We had the most amazing 10 days traveling through Rome, Florence, and Venice šŸ‡®šŸ‡¹

We ate all the food, drank all the w**e, walked ~25k steps a day, and soaked up every minute of it. šŸšŸ·

Just a little reminder to get out there, enjoy the good stuff, move your body, and make the most of life. šŸ’œ

Back home feeling very grateful, very refreshed, and ready to get back to Lavender Roots!

Every pregnancy is different, which means no two treatment sessions should look the same.

Here’s a sneak peek inside a session focused on relieving mid-back tightness and hip pain, while preparing the body for birth.

If you’re experiencing pain, pelvic pressure, leaking, or just want to feel confident in your movement, pelvic floor PT is here for you. You don’t have to wait until postpartum to get relief and support šŸ’œ

I completed my 5th half marathon over the weekend, and it was my slowest time yet. šŸ˜‚

Yeah, I may have come out a little too hot out of the gates and definitely paid for it during the second half of the race.

But you know what? As I was struggling toward that finish line, I found myself feeling so grateful to be in the struggle.

Grateful to be breathing hard.
Grateful to feel my muscles burning.
Grateful that I get the opportunity to challenge my body in this way.

I fell in love with running about 6 years ago, after I broke my foot. That injury forced me to actually do my PT exercises and follow a walk/jog program (the same kind of program I now give many of my patients!)

That injury taught me to slow down. To be okay with a slower pace. And, most importantly, it made me SO much more grateful when I was finally able to lace up my running shoes and hit the pavement again.

So for those of you who are struggling to get back to running, whether it’s because of an injury, leakage, prolapse, pain, or just feeling deconditioned, I get you. I’ve been there.

It can be so hard mentally when your body isn’t letting you do the things you love. And that’s a huge part of why I became a physical therapist.

I want to help women get back to feeling like themselves.

Because there is something incredibly empowering about feeling strong, capable, and confident in your body, and being able to do the things that make you feel like you.

So if you’re struggling with a nagging symptom that’s keeping you from doing what you love, don’t be afraid to ask for help.

There is a way forward. And you don’t have to figure it out alone. šŸ’œ

A few thoracic rotation exercises I’ve been loving lately!

Adding a resistance band is a simple way to challenge strength, control, and stability throughout your available range of motion - not just passively stretching into it.

These are three of my favorites:ā€ØšŸ’œ Banded Thread the Needleā€ØšŸ’œ Banded Open Bookā€ØšŸ’œ Banded Chop

Thoracic rotation is an essential movement for everyday life. Whether you’re reaching into the back seat, swinging a golf club, lifting at the gym, or simply walking, your mid-back needs to move well so the rest of your body doesn’t have to compensate.

Healthy thoracic mobility also plays an important role in breathing. Your ribs attach to your thoracic spine, so good movement through this region allows your rib cage to expand and rotate efficiently with each breath.

Mobility without control isn’t the goal. Building strength through your available range helps create movement that’s both functional and long-lasting.

The other day, I was treating a patient with shoulder pain and had her show me the movement that was painful. We did an exercise, and then I had her repeat that same movement.

Voila! the pain was gone.

She looked at me and said: ā€œI’ve never had someone test and then retest after an intervention to see if there was a change.ā€

That comment stuck with me.

As physical therapists, we should be testing and retesting. Rather than handing out generic exercises and hoping they help, we should be using a patient’s response to guide treatment in real time.

Did the exercise help?
Did symptoms change?
Did movement improve?

If the answer is yes, great! We’ve learned something.
If the answer is no, that’s valuable information too.

Every patient is different, and what works for one person may not work for another. Testing and retesting helps us tailor treatment to the individual instead of relying on a cookie-cutter approach.

Let’s raise the standard for what high-quality care looks like.

The Strong in Menopause was maybe my favorite workshop to date! What an empowering event focused on optimizing women’s health and providing tangible strategies to take control of a time period that can feel overwhelming.

A huge thank you to for collaborating with me and sharing her expertise in this area. And a giant thank you to all of the women who showed up ready to learn, ask insightful questions, and get better together.

Let’s continue to build each other up and get stronger together. Much love šŸ’œ
