The Best Exercise Is the One You Can Sustain When discussing exercise for endometriosis, one of the most important factors is adherence. Research in chronic pain consistently shows that the most effective exercise programs are those that people can maintain over time. Enjoyable and meaningful movement is far more likely to be continued than exercise that feels punishing or overwhelming. This means that the best exercise is not a single specific method. Instead, the best program is one that feels safe, manageable, and adaptable to the fluctuations that often occur with pelvic pain conditions. This also may mean that the best exercise for one person, will be different for the best exercise for another. Consistency matters far more than intensity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/fc9a8a8a-b1df-4316-b261-782101598e98/Class+timetable.png Blog - Exercise & Endo (Pelvic Pain) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.thepelvicstudio.com/blog/postnatalprolapse monthly 0.5 2026-03-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/fb164df3-9df6-4039-a8af-7d37b3567de5/The+Pelvic+Studio+-+Working+Shots+%28102+of+151%29.jpg Blog - Postnatal Prolapse - Postnatal prolapse by Emma Green https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/a5a2ce14-51a1-40a9-9e98-0a3592903255/pop+types.jpg Blog - Postnatal Prolapse - What are the types of prolapse?

Horizontal rest helps to bring cortisol levels down, reduce vulval swelling and encourage healing. Horizontal rest also reduces the impact of gravity on the pelvic floor giving the muscles time to rest and recover. We recommend 10-45 minutes of lying down a few times a day during awake times. Intersperse your horizontal rest with gentle activity such as walking around your room/home. Gentle activity is important too, as it reduces DVT risk and assists with muscular recovery. So, it's a bit of yin-yang, i.e. balancing rest with gentle movement for optimal recovery. A great way to fit in enough horizontal rest is to breastfeed lying on your side. Here is a guide on how to breastfeed in side-lying. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/9bfb6023-c01a-4cd5-a6f1-950fb1dd28d4/Screenshot+2024-09-19+at+2.17.51%E2%80%AFPM.png Blog - TPS' Recovery Guide for the First 6 Weeks Postpartum - Happy Bowels Some people feel nervous about opening their bowels after delivery. Constipation postpartum is extremely common, especially if you are taking pain medication. Avoiding constipation and straining is the best thing you can do for your pelvic floor recovery. Good bowel habits also keep your parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous system happy, which has been shown to reduce the chance of postnatal depression (Musser et al, 2012). Here are some tips for happy bowels after delivery. · Don’t delay the urge – if you feel the urge to use your bowels, act on it immediately! Try not to delay the need to go · If you feel nervous or sore, place some toilet paper around your hand and place a gentle upward pressure on your perineum, then lean forward and relax your pelvic floor · Use good pooing posture – you bet we have a blog on how to poo! · Happy bowels require adequate hydration (1.5-2L per day, more if breastfeeding) · Eat plenty of fibre (fruits, vegetables, whole grains) · Speak with your midwife, doctor or pharmacist about stool softeners https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1624251728979-PY6S4Z47HIEJNJV9LPRG/IMG_9803.jpg Blog - TPS' Recovery Guide for the First 6 Weeks Postpartum - Support Garments Support to your back and pelvis via compression garments can feel so good in the early stages of your recovery! Garments can increase your overall comfort levels, reduce aches and pains, enhance abdominal wall and pelvic floor recovery, support a swollen perineum, improve posture and stability, and reduce muscular fatigue. The Pelvic Studio have various compression garments options, including the SRC Recovery range, Tubigrip and Belly Bands. Compression garments should be firm, but comfortable. They should not cause any pain or restrict movement or breathing. Our friendly team can talk you through the options to find the best fit for you! