemic inflammation, and the athlete's individual circumstances rather than using generic interventions like static exercises (planks - we are talking to you!)Our conversation also covered the stigma surrounding menstrual health in sports and the need for athletes to lead conversations about normalising these issues, with Fiona noting that better support could help retain female athletes who might otherwise drop out of sports during their periods.Some of Fiona's publications that we talked about today include:Whittaker JL, Schulz JM, Galarneau JM, Moore IS, Ackerman KE, Butler M, Dane K, Dubé MO, Ferraz Pazzinatto M, Gomez CD, Hayden KA, Marmura H, Mizuta R, Mosler AB, Schneider G, Schneider KJ, Sharma S, Trease L, Wilson F, Thornton JS, Crossley KM, Emery CA., Prevention strategies and modifiable risk factors for spine, chest, abdominal and/or pelvic injury and pain: a systematic review and meta-analysis for the Female, woman and/or girl Athlete Injury pRevention (FAIR) consensus., British Journal of Sports Medicine, 2025"The pain isn't the hardest challenge...it's the frustration at how much it affects my day-to-day life, my mental health and my ability to train”: a qualitative thematic analysis of elite athletes' lived experiences of persisting low back pain'' Trease et al 2026'“I'm breaking my back for this sport and they're not supporting me” Trease et al 2024Fiona is an absolute legend in the world of sports medicine - for good reason, I'm sure you'll agree after listening to this episode!Want to learn more about supporting female athletes?

AI can generate outputs and assist in many tasks, but meaning, purpose, and interpretation remain human endeavors. Understanding this distinction allows us to approach AI with greater perspective.

Hello & Welcome to today's episode, where I'm delighted to welcome my friend & colleague Hannah Poulton back to the podcast, to continue our discussion about all things scar assessment and treatmentThis was a very comprehensive discussion about scar assessment and management, and we discussed the effects that scars can have on both physical and mental health. Hannah, who owns HLP Therapy in Leicester and is pursuing a part-time PhD at Loughborough University examining C-section scarring, detailed the key components of effective scar assessment including asking the right questions, identifying the patient's primary problem (P1), using validated outcome measures like POSAS and SCAR-Q, and taking proper photographs. We discussed the high C-section rates (40-45% in some areas reaching up to 70%) and how women are often not adequately informed about post-surgical care and scar management. Hannah shared her approach to prehabilitation for C-section patients, including hydration, nutrition, and preparation strategies, while emphasizing the importance of proper assessment rather than routine compression garment use. The conversation covered Hannah's upcoming international work, including free webinars and a course at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, as well as the launch of her Scar Therapy Network platform and upcoming appearances at the Therapy Show and SCAR Symposium.

Menstrual Pain: the missing part of phase based training? Episode 124 with Michelle Lyons

Hello and welcome to today's solo episode!I recently came across two 2026 articles that really got me thinking about how menstrual pain may be the missing link in phase based training...and so I thought a podcast episode would be a good idea!In this episode, I discuss the overlooked impact of menstrual pain on female athletic performance, arguing that pain may be a more significant performance variable than hormonal cycle phases that currently receive much attention in sports science. My goal was to highlight that primary dysmenorrhea affects approximately 60% of female athletes, with 50-100% reporting performance limitations due to period pain, yet this issue is often addressed through medication rather than comprehensive treatment approaches. I wanted to emphasise that pelvic rehabilitation should be incorporated into discussions about menstrual cycle management, as pain affects brain processing, movement, breathing, and decision-making in ways that can substantially impact sporting performance. I propose a "menstrual audit" consisting of seven simple questions to better assess and address menstrual pain symptoms rather than focusing solely on cycle phases, and of course if you want to learn more...this is exactly why I created my online course "The Menstrual Detective" for clinicians and coaches working with female athletes - to improve menstrual literacy, to understand how to have the MC health conversation and how to identify and manage menstrual dysfunction - when it hurts, when it's too much and when it disappears.

