If you struggle with SI joint pain, your pelvic floor therapy should look like this. 👀

And no, pelvic floor therapy isn’t always about Kegels!

Your pelvic floor works as part of a larger system that includes your core, hips, and pelvis. When we’re working with SI joint pain or pelvic floor dysfunction, improving pelvic stability and getting those deeper muscles to work together can be an important part of treatment.

SI joint pain can also show up during or after pregnancy, making it especially important to look at the whole picture—not just the painful spot.

This is one of my go-to exercises when I want to work on deep hip rotator activation and pelvic stabilization. 💪

If you’re dealing with pelvic pain, SI joint pain, leaking, pressure, or other pelvic floor symptoms, you don’t have to just live with it.

Save this exercise and follow along for more pelvic floor education—and if you’re ready for personalized support, reach out to Empower Women’s Health & Wellness. 🤍

Clocked in. Clocked out. And grateful for both. 🤍

Behind every appointment, phone call, treatment plan, and long day at Empower Women’s Health & Wellness is a real person who gets to clock out and live a life, too.

Clocked in:📱💻
Answering calls.
Working behind the scenes.
Supporting patients.
Doing the work I love.

Clocked out: ✈️📚🍽️❤️
Celebrating with family.
Exploring new places.
Getting lost in a good book.
Enjoying dinner with my husband.

Being a pelvic floor therapist is an incredibly meaningful part of who I am—but it isn’t all of who I am.

I believe in showing up fully for my patients **and** making space for the people, experiences, and little moments that fill my own cup.

Because taking care of yourself isn’t selfish. It’s part of being able to show up for the people who count on you. ✨

What does your ideal “clocked out” look like? 👇

urns out… taking care of your pelvic floor is kinda chic. 💅

Because you deserve to sneeze without the leg-crossing maneuver, work out without worrying about leaks, and make it through your day without mapping out every bathroom along the way. 😂

And no, pelvic floor health isn’t just about Kegels.

It’s about understanding what YOUR body needs, learning how to properly strengthen and relax your pelvic floor, and feeling confident in your body again.

Consider this your reminder that common doesn’t always mean you have to live with it. 🩵

If any of these made you think, “Wait… that’s me,” it might be time to give your pelvic floor a little attention.

☀️ Summer is coming to an end! Our summer meant baseball, less baseball due to a broken finger, and then more baseball after recovery. We are sending our oldest child off to college and this is a new and terrifying territory! I feel like a first time parent that isn’t sure how to navigate all of these feelings! I had cut back hours a little over the summer to tend to kid stuff, but will be returning full time in September once my kids are all back to school.

As we all settle into new routines this fall, don’t forget to make time for yourself, too. 💛 If your pelvic health has been on the back burner, September is a great time to prioritize you. I’m back to my full-time schedule and would love to help you feel your best. Send me a message to get started!

Your sleeping position can affect more than your comfort. 💤

As a new mom, you may find yourself sleeping in whatever position lets you get a few precious hours of rest—but the way you position your body can influence how much pressure and tension your pelvic floor experiences.

If you’re sleeping curled up, constantly holding your baby, or waking up with pelvic pressure, tension, or discomfort, it may be worth paying attention to how your body is positioned.

Your pelvic floor is part of your core—and it works together with your diaphragm, abdominal muscles, hips, and spine. Supporting your body with pillows and finding a comfortable, supported position can help reduce unnecessary tension while you rest.

And remember: pelvic floor care doesn’t stop when pregnancy ends. Your body deserves support during postpartum recovery, too. 🤍

If you’re experiencing leaking, pelvic pressure, pain, heaviness, or discomfort, a pelvic floor physical therapist can help you understand what’s going on and create a plan tailored to your body.

Some of the most meaningful words I hear don’t come during a session—they come afterward. 🤍

Reading stories like Amy’s is a reminder of why I do what I do.

Pelvic floor symptoms are often dismissed as something you “just have to live with,” especially after pregnancy or surgery. But the truth is, you deserve answers. You deserve to be heard. And you deserve a plan that’s tailored to *you*.

Thank you, Amy, for trusting me with your care and for sharing your experience. Knowing you feel stronger, more confident, and better equipped for this next chapter is the greatest compliment I could receive.

If you’ve been dealing with pelvic pain, bladder concerns, postpartum changes, or symptoms you’ve been told are “normal,” know that you don’t have to navigate them alone. There is hope, and healing is possible.

Thank you, Amy, for your kind words and recommendation. It has truly been an honor to be part of your journey. 🩵

Most people don’t realize they’re doing at least one of these things every single day.

Your pelvic floor works around the clock, but we rarely think about it until something feels “off.”

Small habits—like staying hydrated, avoiding straining during bowel movements, relaxing tense muscles, and taking a few deep belly breaths—can help support your pelvic floor health over time.

✨ Your body is talking to you. These simple reminders are a great place to start listening.

Save this post as your daily checklist, and share it with a friend, sister, mom, or coworker. There’s a good chance they’ll thank you for it.

💙 If you’re experiencing pelvic pain, leaking, painful intimacy, constipation, pregnancy or postpartum concerns, or just don’t feel like yourself, pelvic floor physical therapy can help.

📍Empower Women Health & Wellness proudly serves women in St. Charles, Geneva, Batavia, South Elgin, Elburn, and the Fox Valley with one-on-one pelvic floor physical therapy.

Putting off pelvic floor physical therapy because you’re unsure what to expect? You’re in good company.

Many women tell me they felt nervous before their first appointment—but almost all of them say the same thing afterward: “I wish I had done this sooner.”

Pelvic floor therapy is about understanding what’s happening in your body and creating a treatment plan that’s personalized to your goals. Whether you’re experiencing bladder leakage, pelvic heaviness, postpartum changes, painful in*******se, constipation, low back pain, or core weakness, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable space where you can ask questions, feel heard, and get answers without embarrassment or judgment.

Just because pelvic floor symptoms are common doesn’t mean they’re something you have to accept as your “new normal.”

✨ Feel stronger from the inside out.
✨ Improve bladder and bowel control.
✨ Move with more confidence.
✨ Get back to the activities you love.

If you’ve been wondering whether pelvic floor physical therapy is right for you, consider this your reminder that it’s okay to take the first step.

📩 Send me a message or schedule an evaluation online. I’d love to help you feel more confident in your body.