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/9fc0fc72-d554-4643-b4cc-9304d33ca96f/IMG_3465.jpg Blog - TPS' Recovery Guide for the First 6 Weeks Postpartum - Tip 5 - See your pelvic floor physiotherapist for your 6-week postnatal check During the first months after delivery, medical check-ups are often focused on your bub. While we love to hold your new baby, our main focus is to hold you! In other words, we are here to guide and support you through your postnatal recovery and getting you back to the things you love doing. Research shows that pelvic floor muscle training taught by a pelvic floor physiotherapist significantly reduces the risk of incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse. However, considering every postnatal body and pelvic floor is different it's important you get an individualised assessment. The physiotherapists at The Pelvic Studio are highly trained in performing pelvic and whole body postnatal assessments, and providing tailored exercises and advice. This includes how and when to return to general activity, exercise and high impact training/running/sports. After the birth of your bub be gentle and kind to yourself both physically and mentally, don't rush your recovery and do things that feel GOOD for both your mind and body. https://www.thepelvicstudio.com/blog/obturatorinternus monthly 0.5 2024-09-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/efb1da05-5b76-4bc6-b43b-e6f5d003e627/Screenshot+2024-09-19+at+11.20.48%E2%80%AFAM.png Blog - The Obturator Internus Muscle - The Obturator Internus Muscle https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/6a7b9ced-02a5-41be-b37a-73ac8899cf98/Screenshot+2024-09-19+at+11.09.20%E2%80%AFAM.png Blog - The Obturator Internus Muscle - The Pudendal Nerve and the OI Muscle Between the pelvic floor and the OI muscle is a canal, the Alcocks Canal, that houses the pudendal nerve. The pudendal nerve is an important pelvic nerve which supplies sensation to the genitals and innervates your urethral and anal sphincters. Your sphincters give you control over your bladder and bowels. The Alcocks Cana is made up of fascia from the OI muscle. If the OI is tight, it can increase the pressure on the pudendal nerve, leading to sensory changes and/or discomfort in the genitals and bladder and bowel urgency and leakage. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/63566bb4-6b02-4de0-a0ce-c1b8a77b7429/IMG_1409.JPG Blog - The Obturator Internus Muscle - Assessment Due to it’s position in the pelvis, the best way to assess the OI is via an internal vaginal examination in women, or an internal rectal examination in men. An internal exam is a special assessment tool, that can only be performed by specially trained professionals, for this reason it is not a standard part of a hip assessment with a non-pelvic health physiotherapist. With your explicit consent, your physiotherapist can complete an internal examination of all your pelvic floor muscles. To access your OI, your physio will angle their examining finger around towards the hip and can palpate this muscle to see if it is supple and non-tender, they may also ask you to rotate your leg in an out to assess for myofascial tension. Your physiotherapist can also perform a functional assessment, looking at pelvic alignment and knee control with walking, single leg squat and lunges. We can also assess the external rotation strength of the hip, using a PowerTrack device, which can tell your physio if your OI muscles have sufficient power and strength. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/ac067472-2d8b-4cb5-bed2-ae98318feb66/IMG_1185.JPG Blog - The Obturator Internus Muscle - Treatment Your OI can be problematic when it is tight and/or weak! Treatment for OI dysfunction is to release and strengthen! Your physio may do some internal release work on your OI muscles in your appointments; You may also be prescribed a Therawand to continue release work at home. Once the OI muscles are more relaxed, your physio will prescribe a deep hip strengthening program to retrain your muscles. The Pelvic Studio also offer small group classes, allowing you to complete your exercise rehab in a supportive and supervised environment. https://www.thepelvicstudio.com/blog/thevagusnerve monthly 0.5 2025-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1698903236438-BDHAOGXXLBSVQDNS2PXL/Jaclyn-180.JPG Blog - The Vagus Nerve - The vagus nerve By Jaclyn Thurley https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/fc946593-34a0-4614-8527-8064d3690f8b/Vagus-Nerve-1500x800px.jpeg Blog - The Vagus Nerve - For those anatomy nerds, let's talk you through your vagus nerve anatomy! The Vagus nerve is your 10th cranial nerve. It runs from your brainstem, down the side of your neck, it has branches that go to the ear, pharynx, and larynx, then continues to travel to the thorax, where it has branches to the heart and lungs, and then it travels underneath the diaphragm and branches to the kidneys, adrenals, stomach, intestines and as far down to the uterus. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/eddfe788-1188-4213-a656-d623ba924bf4/Screen+Shot+2024-03-26+at+1.07.54+pm.jpg Blog - The Vagus Nerve - Eat a Healthy and varied diet Thirty different plants a week to be exact! - This seems like a lot, but when you count different veggies, fruits, seeds, and nuts, then thirty doesn’t seem so bad. So why does eating a healthy varied diet positively impact your vagus nerve? Well, as we mentioned earlier, the vagus nerve acts like an information highway between the GUT and the brain. It is made of 80% afferent nerve fibers, which means 80% of its function is telling your brain what you’re eating and if your gut is happy. A happy gut means more positive uplifting messages are being sent to the brain via the vagus nerve, this is referred to as high vagal tone. An unhappy GUT (bloating, discomfort, constipation/diarrhea) means sad messages being sent up to the brain via the vagus nerve, this is referred to as low vagal tone. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1f021091-927b-4960-ad8a-0415a0a4eb33/IMG_0002.jpg Blog - The Vagus Nerve - Maintain happy bowels A happy GUT is not all about eating healthily. It's also about eliminating waste well. In other words, to have a happy GUT and a happy vagus nerve you must have soft, regular, and easily passed bowel motions. Emptying your bowels well and avoiding constipation is paramount to a happy vagus nerve. If you suffer from constipation, straining, and incomplete bowel emptying, The Pelvic Studio can help! As pelvic floor physiotherapists, we deal with these types of issues all the time and have lots of tricks up our selves to help! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/8757103f-2c44-4f32-bea1-4f12a3c514f7/Screen+Shot+2024-05-06+at+2.56.33+pm.png Blog - The Vagus Nerve - Regular deep breathing As we mentioned before the vagus nerve is 80% afferent fibres which carry information FROM THE GUT up to the brain. The other 20% of the vagus nerve are efferent fibres meaning they carry information FROM THE BRAIN down to the gut. Information gets shared along both sides of the highway, meaning positively influencing your central nervous system, i.e. positively influencing your brain will positively influence your gut, and thus your vagus nerve. It is proven that deep breathing, resonate (slow) breathing, alternate nostril breathing, and sighing stimulate your parasympathetic system. Further to this, incorporating the pelvic floor with your deep breathing has shown even greater benefit in lowering your blood pressure and getting you into a relaxed state! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1632442548237-AR2GTZ8TU16OEU9M3A49/Groupexercisekarritherabandpull.JPG Blog - The Vagus Nerve - movement Motion is lotion for your vagus nerve. Any type of movement and exercise does wonders for vagal tone. Especially any type of movement that you enjoy! If you are a runner, run. If you are a walker, walk. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1711421378778-U6FJQURLDZSXQUKOIY7G/image-asset.jpeg Blog - The Vagus Nerve - MAKE SLOW LOW SOUNDS As mentioned above, the vagus nerve has branches to the pharynx and larynx.

We recommend this as a first step as it's more comfortable than a regular bike, and to avoid the unpredictable bumps and turns that come with being on a road or mountain bike.

Seeing a physiotherapist with special training in pelvic floor rehabilitation is an important part of managing GSM. It is well established that individualised pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is first-line management for urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse. Additionally, recent research shows PFMT is also an effective way of decreasing vaginal dryness/itching/irritation and painful sex in women with GSM (even if urinary incontinence or prolapse are not an issue).

During the first 4-6 weeks, regardless of whether you had a Caesarean or vaginal birth, try to get as much horizontal rest as possible to allow your tissues to rest Wearing compression around your abdomen and/or vulva can help your recovery. TPS stocks a range of compression options, such as tubigrip and SRC garments. If you had a perineal tear or episiotomy, it may help to re-acquaint yourself with your new perineum – look with a mirror, try gentle self-touch and massage along the scar. If you had a Caesarean birth, doing gentle scar massage can help.