Hello and Welcome to this episode of the podcast, where I'm in conversation with Elizabeth Davies, author of 'Training for your Old Lady Body'We had a great chat, covering the dangers of 'skinnytok' and the mythology around 'bulking up' with strength training, as well as discussing strategies for behaviour change and strength training for women approaching menopause. Elizabeth shared her personal journey from a non-fitness background to becoming a personal trainer after experiencing a mortifying incident of incontinence during exercise in 2016. They discussed practical strategies for overcoming barriers to gym attendance, including starting with small achievable goals, using specific scheduling rather than general plans, and implementing "domino actions" that trigger the full exercise routine. Unsurprisingly, we discussed the importance of addressing pelvic health concerns and how to normalise the conversation around pelvic health, as well as signposting women on how to get the help they need - I was so delighted that Teresa Waser's brilliant paradigm ,TIIPPSSFC, can really help bring about change - if you're not familiar, go back and have a listen to the interview I did with Teresa in Episode 30!)We also talked about demystifying strength training for women who may be intimidated by gym environments (spoiler - its more about asking for help and less about worrying what other people think!)The conversation also covered how to make exercise sustainable by pairing it with enjoyable activities and being compassionate with oneself when plans don't go perfectly.So many pearls of wisdom, not only about the benefits of strength training at menopause but also about using behaviour change strategies to make exercise realistic, sustainable and enjoyableMake sure you're following Elizabeth on instagram @thiswomanlifts and her book is available for purchase - highly recommended!And...if you're listening on the day this drops, you're running out of time to take advantage of my summer sale - make sure you are using the code JUNE26 at checkout to apply a €100 discount on any/all of my online courses - you can find them all at CelebrateMuliebrity.comUntil next time, Onwards & Upwards, Mx #celebratemuliebrity

We explored challenges in communicating with athletes about pelvic health topics, including the need for sport-specific subjective questionnaires and annual in-services (for sports AND pelvic health pro's) to normalize these discussions. Rachel explained her approach to making complex pelvic health concepts accessible to athletes and coaches, emphasizing the importance of connecting pelvic health to overall performance rather than treating it as a separate specialized field. We discussed the role of stress and anxiety in exacerbating pelvic floor symptoms, particularly during high-stakes competitions. Our conversation also highlighted the need for better integration between pelvic health and sports medicine professionals, emphasising the importance of training coaches and athletes to recognise and discuss these symptoms preventatively, comparing it to how they would address other orthopedic concerns.

We explored how pelvic health issues affect female athletes, with statistics showing 7 out of 10 athletes leaving sport due to bladder leakage, and discussed the taboo nature of discussing these topics within sporting teams. We discussed the importance of education and support around pelvic health issues for female athletes, highlighting the lack of standardization in GAA and potentially LGFA, as well as emphasising the need to normalize conversations about these issues and prevent them from deterring athletes from participating in sports.Clodagh shared her upcoming trip to Kenya with Warriors for Humanity and Self-Help Africa, where she plans to plant trees and help communities, for which she is fundraising. Please see linked below to her fundraiser! https://www.idonate.ie/fundraiser/clodaghmcintyre Our shared passion is definitely showcasing the conversation and embedding pelvic health into female athlete wellbeing : there's SUCH a need for better education about pelvic health at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, as well as within sporting organizations, to support female athletes and prevent them from dropping out of sport due to pelvic health issues.Want to learn more about supporting the Female Athlete, and promoting pelvic and menstrual health?

