Podcasts about pelvic health

In this episode, I sit down with pelvic floor physical therapist Mindy English to discuss what to look for when seeking a pelvic floor PT. This is a common question we receive, and we wanted to provide a nuanced conversation around it, especially for female athletes who may not realize how interconnected pelvic health is with overall movement, training, and long-term well-being.   We also discuss what to expect in a pelvic floor PT appointment, why it's critical for practitioners to take a full-body approach, and how pelvic floor therapy can help athletes of all ages—whether they're dealing with postpartum recovery, leakage during workouts, or long-term pelvic health symptoms.   Follow Mindy English for more pelvic health insights: @mindy.english.dpt   Want to elevate your coaching skills?

I also share why early education and intervention matter so much, and why these conversations belong in every doctor's office, whether your provider is male or female.Suppose you've been putting off asking about your symptoms or don't know what to expect at an urogynecology visit.

Mother's day just passed and I thought this would be the perfect time to talk about something a lot of women deal with, especially after having kids: pelvic floor dysfunction. I invited Dr. Brianne Grogan, Physical Therapist and Pelvic Care Expert, to talk about the intricate relationship between trauma, stress, and pelvic floor health. I loved this conversation with Dr. Bri because she not only delves into practical techniques for pelvic floor release, sharing insights on effective cues for yoga teachers to enhance awareness and how to reconnect with the pelvic floor, but she also emphasizes the importance of understanding the pelvic area as a site of emotional storage and energetic power. Listen in as we explore how:

Understanding Pelvic Floor Health: Dr. Sarah Reardon, a board-certified pelvic floor physical therapist and author of "FLOORED: A Woman's Guide to Pelvic Floor Health at Every Age and Stage," delves into pelvic floor disorders, highlighting their prevalence, symptoms, and the importance of proper diagnosis and treatment. Dr. Reardon explains the anatomy and function of the pelvic floor, common misconceptions about Kegels, and the impact of life events such as childbirth and menopause. She also touches on the relevance of pelvic floor health for men, particularly in relation to prostatitis and other urinary issues. Practical advice on addressing these issues, including biofeedback, exercises, and lifestyle modifications, is provided. The episode emphasizes the need for greater awareness and proactive measures to prevent and treat pelvic floor dysfunction.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Sara Reardon, author of "FLOORED: A Woman's Guide to Pelvic Floor Health at Every Age and Stage."

A small leak during a big laugh might hint towards a bigger story. In this episode exploring the pelvic floor, Dr. Olga Ramm and patient Nicole Curutchet answer the age-old question- what's really going on down there? Nicole Curutchet starts off by sharing her experience of developing pelvic floor prolapse, which felt like a “tampon that's halfway coming out.” She tackles the issue of finding the right provider, and shares about her surgery and recovery. On speaking out despite stigma, she says, “this is our bodies and it's the truth, and we don't want people to suffer, so why not talk about it?”   For many people with vaginas, pelvic floor leakage, pain, and other symptoms, are often dismissed as just a fact of life. Dr. Ramm and Nicole argue that it doesn't have to be that way. A variety of treatments exist for managing pelvic disorders, including physical therapy, insertable devices, and surgery.   As Dr. Ramm reveals “birth remains the most common inciting injury to the pelvic floor...It's something that affects a whole lot of us.” Dr. Ramm also discusses research that shows that trauma of all kinds impacts the pelvic floor, “almost like a linear relationship between the number of adverse events that you report and the prevalence of chronic pelvic pain.”  In a topic often characterized by silence, Dr. Ramm encourages providers to proactively ask about the pelvic floor. She emphasizes the value of informing patients about all the types of care available to them and respecting patient autonomy: “You don't have to follow a specific algorithm. Let the patient make the choice based on their individual values, their goals for themselves and their own personal case scenarios that they want to avoid.”   Dr. Olga Ramm's Website: https://www.ucsfhealth.org/providers/dr-olga-ramm   UCSF Center for Urogynecology and Women's Pelvic Health: https://www.ucsfhealth.org/clinics/center-for-urogynecology-and-womens-pelvic-health Study That Links Duration of Pushing Phase to Degree of Obstetric Anal Sphincter, Led By Dr. Olga Ramm Injuries: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29324610/ Chronic Pelvic Pain Society of North America: https://www.pelvicpain.org/public The Body Keeps the Score: https://www.besselvanderkolk.com/resources/the-body-keeps-the-score   Past episodes of our podcast to follow this one up:   Vagina Obscura: A Conversation with Rachel E.