Whilst there are many programs for returning to exercise postnatally, no postpartum body is the same, and as such it is important to ensure the exercise is individualised to your needs. We acknowledge there can be a lot of pressure for new mums to bounce back to their pre-pregnancy body. However, we believe that the first few months are a time to focus on gently regaining strength and function, rather than rapid weight loss. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/2513e2bf-0f05-4598-aaf2-848f4d5156e6/Jaclyn-104.JPG Blog - Combatting Postnatal Fatigue Commencing from any time from 6 weeks postnatal, The Pelvic Studio offer Postnatal classes which provide guided exercise in the form of functional exercise, Pilates style exercise, reformer work and stretching.

The good news is that there is high level evidence to show that regular and individualised pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) can improve incontinence. Having a strong pelvic floor contraction throughout your pregnancy will help prevent or lessen the strain to your pelvic floor muscles. Approximately only 25% of women complete regular PFMT throughout their pregnancy (Johannessen et al., 2020). At TPS we want to change this statistic!!! What is PFMT? PMFT is regular exercise, for your pelvic floor! Your pelvic floor muscles are like any other muscles in your body and need to be placed under load to get stronger. To ensure you know how to correctly contract your pelvic floor muscles book in to see one of our friendly pelvic health physios. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/b01baf22-45ae-4e60-b9ef-ee107d0a2f37/IMG_0363.jpg Blog - Evidence Based Tips For Pregnancy - Regular and safe exercise during pregnancy will help to keep a healthy BMI during pregnancy and lower the risk of gestational diabetes. Both gestational diabetes and a high BMI can lead to having larger babies which puts greater pressure on our pelvic floor muscles during pregnancy and birth. What is BMI? This is a measure using your height and weight to determine whether you are in a healthy weight range. During pregnancy weight gain is normal but excessive weight gain isn’t safe for you or bub. How much exercise should you do whilst pregnant? Exercise will be dependent on your pre-pregnancy level of fitness, energy levels and medical status. Pregnancy exercise guidelines recommend around 150-300 minutes of moderate aerobic exercise per week and aim to do muscle strengthening exercises 2 days per week. During pregnancy you should measure your intensity by thinking about the “talk test”, this means you should be able to hold a comfortable conversation whilst exercising. If you are looking to start exercising during your pregnancy, we recommend you seek medical advice before starting anything new. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/15bcc91c-8aa5-47f8-8014-5a49645d3f29/IMG_1370.JPEG Blog - Evidence Based Tips For Pregnancy - Perineal massage has been associated with lower risk of severe perineal trauma and postpartum complications with vaginal deliveries for first time mothers (Abdelhakin et al., 2020). What is perineal massage? It’s a method used to help prepare your pelvic floor tissues for birth by allowing the tissues to become more flexible and practice relaxing your pelvic floor muscles when pressure and stretch is applied. Your perineum is the region between your vaginal canal and anus and this area stretches to allow your baby to be born. We encourage a “Labour Prep” appointment at approximately 34-36 weeks to go through perineal massage under the guidance of a pelvic floor physiotherapist. You can find out more about this appointment on our Labour Prep blog here. https://www.thepelvicstudio.com/blog/ttnsforoab monthly 0.5 2022-09-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/ed3b4a42-f899-42c9-9b72-cf4281081199/IMG_1267.jpg Blog - Transcutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation (TTNS) for Overactive Bladder - non-pharmacological management of Over-active bladder https://www.jeanhailes.org.au/health-a-z/bladder-bowel/prolapse-bladder-weakness https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/6776dcdd-6222-4019-92bb-d448335742f9/TTNS-fd1a5d41.jpg Blog - Transcutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation (TTNS) for Overactive Bladder - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/52c65904-fa71-4592-aaa0-eeb80deb3fbb/IMG_0994.JPEG Blog - Transcutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation (TTNS) for Overactive Bladder - How do I use it?

Treatments can start again as soon as your feel ready and are generally every week or fortnight for about a month. This is when your Acupuncturist will work to improve your sleep, your energy levels and assist in optimising your milk supply.