Hello and welcome to today's episode, where I'm discussing neuropathic pain, particularly the Sciatic & Pudendal nerves, with Thomas Dekkers - Tom's background includes his 18-year clinical experience as a spine specialist physiotherapist, his PhD research on athletic back pain, and current role as a clinical specialist in neurosurgery at Cork University Hospital.In our conversation today, we explored how dermatomes can be unreliable for diagnosis, particularly with pelvic pain conditions, and discussed the role of neuroinflammation in persistent pain states. Tom shared his approach to managing neuropathic pain, emphasizing the importance of first avoiding activities that aggravate symptoms before gradually reintroducing movement and exercise. We also discussed the problematic nature of the "core stability" terminology in physiotherapy and the need for more biopsychosocial approaches to patient care. The conversation highlighted the challenges of managing chronic pain conditions and the importance of proper patient education and goal-setting in treatment plans, including neuroinflammation, when compression can lead to inflammation throughout the nervous system, including glial cell activation in both the dorsal horn and thoracic spinal cord. We talked about that when patients completely color in body maps, it raises concerns about nociplastic pain, particularly given the anatomical proximity of nerve roots and the potential for irritation to spread. Tom explained how he helps patients understand that pain can be influenced by multiple factors beyond just anatomy, including sleep, stress, and social aspects, and described his process of developing individualized treatment plans with patients, setting realistic expectations about pain management over 6-12 months, and focusing on improving functionality rather than achieving complete pain elimination.We also covered:Sciatic vs Pudendal Pain Neurodynamics Testing and ApplicationsNerve Glide Pain Management DiscussionNerve Pain Management ApproachCore Stability Terminology DiscussionWhile pain knowledge has advanced significantly, treating chronic pain patients remains challenging due to the complexity of widespread pain patterns and the need to identify key contributing factors rather than addressing every symptom - I hope this conversation has given you some food for thought and some actionable steps to steer away from overwhelm when you're working with people with persistent pain.You can find Tom on instagram @tdekkersphysio and info about his courses at thomasdekkers. com Want to learn more about managing female pelvic pain?

Hello & Welcome to today's episode where we are focusing on new research that really helps us change the conversation about bladder leakage in runners, and why we need to move beyond isolated pelvic floor muscle exercises...I'm in conversation with Natalia Cardoso Campos, who published a really interesting paper in 2025 'Inefficient impact absorption and reduced shock attenuation in female runners with stress urinary incontinence'Natália is a physical therapist from Brazil, and in our chat we presented findings from her master's thesis showing that female runners with urinary incontinence have poor shock absorption capacity at the ankle and significantly reduced shock attenuation compared to continent runners. Her research revealed that while continent runners had shock attenuation values of around -29, incontinent runners had values of only -6, indicating much more energy reaching the pelvic region. We discussed how this biomechanical imbalance could explain why some runners experience urinary leakage despite having normal pelvic floor strength, suggesting that the problem originates in the lower kinetic chain rather than the pelvic floor itself. We explored:urinary incontinence research in runnersshock absorption & shock attenuation in runnersfoot strike patterns, ankle injuries and asymmetry & how conditions like REDS (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport) and bone stress injuries can exacerbate these issuesSome key takeaways for me were the importance of looking beyond the pelvic floor muscles when we are working with women, especially athletes, with pelvic health issues - considering the ankle, knee and hip as well as systemic issues like hypermobility and REDs.I can't wait to see what Natalia's PhD research on this topic reveals!We also talked about a new paper she was a co-author on, 'Sexual Trauma and Pain: A Study of Women's Experiences With Vaginal Dilators and Perineal Massage in Trauma-Informed Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy' (Modesto et al 2026)Natália shared insights from this qualitative study on women's experiences with vaginal dilators and perineal massage in trauma-informed pelvic floor physical therapy,   underscoring the significance of patient rapport and validation in treatment.Want to learn more?