Are you curious about what pelvic floor therapy actually involves? Have you ever wondered whether issues like bladder leaks, painful sex, or postpartum discomfort are just “normal” things you have to live with? Do men experience pelvic floor dysfunction? (hint: yes, men also have pelvic floors). In this episode of Brave & Curious, Dr. Lora Shahine is joined by Dr. Alicia Jeffrey-Thomas, a licensed pelvic floor physical therapist. Together, they're taking the mystery out of pelvic health and explaining why it matters for everyone—not just postpartum women.  Listeners will learn about the wide range of conditions pelvic PT can help with—from incontinence and prolapse to pain during sex and more. Dr. Jeffrey-Thomas and Dr. Shahine walk through what a pelvic PT appointment looks like, tackle myths about Kegels, discuss insurance coverage, and highlight the importance of proper toilet posture.  You'll walk away with a deeper understanding of overall pelvic health and feel empowered to take charge of your well-being—because pelvic pain and dysfunction are never “just part of life.”   In this episode you'll hear: [0:16] Meet Dr. Alicia Jeffrey-Thomas, PT, DPT, PRPC [1:57] Pelvic floor functions [3:58] What is pelvic floor therapy?

Hi everyone and welcome to this episode of the Celebrate Muliebrity podcast, where I had a great conversation with Dr Tina Mapa, who has built a flourishing career delivering pelvic healthcare, with a focus on dyspareunia, completely virtually!We talk about how telehealth is different and perhaps even superior in some regards when it comes to improving access to care and promoting self-efficacyWe did address how manual therapy and in person assessment skills can be adapted...We discussed the importance of promoting holistic health, the evolving understanding of pelvic pain, and the benefits of telehealth for pelvic health, particularly for those who have experienced trauma or pain.Dr. Tina discussed her background and current work in telehealth pelvic floor physical therapy, emphasising the importance of empowering patients to take charge of their own health and recovery through education. The conversation also touched on the benefits of telehealth for pelvic health, the challenges faced by women in healthcare, and the potential of a cash-based model for physical therapy. I think this was a really thought provoking conversation which may challenge some biases!

Ep 143 Description:  “Get yourself love high, as high as you can! Try and focus on getting you all loved up because then you're going to get triggered less when you have a child.” —Tamra Mercieca    The pelvic floor is the unsung hero of the female body - a complex network of muscles that play a pivotal role in pregnancy, childbirth, and overall well-being. Yet, for too long, this intimate area has been shrouded in shame and disconnection. Yoga for the vagina offers a powerful antidote, helping women cultivate a deeper awareness and relationship with the pelvis. By releasing tension and fear, this practice unlocks greater ease, pleasure, and power during life's most transformative experiences.

In this engaging episode of Modern Mom Probs, host Tara Clark sits down with Dr. Sara Reardon, a renowned pelvic health physical therapist and creator of the Vagina Whisperer, to shed light on the often-overlooked topic of women's pelvic health. Tara and Dr. Reardon explore why proactive care is essential, how pelvic floor muscles function, and what women can do to maintain long-term pelvic health. Dr. Reardon offers practical tips—from proper posture and bathroom habits to breathing techniques and the importance of using lubrication for comfortable sexual experiences. They discuss how common events like C-sections and menopause can affect pelvic health, and why women shouldn't wait for symptoms to seek help. Dr. Reardon emphasizes the need to address both strength and relaxation in the pelvic floor and encourages regular therapy to prevent future issues. The conversation also touches on the importance of normalizing pelvic health discussions, building community support, and fostering collaboration among healthcare professionals. Dr. Reardon shares how the vibrant culture of New Orleans influences her work and content creation, and she introduces her new book, Floored, which serves as an empowering resource for women seeking to better understand and care for their pelvic health. Key Takeaways: Women often neglect pelvic health until problems arise—proactive education is key. Pelvic floor muscles need both strength and relaxation to function well. Posture, sitting habits, and proper bathroom techniques (like using a stool) make a big difference. C-section scars can create pelvic tension—therapy and awareness help. Breathing exercises and regular pelvic floor therapy can be preventive tools. Lubrication is essential for pain-free, enjoyable sex. Conversations around pelvic health must be normalized to break the stigma. Community and professional support are crucial, especially during menopause. Dr. Reardon's book, Floored, offers education and empowerment for every woman. Whether you're recovering postpartum, approaching menopause, or simply curious about your own body, this episode is a must-listen. Don't miss this empowering conversation that encourages women to take charge of their pelvic health—with confidence.