The pelvic floor is a group of muscles at the base of the pelvis, creating a muscular hammock. These muscles support your bladder and bowel and are important for continence and sexual function, including arousal, sensation, erectile function, and orgasm/ejaculation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/50c995d1-6fb4-48c6-9aa3-a0ecfef5623c/Jaclyn-37.JPG Blog - Prostate Cancer and Your Pelvic Floor - Do I need to see a physiotherapist for my pelvic floor? Level 1A evidence (which is the highest level of research) tells us that pelvic floor physiotherapy done before and after surgery is the best way to improve urinary incontinence in men post prostate surgery. So, why can’t you just do it yourself??? Research shows that supervised pelvic floor exercises (i.e. under the guidance of a trained health professional) is more effective at reducing incontinence post prostate surgery, when compared to unsupervised pelvic floor exercises (i.e. reading from a pamphlet). In fact, practising from a pamphlet is just as ineffective as performing no pelvic floor exercises at all! Therefore, the evidence is clear! All men should have a pelvic floor muscle assessment with a pelvic floor physiotherapist to have exercises prescribed and monitored before and after prostate surgery. https://www.thepelvicstudio.com/blog/returntoexercisepostcovid monthly 0.5 2022-04-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1647922146848-ZKVLR5E78VOY01QBV7N2/unsplash-image-erUC4fTtCuo.jpg Blog - Return To Exercise Post COVID - Return To Exercise Post COVID https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/6178dac2-d55c-447a-a4a5-01b32efcb080/Screenshot+2022-03-22+151317.png Blog - Return To Exercise Post COVID As the pandemic has evolved, Post-COVID syndrome, has become an increasing concern for many patients.

The benefits include: Psychological: increase wellbeing, reduce stress, modulate pain Musculoskeletal: increase muscle strength & mass, increase exercise tolerance Cardiovascular: increase cardiovascular function, reduce blood pressure Respiratory: reduce shortness of breath, increase lung function Neurological: increase sleep quality, reduce cognitive dysfunction When returning to exercise post COVID it is important to take things at your own pace and avoid overexertion while your body is still recovering. Our 1:1 and 4:1 small group session are a great way to return to exercise at a pace that suits your individual needs, whilst under the supervision of a health professional. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/0f03ff44-eadb-40ee-8183-8cbdfd6353a0/allied-health-professional-resource-for-group-therapy-borg-scale_0.jpg Blog - Return To Exercise Post COVID - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.thepelvicstudio.com/blog/endometriosis monthly 0.5 2022-03-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1648501391414-TU2QIQN9LFXFX8IBDU9V/Jacinta+consulting+1.jpg Blog - Endometriosis https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1648501546364-1Z0DZ5W60XF4NWLE4PCI/Jacinta+Hip+Treat+4.JPEG Blog - Endometriosis https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1648507663209-IVTASW0UPV9R8V3968B8/Jacinta+Hip+Treat+3.JPEG Blog - Endometriosis https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1648586882785-4115RWB6CNVZ6OL01GON/Jacinta+Pelvis+Model+With+Patient.JPEG Blog - Endometriosis https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/8bb8e50b-bdf6-46d8-8631-8f1ed51794e1/Screenshot+%2846%29.jpg Blog - Endometriosis Hip Pain Pelvic Floor Physio Hobart https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1648503298472-CANMECNOJX9QC4EXK64E/Jacinta+Consult.JPEG Blog - Endometriosis https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1648503203167-77UBO49B7IUC6CTETSB9/Jacinta+Pelvis+Model+With+Patient.JPEG Blog - Endometriosis https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/78b958a2-3ef5-4f8d-a5d0-4a53ec5f6462/shutterstock_loveheartabdomen.jpg Blog - Endometriosis - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1648505858589-D18RQ0C6XOL3SCUTC0GC/Morgan+pelvic+floor+RTUS+correct+size.png