53 - Women's health, pelvic floor, lady bits, and everything in between!

Are you someone who suffers from: • Painful periods? • Horrendous bloating? • Pelvic pain? • Postpartum issues? • Gut problems? • Back pain? • Pain during intercourse or even just peeing your pants when you sneeze? If so, Episode 53 is for YOU! Rachel welcomes her friend and women's health physio Jade Lucas-Reed to the podcast where they talk in a very candid and refreshing manner about all things vagina, pelvic floor, and everything else in between! The two discuss women's health, pregnancy, postpartum, and the importance of treating not just the clinical but the emotional when it comes to women's health. Find out what made Jade (originally a musculoskeletal physio) radically change her mind and become a women's health physio, how having her hip flexor released by a colleague drastically reduced her own pre-menstrual pain, why postpartum is only one element of women's health, and why EVERYONE, regardless of whether they give birth by C-section or not, needs to see a postpartum specialist. Jade explains the role of ayurvedic medicine and how she uses it in her approach in treating patients, how stress levels physically affect our uterus and pelvic floor, what to look for in a good women's health physio, and the most common things Jade sees postpartum that are often missed. She explains the tell-tale signs of a dysfunctional pelvic floor, the three elements of a healthy and functioning one, the role of trauma (sexual or otherwise) and how it can manifest in our pelvic area, and what the emotion most closely associated with our pelvic area actually is. Episode 53 is one you DEFINITELY don't want to miss. Unbelievably informative, funny, and honest, taking a frank look at how we function as women and the importance (and necessity!) of cracking open a bottle of red and talking all things vagina with your girlfriends!
