🌟GLP-1 Medications: What Women Need to Know

I recently attended an evening lecture by Dr Isobelle Smith, Consultant Physician in Endocrinology &
Metabolism, on “GLP-1 medications – What Physiotherapists Need to Know.”
There’s a lot of conversation online about these medications right now.
Here are a few takeaway points.

GLP-1 medications are not designed to be a quick-fix crash diet. They are a tool to support long-term
healthy behaviour change and should be combined with appropriate nutrition and exercise.
These medications work in several ways, including:
🌿 Slowing gastric emptying
🌿 Helping people feel fuller and more satisfied
🌿 Improving blood sugar stability
🌿 Reducing cravings and binge-eating tendencies
🌿 Supporting improvements in fatty liver disease and cardiovascular events
🌿 Possible anti-inflammatory effects, including potential benefits in the endometriosis
space.

Weight loss can lead to improved fertility for some women. It’s currently recommended that GLP1 medications are stopped at least 2 months before trying to conceive.
An important discussion point was the impact of rapid weight loss on muscle and bone mass.
As physios, we know how important strength training is — particularly for women across all life
stages. Resistance training 2–3 times per week, alongside adequate protein intake, can help support
muscle and bone health.
Have questions about exercise while on weight-loss medication, resistance training, or exercising
safely with pelvic floor concerns? Feel free to reach out.

Wondering what a postnatal physio class might look like? 👶

✔️ Resistance bands for gentle resistance work
✔️ Chi balls for core connection
✔️ Hand weights to rebuild functional strength
✔️ Foam rollers for mobility and release
✔️ Sliding discs for stability and control
✔️ Mats for the comfort of you and baby
✔️ Babies……. making memories together 💛

A welcoming space to ease into exercise after birth. A room without judgement where you and your baby can enjoy an outing together, socialising with our other beautiful class Mums and little ones.

I love nothing more than supporting opportunities for maternal care to advance. My beautiful friends over C-section Hub are conducting research into understanding women’s experience following caesarean birth. This dynamic Brisbane-based team are working hard to improve care in this space. If you have had a c/section within the past 3 years please consider participating in their brief survey.

The power of four words ⚡

Yesterday, my eldest daughter did her first parkrun with her Dad and I.

At about the half way point, there was a Dad pushing a dual pram at a cracking pace on his return loop. As he ran past us, he spoke directly to the woman just ahead of us — a Mum pushing her young baby in a pram.

He simply said:

“I see you, Mumma.”

It made my heart smile and put a spring in my step.

Those four words carried a lot of weight.

A stranger — a man — acknowledging the unseen physical and mental load that Mum might have carried just to get herself there for a 5km run.

The exhaustion.
The planning.
The courage.
The effort.

But also, what a powerful example for my daughter to witness.

Acts of kindness can be simple.
Words matter.
A great example of what good men look like in everyday moments.

Sometimes the smallest acknowledgements can make people feel the most seen 🤍

Parenting is as challenging as it is rewarding. I can’t count the number of times I have relied on my Mum village to get me through tough moments, especially in the early years. I want to introduce you all to Jessica, a talented Be In Blossom Mum who has just launched her business Nurturing Haven to help Mums in the mental wellbeing space during the baby phase. Jessica is an experienced perinatal psychologist and Mum who brings warmth, compassion and a wealth of knowledge to the table. Check out her new program being offered to Mums with little ones under 2 years. We are lucky to have Jessica popping in to class tomorrow to answer questions about her program. You will find her hanging out at Ombra Italian Cafe from mid morning. I am so excited to see someone taking up space in this much needed area. Well done Jess!

Reformer classes during the final weeks of pregnancy are about improving comfort and preparing for birth. Include exercises which promote:
🩷 movement of the ribcage,
🩷 opening up through the hips (particularly if aiming for a vaginal birth),
🩷 relaxation of the pelvic floor
🩷 stretching through the lower back
🩷 calf work for assisting fluid congestion in the lower legs
🩷 greater emphasis on different breathing patterns transferable to active birthing
Programming should consider the physical constraints of late pregnancy. Take care to position women with extra support utilising towels, wedges, chi balls.
Reduce resistance and focus more on the lengthening and smoothness through the exercises.
Allow more frequent rest periods.
Transition slowly when moving from lying to upright due to a possible blood pressure drop.
Question about pelvic girdle pain, wrist pain, pelvic floor symptoms which may require you to modify content further.
Include discussions around preparedness and feelings towards their impending birth. Provide reassurance and promote discussions with their health care provider.
It is a privilege to be part of every woman’s transition to parenting.

Let’s talk movement snacks for new Mums 🧑🏼‍🍼.
Have you recently had a baby, wanting to start exercising but feeling so tired and overwhelmed that you just can’t make it happen? I get it. I’ve been there (3 times over). Why not sprinkle bite-size amounts of exercise into your day in 30-60sec increments. A little can go a long way. Here are 10 movement snacks for new Mums (suitable from 6 weeks)

🌸Bench donkey kicks - waiting for the jug to boil
🌸Bench triceps press - filling the kitchen sink
🌸Step ups on the stairs - carrying the washing or groceries up
🌸Doorway rock - entering a room

🌸Nerve mobilisation - while nursing
🌸Pelvic floor exercises - while nursing
The following can be down while your baby is having supervised tummy time, sidelying play, or simply kicking about on an activity mat.
🌸Thread a needle adding a trunk side stretch
🌸Wide knee rocking
🌸Toe taps
🌸Crunch
Find a little quiet time to rest, opening your chest and belly breathe.