Hello & Welcome to the Podcast!In today's episode, I'm joined by Orla O'Doherty @thecliniccoach for a chat about using coaching skills for behaviour change, especially around physical activity in postpartum womenOrla shared her journey, including insights from her masters training in behaviour change and health coaching, explaining key frameworks such as COM-B (Capability, Opportunity, Motivation, Behaviour) and emphasising the importance of helping the people we work with identify their own goals, rather than prescriptively telling them what to do.We discussed practical strategies including goal setting, habit formation, motivation maintenance and the challenge of implementing these in clinical practice.We highlight how coaching skills can liberate the clinician's role from being a fixer to supporting the person's self-efficacy, noting that this approach not only helps the people we are working with, but also reduces frustration for healthcare providers, while making clinical work more effective and sustainable.Some of the topics we covered:Behaviour change in health coachingHealth coaching on Postpartum careEffective goal setting discussionsBehavioural goals in patient careMotivation vs WillpowerPatient resistance in physio strategies Trust, compassion and how to deal with challengesand much more!Orla is doing great work on changing how we can help move from the old model of healthcare professionals acting as mechanics to fix people, but rather empowering them with self efficacy toolboxes - she offers coursework on all of this so make sure you're following her on instagramWant to learn more about a bio psychosocial approach to Perinatal Pelvic Rehab? I designed my new online course to cover all of this and more, from preconception ,through pregnancy and into postpartum and beyond.

Hello & Welcome to the CelebrateMuliebrity Podcast!Today's episode is all about strength & resistance training at menopause - why are only 30% of women engaging in resistance training at menopause?(and sorry, my sound is a bit wonky at the start)My guest today is Chloe Lewis, who had a non-linear career into women's health, to say the least!Chloe is a physiotherapist conducting PhD research on optimising resistance training at menopause while incorporating pelvic health concerns and tendon issues. Chloe shared her personal journey into physiotherapy after experiencing a heart condition that led to heart surgeryWe discussed how menopausal women face barriers to resistance training due to generational messaging about smaller bodies and fear of bulking up. We explored how resistance training can benefit bone health, muscle maintenance, and mental well-being, while addressing specific concerns about tendinopathy in areas like the rotator cuff and gluteals. Chloe explained her research approach, which includes studying barriers to resistance training in menopausal women and potentially examining how effective resistance training protocols might impact pelvic floor strength. This conversation emphasised the importance of individualised approaches, starting with bodyweight exercises, and the need for healthcare professionals to prescribe resistance training as part of rehabilitation programs for women.We also discussed the similarities and differences in resistance training protocols for men and women, emphasising that proportionate muscle growth is similar despite men starting with more muscle mass. Chloe highlighted that social context and barriers, rather than physiological differences, are the main obstacles for women engaging in resistance training. We definitely agreed on the importance of understanding and addressing these barriers to encourage women's participation in resistance training....and much much more, including her PhD research focusing on the impact of resistance training on pelvic floor health in menopausal women. She plans to conduct a four-armed study comparing the effects of resistance training alone, resistance training plus pelvic floor exercises, pelvic floor exercises alone, and a control group. Chloe is currently in the ethics approval stage for qualitative interviews with menopausal women and plans to survey healthcare professionals about resistance training practices for menopause. She aims to develop a co-produced exercise program that is accessible and relevant to the participants - I can't wait to see the outcomes!If you'd like to learn more about menopausal health, be sure to check out my comprehensive online course, 'Flourish!

Send us Fan MailA Dorset walk to a walled garden. Light dancing on water. A motto whispered at crossroads: onwards and upwards. Linda Jacob invites us into a life built on fairness, quiet courage, and the everyday craft of choosing our response when events feel out of hand. We talk about here roots in Buckinghamshire, a grandmother named Florence who taught kindness without gossip, and the determined climb from leaving school early to earning skills through night classes and long bus rides. One formative moment—watching a senior leader belittle a colleague—sparked a promise to lead with dignity, a pledge she kept across decades in social work, supported housing, pubs, and company directorships.The centre of gravity is service. Linda shares intimate, hard-won stories from homelessness support, including a young father who, after months of learning and resolve, won custody and a new home for his child. These are victories measured in confidence regained, routines restored, and doors opened. Her inspiration comes from ordinary people facing extraordinary pressure and from the disciplined habit of finding a usable positive in the negative. We explore how she practises emotional agency—separating content from reaction—and why “Just for today” remains a practical anchor for focus and wellbeing.There's tenderness, too: Halcyon days in the long spring of 1975 when her first child Brennan was born; music that holds memory—Simon and Garfunkel's Bookends, the ache of Going Home; and a signature coffee cake taught by Nanny Taylor that became a small community legend. We linger at twilight, that moment when day blends into night, and consider legacy without fanfare: protect dignity, pass on what works, laugh when you can, make one good thing well and share it. Linda also speaks candidly about facing serious illness and her plan to turn hardship into guidance for fellow social workers, transforming pain into a map others can use.Come for the stories; stay for the tools. If you value humane leadership, homelessness advocacy, emotional resilience, and the restorative pull of nature, you'll find a generous guide here.