Hello & welcome to this episode all about the intersection of hip health and pelvic health, with one of my favourite researchers/clinicians, Dr Alison GrimaldiIn this episode we discuss the interconnectedness of the pelvic floor, hip muscles, and nerves in the pelvic region, how the pelvic floor works in conjunction with other muscles, particularly the obturator internus, to support pelvic function. We emphasized the importance of considering both pelvic floor and hip issues when treating patients, as weakness in hip muscles can affect pelvic floor function and vice versa. The conversation also covers the potential for sciatic nerve irritation in the deep gluteal space, particularly in athletes like cyclists and trail runners, and the importance of screening for pelvic floor issues in patients with hip or buttock pain.We shared our mutual disdain for the clamshell exercise (WHY do people recommend it?) and an exploration of Alison's 2025 open access paper - a masterclass on gluteal tendinopathies Want to learn more from Alison?Here is the link to the Glasgow workshop: https://www.hampdensportsclinic.com/events/events-the-hip/and more course info:  https://dralisongrimaldi.com/event/online-hip-workshop-lateral-hip-and-buttock-pain-2025/  And if you'd like to learn more about the role of hormonal health in just about everything, but especially in a woman's musculoskeletal health, head to CelebrateMuliebrity.com for info on my online Female Hormonal Health Masterclass & other courses, from Female Pelvic Pain, to Hysterectomy, Breast Cancer, Pelvic Cancer, Bowel Health & Back Pain - let me know if you have any questions via Instagram where I nerd out about women's health as @michellelyons_muliebritySee you next time!

Heather Foord, an expert in women's health, discusses the importance of core and pelvic floor health. She explains that the core is a wine barrel shape, consisting of the pelvic floor, abdominals, obliques, and back muscles. Heather addresses common issues like incontinence and the different types of incontinence highlighting the importance of a thorough consultation to understand the individual's symptoms, medical history, lifestyle, and life stage. In this conversation, Heather discusses the importance of pelvic floor health and how it can impact various aspects of a woman's life, including incontinence, sexual performance, and overall well-being. Heather also introduces technology such as EMSELLA and EMSCULPT for strengthening the pelvic floor and core muscles. Takeaways The core is a wine barrel shape consisting of the pelvic floor, abdominals, obliques, and back muscles. A functional core is essential for overall health and supports various bodily functions, including movement, sexual function, and continence. Incontinence is not normal and can be treated through various methods. A thorough consultation is crucial to understand an individual's symptoms, medical history, lifestyle, and life stage. The EMSELLA chair and EMSCULPT device use electromagnetic technology to strengthen the pelvic floor and abdominal muscles non-invasively. Pelvic floor health is crucial for women's overall well-being and can impact various aspects of their lives, including incontinence and sexual performance. It is never too late to prioritise pelvic floor health and seek treatment, even for older women. The EMSELLA and EMSCULPT technologies are effective in strengthening the pelvic floor and core muscles, leading to improved symptoms and overall health. Education and support for women's health, including postpartum rehabilitation and perimenopause care, are essential for preventing and addressing pelvic floor issues. There is a need for better awareness and understanding of pelvic floor health, as well as more research and resources dedicated to women's health.

