Leaks are not Chic! Transforming Pelvic Floor Health with Christina Walsh

In today’s episode, we’re joined by Christina Walsh, a New Orleans-based physical therapist and co-founder of Tighten Your Tinkler, to explore the transformative journey of pelvic floor health. Christina shares her evolution from treating orthopedic injuries to becoming a specialist in women’s pelvic floor health, a passion ignited by her own post-childbirth challenges. Christina sheds light on common pelvic floor issues like leaks, frequent urination, back pain, and prolapse, emphasizing that these are not "normal" and shouldn’t be ignored. She breaks down the myths surrounding Kegels, explaining how functional strength training is a far more effective and sustainable approach to healing. Christina also shares practical, everyday tips—like using a squatty potty and adopting the 90-90 decompression position—to alleviate strain and promote pelvic health. We also discuss the emotional and physical toll these issues can take, the risks of ignoring early symptoms, and the importance of listening to your body. Christina introduces her online program, which blends relief techniques, functional strength exercises, and community support to provide non-invasive, lasting solutions for women of all ages. This episode is packed with valuable insights, actionable advice, and resources to help you reclaim your confidence and comfort. Don’t miss it! Quick Fact: An estimated 40% of the women are living with pelvic floor dysfunction (and that number is likely higher due to underreporting and lack of information around this topic). Many women fear the cost of treatment and therefore avoid it, not realizing the steep price they’re already paying to manage their symptoms – both financially and in the impact the pelvic floor has on the rest of the body.  Take the Pelvic Floor Quiz ASAP! https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/6YGTYNF Decompression position: https://www.tightenyourtinkler.com/backandhiprelief Tighten Your Tinkler Website & Socials: https://www.tightenyourtinkler.com/ Signature Program: Use BIOHACKINGBLONDES for $50 off!! https://www.tightenyourtinkler.com/signatureprogram  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tighten.your.tinkler/  YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@tightenyourtinkler Buy a Squatty Potty NOW: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=squatty+potty BIO: About Christina Walsh A New Orleans mama of two living with pelvic floor issues, Christina Walsh understands the power of transforming pain into purpose.