Hello & Welcome to the latest episode of the podcast where I'm delighted to welcome back Grainne Donnelly, this time to chat about her new book, Sports Medicine & The Pelvic Floor, Science to Practice, which will be available April 1st.In this episode, we talked about why we need a book about female athletes and their pelvic health - if you're working in this space you'll have seen the surge in research in the female athlete, especially in the realm of the menstrual cycle, but of course, there's so much more to pelvic health - cue Grainne's great new book!Gráinne is a pelvic health physiotherapist and doctoral researcher, and she has edited this comprehensive 24-chapter book featuring contributions from leading experts including Dr Jenny LaCrosse, Dr John Delancey, Dr Sula Windgassen, Dr Sinead Dufour, Fiona Rogers, SJ McDonnell, Julie Wiebe and the legendary Kari Bo and many (many!) moreThe book covers topics ranging from evolutionary aspects to clinical assessment and treatment approaches, from bladder, bowel, prolapse, with a focus on making research knowledge more accessible to sports medicine clinicians as well as the lived experience of the clinicians that serve them.In this chat, Gráinne explained that the book was designed to be a practical addition to not only clinicians' libraries, but also for coaches and the athletes themselves, particularly for sports medicine teams who may not initially consider pelvic health as part of their remit. She also highlighted the inclusion of chapters on differential diagnoses by Dr. Helen McKeever and practical tools like videos and QR codes for patient outcome measures.If you haven't ordered the book yet, you can sign up to Grainne's website, sportsmedicineand the pelvic floor. com (and there may even be a discount code available there too! ;) - it is also available from all good booksellers and free shipping if you order it directly from the publishers ElsevierI can't wait to get my copy and I'm sure it will spark many conversations and challenge and support how we work to serve the pelvic health needs of the female athleteAnd if you'd like to take a deep dive into the pelvic health needs of female athletes, you might also like my online course, The Menstrual Detective, which include the course Pelvic Rehab for the Young Female Athlete which covers it all in depth!

Hello and Welcome! In today's episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Dr Sula Windgassen, health psychologist, psychotherapist and author of one of my favourite new books, 'It's All In Your Body', which explores the conversation between mind, body and environment and how that can influence and sustain pain and poor healthIn today's conversation, we discussed lots of different threads, including the intersection of psychology and physiology in health care, particularly for pelvic pain and bladder/bowel conditions. We explored the Power Threat Meaning Framework, stress management, and goal-setting approaches, emphasising the importance of process goals rather than solely focusing on pain elimination. Sula shared her personal health journey and explained how health psychology differs from clinical psychology, and we both highlighted the need for integrated care between psychologists and physiotherapists. We discussed the complexities of stress, particularly how it relates to endometriosis and the challenges faced by those with persistent pelvic pain, and explored how stress can be a stressor, an automatic response, and an action, emphasising the need to differentiate between these concepts to avoid self-blame and stigma. Sula explained that stressors can be external or internal, and automatic stress responses can be psychological or physiological, highlighting the importance of understanding these distinctions to better support individuals experiencing stress-related issues.Sula's book explores the intersection of biology and psychology in pain management, particularly relevant to women's health issues, such as bladder dysfunction, IBS and persistent pelvic pain. For anyone who has ever worried that their pain neuroscience education has floundered, and the people that we are working with are left with the feeling 'they think this is all in my head' - this book will give you the tools to counteract that fear!We also discussed the upcoming release of Grainne Donnelly's new book, Sports Medicine & the Pelvic Floor, to which we've both contributed - a great time for book loving pelvic health nerds, for sure!If you'd like to learn more about Female Pelvic Pain Rehab, my online course is available, alongside all of my other online courses, at CelebrateMuliebrity.comUntil next time, Onwards & Upwards, Mx #celebratemuliebrity