Fukiko Ostensen is a Steam Therapist and Founder of Poca Poca. She is an herbalist born and raised in the Japanese countryside, now based in the Catskill region nestled within pristine nature. Ever since she arrived in this region in 2018, she has been learning about medicinal properties of various plants through the Hudson Valley herbal community and earning her herbalist certification from Ecoversity.After studying and earning a bachelor's degree in Psychology and Environmental Science in the United States and living abroad in Nepal for 4 years, Fukiko discovered her true passion in educating and working with other women to help heal from women's physical and emotional issues that are often ignored, and preventing them from being the best and healthiest versions of themselves. Utilizing wildcrafted and organically grown medicinal herbs combined with ancestral Japanese herbal steam practice, she supports women's health and spiritual nourishment that can be accessible to all women as part of their self-care routine. When she is not offering herbal steam service to clients, you can find her harvesting in nature, making plant medicines, spending quality time with her family and friends, and being engaged in community activities.Today, we learn about Fukiko's path to her current work, her early life in Japan and her winding adventure to the Hudson Valley.

Pelvic health disorders can disrupt women's quality of life. The conditions might be considered common and inevitable, but they should not be ignored.

In today's episode, Rachel opens up about an area of her life that she has kept private for the past couples of years - and a story she never thought she would tell. It is a vulnerable and intimate story about her pelvic floor. After learning she had a low-grade prolapse after her first birth, Rachel discovered this was affecting many areas of her life. Walking was uncomfortable, dancing led to embarrassing situations, and she felt her vitality slipping away.  But then she learned how common this experience was. Did you know that as many as 50% of women may experience a prolapse after birth? This episode is Rachel's journey into all things pelvic health; from reproductive care to contraceptives, pregnancy, birth and postpartum. She shares what she went through growing up, what she experienced after birth, and most importantly, how she healed. If this episode interests you, don't miss our upcoming episode on March 21 with Dr. Sara Reardon, aka @the.vagina.whisperer on Instagram, where we will get into the nitty gritty of this issue.

Are packages really the best way to sell pelvic health services?At first glance, packages sound like a great idea. They give patients commitment, help cash flow, and make sales "easier," right?Not so fast.In this episode, we break down why we're opposed to selling packages in pelvic health and the major issues that come with them:❌ Unrealistic patient expectations – Patients assume they'll be “done” when the package ends (even if they're not).❌ You're putting limits on care – We hated when insurance dictated treatment plans, so why are we doing it to ourselves?❌ Cash flow challenges – You get paid upfront, but then have to deliver care without ongoing revenue.❌ Hiring headaches – Most great clinicians don't want to be salespeople, and training them to sell packages is hard.At the end, we share what to do if you're committed to selling packages and how to structure them for the best results. But after working with over 650+ practices, we've seen very few do it well.If you've been debating packages, this is the episode you need to hear first!Business Accelerator ProgramIf you're looking to grow as a business owner and meet your business goals faster, make sure to join us for the next cohort of the  Business Accelerator Program!  You can find all the details and submit an application at www.pelvicptrising.com/acceleratorWe've now had more than 350+ business owners through the program - check out all the results and apply now to reserve a spot!About UsNicole and Jesse Cozean founded Pelvic PT Rising to provide clinical and business resources to physical therapists to change the way we treat pelvic health.   PelvicSanity Physical Therapy (www.pelvicsanity.com) together in 2016.  It grew quickly into one of the largest cash-based physical therapy practices in the country.Through Pelvic PT Rising, Nicole has created clinical courses (www.pelvicptrising.com/clinical) to help pelvic health providers gain confidence in their skills and provide frameworks to get better patient outcomes.  Together, Jesse and Nicole have helped 600+ pelvic practices start and grow through the Pelvic PT Rising Business Programs (www.pelvicptrising.com/business) to build a practice that works for them! Get in Touch!Learn more at www.pelvicptrising.com, follow Nicole @nicolecozeandpt (www.instagram.com/nicolecozeandpt) or reach out via email (nicole@pelvicsanity.com).Check out our Clinical Courses, Business Resources and learn more about us at Pelvic PT Rising...Let's Continue to Rise!