Blog - Endometriosis https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1648505848653-1ICACH7QOECWRVBPAP91/Morgan+and+maya+in+gym+squat.png Blog - Endometriosis https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1648506004193-S9HMNL3XLYHT2O3R8ZQ9/Morgan%252BMaya%252Bin%252Bgym%252Bside%252Bstep%252Bup.jpg Blog - Endometriosis https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1648586960097-FI2CSA9EV44BIG27DPYA/Morgan+and+maya+lunge+in+gym.png Blog - Endometriosis https://www.thepelvicstudio.com/blog/handandwristissuespregnancyandpostpartum monthly 0.5 2024-07-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1639696630643-QHWPIOCAJIFIV68OJ7W9/unsplash-image-QSupFdwa3F0.jpg Blog - Hand and Wrist Issues in Pregnancy and the Postpartum Period - Hand and Wrist Issues in Pregnancy and the Postpartum Period https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/6f15fa31-fb7a-4c7d-ba75-e56f5e1c9261/IMG_0068.jpeg Blog - Hand and Wrist Issues in Pregnancy and the Postpartum Period Pregnancy Wrist Pain A systematic review found that 30-50% of women will experience some wrist pain symptoms while pregnant, especially in the third trimester (Padua et al., 2010). Many pregnant women report that wrist pain disrupts their sleep at night (Meens et al., 2015). Postnatal Wrist Pain Wrist pain doesn’t necessarily resolve after birth. A 2017 study found that 48% of mothers still had wrist pain at 2 months post birth (Sit et al., 2017). Unsurprisingly, those with bigger babies are more likely to report wrist pain. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/52b13538-6e6c-46ee-954a-1d931db1665a/IMG_0070.jpeg Blog - Hand and Wrist Issues in Pregnancy and the Postpartum Period - How can I manage Carpal tunnel symptoms? · Avoid or modify positions/activities that make your symptoms worse (generally this will be positions/activities where your wrist is bent back or forward) · Keep your wrist in a neutral position (ie hand in line with your forearm), especially when sleeping or lifting · Avoid or modify repetitive activities · Avoid letting your arm hang by your side for prolonged periods and elevate your hand (eg on the arm rest of a chair) when possible · Apply ice over your wrist for 20 minutes every 2-3 hours · Wear a compression bandage or tubigrip (available from pharmacies) · Wear a wrist splint (especially at night) · Gentle fluid drainage massage · Gentle exercises every 2-3 hours · If symptoms are severe or are disrupting sleep, we recommend that you see a hand physiotherapist https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/295e91d9-56f6-4b23-9e38-e0f64b8ab797/IMG_0088.jpeg Blog - Hand and Wrist Issues in Pregnancy and the Postpartum Period - How can I manage de Quervain’ s symptoms?

Inflammation can occur for a variety of reasons including longer periods between breastfeeds, compression (eg from clothing), and baby not removing milk well. Starting treatment as soon as you notice any signs of inflammation can stop progression to mastitis. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1d9192e9-46ce-4c1d-bd48-d86e345d1cea/The+Pelvic+Studio+-+Working+Shots+%2892+of+151%29.jpg Blog - Breastfeeding Tips and Tricks - Managing LOCALISED BREAST INFLAMMATION /Mastitis If you suspect breast inflammation or mastitis, you should continue to feed your baby as often as they need (and consider expressing if they are not feeding well), check they are positioned and attached well, rest when you can and avoid restrictive/compressive clothing. Cool packs on the affected breast between feeds can help relieve pain and swelling, and anti-inflammatory pain relief medications may also help. Seek medical advice from your GP or lactation consultant if you don’t start to feel better within 12-24 hours, or sooner if you are very unwell. Your postnatal physiotherapist can also assist you with the use of therapeutic ultrasound, gentle effleurage/massage to the affected breast, breastfeeding and postural advice. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/d88f5489-9620-4045-b814-5176e2ecd005/IMG_0301.jpg Blog - Breastfeeding Tips and Tricks - Top TIPs for managing mastitis Football Hold https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/a0a03e5c-c173-4540-88ae-5f2e55a570a8/The+Pelvic+Studio+-+Working+Shots+%2888+of+151%29.jpg Blog - Breastfeeding Tips and Tricks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/e50948c9-875e-4619-b61f-0c11a3763b2e/The+Pelvic+Studio+-+Working+Shots+%2893+of+151%29.jpg Blog - Breastfeeding Tips and Tricks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/8ecd9fcc-c054-4ac9-990c-b2fbba9ed235/The+Pelvic+Studio+-+Working+Shots+%2896+of+151%29.jpg Blog - Breastfeeding Tips and Tricks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/4adacb62-789b-4e82-9964-4608feebda7f/The+Pelvic+Studio+-+Working+Shots+%28114+of+151%29.jpg Blog - Breastfeeding Tips and Tricks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/d5b112ce-2ee6-47d6-bc59-a189532b39c1/The+Pelvic+Studio+-+Working+Shots+%28138+of+151%29.jpg Blog - Breastfeeding Tips and Tricks https://www.thepelvicstudio.com/blog/breastfeedinginsidelying monthly 0.5 2025-07-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1637645244646-4IXTFHFD7VYWAKPSXALZ/unsplash-image-xEQObOlsfg8.jpg Blog - Breastfeeding in Side-lying - Breastfeeding In Sidelying https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/3885208b-89dc-4b89-8eb8-54f623737205/IMG_0319.jpg Blog - Breastfeeding in Side-lying - How to do it 1. Place your baby on their back in the middle of your bed. 2. Lie on your side next to your baby, with a pillow under your head (make sure the pillow is well away from your baby’s head) and your bottom arm lying straight on the bed. You may also find it comfortable to put a pillow between your knees. 3. Line up your baby’s nose with your nipple. 4. Roll your baby onto their side. Younger babies might need a pillow behind their bottom to keep them in this position. 5. Let your baby find your nipple. You can use your top arm to shape your breast and guide the nipple into your baby’s mouth. Depending on the age of your baby and the size/shape of your breasts, some women find they need to prop themselves up on their bottom elbow and use their bottom hand to support their baby’s head to latch initially, then they can lie down fully once baby has latched well. https://www.thepelvicstudio.com/blog/defecationtechnique monthly 0.5 2021-10-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1632362256862-M0OXWDPY4RFHXHUV7N9X/unsplash-image-XatMS2NXIpo.jpg Blog - Defecation Techniques - Defecation TechniqueS https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1632722377121-XA5FMFROGF4LU5BTEA97/IMG_0002.JPG Blog - Defecation Techniques - Positioning A correct toileting position is essential.

A good way to gauge intensity is using the ‘talk test’ – at a moderate intensity, you should be able to talk but not sing. If you can easily maintain a conversation without pausing for breath, try to work harder. It’s worth noting that if you are used to more vigorous exercise prior to becoming pregnant, there is no evidence to suggest that continuing at this intensity during pregnancy is harmful. - Aim to do muscle strengthening exercise at least 2 days per week (on non-consecutive days) A good guide is 1-2 sets of 12-15 reps using resistance such as light weights, body weight or elasticised resistance bands. See The Pelvic Studio’s youtube channel for a playlist of pregnancy-safe exercise videos, or join one of our small group pregnancy exercise classes. - Aim to be physically active on most, preferably all, days of the week - Aim to exercise for at least 30 minutes at a time - Break up long periods of sitting as often as possible - Last but definitely not least, make sure you do your daily pelvic floor muscle training! We strongly believe in pelvic health physiotherapy being a 'standard' part of antenatal care. We advise having a pregnancy assessment with a Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist at 12 weeks, even if you’re not experiencing any issues.