I'm so pleased to share this conversation with high performance rehab specialist, SJ McDonnell, who is leading the charge to integrate pelvic health into sports medicine at Sport Ireland.Our paths crossed many (many) years ago but we reconnected when SJ and I started having conversations about how to bring pelvic health into high performance sports - how to bring expertise into this field in a thoughtful way.We discussed lots of different ways to empower and educate athletes, coaches & medical staff about assessing and managing pelvic health conditions, including:the importance of the MC in sports & the challenges of bringing a nuanced approach to menstrual healththe level of information about pelvic health that is available to athletesthe difficulty with the diagnosis and management of LEA or dysmenorrhea in athletes who have limited access to medical appointmentsthat athletes may not seek help for a variety of reasonsand how a one size fits all approach to menstrual health is not a good strategy & how more training & understanding are required to improve the skills practitioners need to better support female athletesUltimately, there is a definite need to do a better job at integrating pelvic health into sport at every level, with the inclusion of psychological health into this domain as well, as there is a complex interplay between physical performance and mental wellbeing. SJ is leading a great team at Sport Ireland and is driving the conversation about creating a safe space for athletes to discuss menstrual & pelvic health. She shared how this approach has worked well for other issues such as sleep management for elite athlete and the lessons that could be applied in educating and involving athletes, coaches and medical support staff to develop an evidence based and fit for purpose approach to athletic pelvic health.Can't wait to see how this all evolves under SJ's leadership at Sport Ireland and beyond!and if YOU would like to learn more about menstrual health and the pelvic health needs of the younger female athlete, then The Menstrual Detective course could be exactly what you need - it comes with free (evergreen!) access to the mini course 'Pelvic Health for the Younger Female Athlete' and you can find all the details, along with all my other online courses, at CelebrateMuliebrity.comUntil next time, Onwards & Upwards, Mx #celebratemuliebrity

Hello & Welcome to Today's Episode about all things Female Athlete with my friend and colleague, Ros Cooke. I had the pleasure of seeing Ros present on this topic at the POGP conference in Edinburgh last October.In today's episode, we discussed pelvic health in sportsthe 6Rs framework for postpartum athletes and its application to broader pelvic health considerations. (Donnelly et al 2022 Reframing return-to-sport postpartum: the 6 Rs framework)we also explored how pelvic floor dysfunction can contribute to groin pain in athletes and emphasized the importance of integrating pelvic health into mainstream sports medicine practice. The conversation also covered ACL injury prevention in female athletes, with Ros highlighting that while hormonal factors may play a role, they are just one aspect among many including biomechanics, training environment, and overall athlete resilience. We both agreed that successful injury prevention programs need to be purposeful, meaningful, and integrated across all aspects of an athlete's training and lifestyle, with pelvic health being an essential component of this holistic approach.I love needing out with clever people at this intersection of hormonal, pelvic & musculoskeletal health - and I think Ros is doing amazing things in this space to improve education, awareness and outcomes - you can find her on instagram @rosralph - you can find my continuing adventures in women's health there too @michellelyons_muliebrityAnd...if you'd like to learn more about menstrual health AND pelvic health for young female athletes - you might enjoy my latest online course, 'The Menstrual Detective' and you'll get the mini course 'Pelvic Health for the Younger Female Athlete' FOR FREE!!! all the details can be found at CelebrateMuliebrity.comUntil next time, Onwards & Upwards!

