POSTPARTUM MOVEMENT // week 8

The truth is, each of us will have weeks we struggle.

Sharing tips on how I navigate this as a Holistic Orthopedic & Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist — both for myself, & my clients.

A dose of my current reality: we are replacing our carpet, which means ALL our furniture is needs to be moved from our upper & lower levels onto our main floor this week. 🫠

Here’s how to still support your postpartum body, even in the most chaotic of weeks! ⤵️
— inhale down / exhale lift as you transport baby’s car seat, laundry, boxes, etc. to optimize pelvic floor & deep core strength / mobility
— perform diaphragmatic breathing x5 breaths at every feeding session to reduce pelvic floor tension
— recognize daily activity movement as… movement! Climbing the stairs to put clothes away, cleaning the kitchen, walking to get groceries, standing to bounce your baby to calm them, orrr carrying boxes & furniture *with optimal form* it ALL adds up
— prioritize rest as healing! Doing too much delays our healing, finding the sweet spot is challenging on hard weeks. Choose rest.

Whatever life throws at you, the foundations you build in the weeks prior will see you through!

👀 Looking for ease-filled, go-at-your-own-pace healing movement?

🤎 Comment “POSTYOGA” & I’ll send you the details to my on-demand classes to lay the foundations to postpartum healing — even when all we can do is breathe through the most crazy of weeks!

Let me explain…

A facial line runs from your pelvic floor to the muscles in your jaw. When we hold attention in the jaw, we find tension of the pelvic floor. We need to look at both to get to the root cause of symptoms!

Often times, if a client struggles with jaw tension, TMJ, teeth grinding, headaches, or migraines — there’s likely a pelvic floor component!

Surprising? For many this is! The good news? You’re learning about this now!

Join me in reducing tension in BOTH areas with @primallypure as we team up for The Flow Challenge in April.