Every hour, take 5 deep breaths, thinking about breathing all the way to the bottom of your lungs. If you need to cough, use a rolled towel or pillow to support your stitches. TENS for C-Section Recovery Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is a gentle, non-invasive option that can help ease pain in the days following a caesarean birth. Recent research suggests that using TENS soon after surgery may reduce pain, support earlier walking and bowel recovery, and may even lessen the need for stronger medications. Small pads are placed 2-5cm from the incision site, delivering mild electrical impulses that help block pain signals and encourage your body’s natural pain relief. You can use the controls on the device to adjust the pulses to a tolerable level. You do not need the boost button for post birth. TENS is considered safe, simple to use, and can be combined with your other recovery strategies to make those first days of parenthood a little more comfortable. There is also preliminary research to suggest TENS may be helpful in managing postpartum uterine contractions and can be used as above just prior or during breastfeeding. TENS is considered a safe measure for post birth pains, whilst research on postpartum uterine contractions is in its early stages we recommend using alongside other comfort measures like heat packs, gentle breathing and positioning. You can purchase a TENS machine from The Pelvic Studio for $125.00. Or hire from 37 weeks for $70.00. TENS purchase may be eligible for private health rebates Pain relief Take it when it’s offered! It’s much better to take regular pain medication, rather than wait for pain to come on. Let your midwife know if you feel your pain is not well-controlled. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1619746965998-SNVRFNG2PCUNHC88F5Y2/IMG_9901.jpg Blog - Preparing For and Recovering From a Caesarean Section https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1619746967786-EP53CXVSOLQN73QJISV9/IMG_9904.jpg Blog - Preparing For and Recovering From a Caesarean Section https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1619746982397-95H8VX41VFTOGA2WNPB5/IMG_9906.jpg Blog - Preparing For and Recovering From a Caesarean Section https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1619746983105-H3EW3RSUYLU7MU1KDZX6/IMG_9908.jpg Blog - Preparing For and Recovering From a Caesarean Section https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1619746990593-KVKPQ801A9FYSN907AG5/IMG_9911.jpg Blog - Preparing For and Recovering From a Caesarean Section https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1581756801355-33590086B1743EL147TW/Jaclyn-120.JPG Blog - Preparing For and Recovering From a Caesarean Section https://www.thepelvicstudio.com/blog/guidelinesforreturntorunningforpostnatalmums monthly 0.5 2025-02-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/9e74acfe-b180-485c-96f5-b29f82cd5f48/running+and+pram.jpg Blog - Guidelines for Return to Running for Postnatal Mums https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1611192224636-RO3N30IASNR77CSAWTP7/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Guidelines for Return to Running for Postnatal Mums Hip Pain Pelvic Floor Physio Hobart https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1611202776109-7HVSS1LUH3DQNVXSUPB9/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Guidelines for Return to Running for Postnatal Mums https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1611718835015-1QS779XUYGOH0U8L8VZM/RTR.jpg Blog - Guidelines for Return to Running for Postnatal Mums https://www.thepelvicstudio.com/blog/gestationaldiabetesinpregnancy monthly 0.5 2025-02-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1588902297361-64W52BBLTVRI4JY19T5G/pregnancysittinglegscrossed.jpg Blog - Gestational Diabetes in Pregnancy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1588903390734-H2PILVC9LUJ2MQHTISBX/IMG_0137.jpg Blog - Gestational Diabetes in Pregnancy Pelvic Floor Expert Hobart https://www.thepelvicstudio.com/blog/transverseabdoministhegoldenmuscle monthly 0.5 2025-02-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1585979342581-PLOOH07U7964XI9TPB0B/1-transversus-abdominis-muscle-sebastian-kaulitzkiscience-photo-library.jpg Blog - Transversus Abdominis A.K.A The Deep Core https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1585979432096-0IBHUJNJTJ7WQY4TDQ7P/Abdominal+wall+layers.png Blog - Transversus Abdominis A.K.A The Deep Core - Your abdominal wall is made up of 3 distinct layers Pelvic Floor Expert Hobart https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1580950291140-B8J6C5SV4141BJX2QX6G/doming+in+pregnancy.jpg Blog - Transversus Abdominis A.K.A The Deep Core https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1585981351243-GGVH5FBX9MJQ1FLYBUUR/IMG_0954.jpg Blog - Transversus Abdominis A.K.A The Deep Core https://www.thepelvicstudio.com/blog/tummymuscleseparationinpregancy monthly 0.5 2025-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1580952593890-9VDQ60LLLOL6SZG6LPUV/DRAM.jpg Blog - Tummy Muscle Separation in Pregnancy - It's a needed & necessary thing. - tummy muscle separation Tummy muscle separation in pregnancy and postnatal period. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c5ce3f5da9b0001142276/1580950206804-TQ2XP5C9GYT24H82G2WZ/dietician.jpg Blog - Tummy Muscle Separation in Pregnancy - It's a needed & necessary thing.