Hello & Welcome to today's episode, where I'm chatting with Dr Melissa Davidson about prolapse, avulsions and pessaries!My guest today is a specialist physiotherapist in pelvic health, and we discussed her career journey, including her specialization in pelvic health in New Zealand, where she is the only registered specialist. She highlighted her expertise in advanced clinical practice, research, and leadership within the profession. Melissa also shared her experience conducting research in bioengineering at Auckland University, which revealed that physiotherapists' assessments of muscle tone and stiffness lack objective measurement methods, challenging traditional practices in the field...We discussed the importance of evidence-based practice in pelvic health physiotherapy, particularly regarding prolapse and pain management. Melissa shared her experience conducting a PhD in bioengineering, which challenged many accepted beliefs in physiotherapy and highlighted the need to think outside traditional silos. Melissa shared her experience developing and using a 3D model named Lily for patient education, discovering its effectiveness in helping patients understand complex medical concepts. She discussed her collaboration with bioengineers, noting that while the engineers were initially skeptical about her approach, they eventually recognized the value of her clinical perspectiveWe explored the diagnosis of levator avulsion and emphasized that a definitive diagnosis should not be made before 6-12 months postpartum, and we highlighted the importance of careful wording when communicating with patients about this condition, as the diagnosis can be devastating and there is currently no surgical fix.Melissa discussed her approach to pessary management and training for physiotherapists, emphasizing the importance of medical clearance and speculum exams for assessing mucosal integrity. She explained the assessment process for avulsion injuries, including the use of a training model and peer-to-peer learning. Melissa also highlighted the need for informed decision-making during pregnancy regarding delivery options, advocating for patient autonomy and open discussions about birth plans.We definitely agreed on the importance of using validated research and scientific terminology, rather than relying on subjective assessments or unproven treatments.This was definitely a deep and rich conversation, that I really enjoyed...and I hope you will too!Want to learn more about prolapse and other perinatal pelvic health issues, from a whole woman, evidence based, clinical reasoning from assessment to management perspective?

The conversation covers the historical emergence of Algeria as a political and territorial unit, starting in the Ottoman period in the 16th century. Key pivotal moments in Algerian history are highlighted, including French colonialism beginning in 1830, which led to a settler colonial project, the rise of the modern mass nationalist movement in the interwar period, the War of National Liberation (1954–1962), and the decade of violence in the 1990s. The latter half of the conversation focuses on the "Worlds of Islam," emphasizing a polycentric history with no single center. A historian, professor at the University of Oxford, and author of books "A History of Algeria" and "The Worlds of Islam: A Global History", James McDougall details the diverse "technologies" of Islam's spread, including its compelling initial mission, the appeal of social mobility for non-Arabs, trade networks, and the influence of Sufism. He also discusses the historical roots of Islamophobia, which is traced to the 19th-century colonial moment. He discusses why he was drawn to studying Algeria, a country he notes is often ignored in Middle East studies and is known as "the land of a million martyrs" for its iconic history of resistance to colonialism.  0:00 Introduction2:08 Intellectual Curiosity and Addressing Poor Understanding of the Region7:37 When Did Algeria Begin to Exist?

Onwards Christian - and Jewish - Soldiers! It is indisputably history's greatest crime against humanity that some 380 million Christians around the world are being heavily persecuted.  Events of the past few months offer hope that leaders of the civilized world are, at last, going to defend those persecuted simply for following Jesus Christ. Notably, President Trump warned jihadists in Nigeria, including its government, to stop such attacks or face U.S. military action – which he unleashed shortly before Christmas. Some Syrian jihadis butchering Christians and other minorities also faced American military retribution.  And Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently declared that, “We are joining an effort to have basically a united nations of countries that support Christian communities around the world. This is…a main part of our agenda and it's going to continue with greater force and greater might in this coming year.” Onwards Christian – and Jewish – soldiers! This is Frank Gaffney.
