What We Get Wrong about OAB: An Interview with Taryn Hallam
09 Sep 2024
01:06:45
A dynamic speaker and teacher, Taryn has personally educated more clinicians in fitting pessaries than anyone else in the world! She's fresh off an 11-city US 'tour' where she taught hands-on pessary fitting this last year. And she's returning to PelviCon by popular demand!
In this 'sode we discuss her PelviCon topic - overactive bladder (OAB) - and what all of us are getting wrong as we treat patients dealing with this syndrome.
Another big theme of this conversation (and Taryn's sold-out Pre-Con at PelviCon) is how to empower our pregnant patients.
We also discuss where US rehab providers are ahead and behind of the rest of the world, what was most surprising about her first PelviCon experience, and how she has worked to combat the 'heaviness' of our profession.
Don't miss this incredible conversation, and Taryn's extended PelviCon presentation will be a part of the recording!
Taryn Hallam
Founder of the Women's Health Training Associates (WHTA) in Australia, Taryn has trained more rehab providers than anyone else in fitting pessaries. Make sure you check out her information and annual Research Update at https://www.whta-members.com.

Post-Prostatectomy, Peyronie's Disease, and Men's Health: An Interview with Jo Milios
05 Aug 2024
00:49:54
One of the most influential thinkers and voices in men's pelvic health, Jo Milios is sharing her research and treatment techniques at PelviCon this year!
In this fantastic conversation we discuss what it's really like to treat men in the clinic, apprehensions about working in men's pelvic health, collaborating with urologists and surgeons, how to 'pre-hab' for prostatectomy surgery, treating Peyrnonie's disease and much more!
You'll also hear about Jo's research and some of her initiatives that are changing the game in men's health and post-prostatectomy treatment.
Make sure to check out this interview; it's going to whet your appetite for PelviCon 2024!

It's one of the most common business questions we get. I think we often get caught up in what's 'next.' Or the fear of missing out on an opportunity. But it it aligned with your goals for starting a practice?
We've had the opportunity to expand to a second location several times over the history of PelvicSanity, and have turned them down each time. We'll explain why, and the lessons we've learned from helping other practice owners build into a second location.
We'll talk about the pros and cons of a second location (and there are a lot of cons you'll have to navigate).
Sure, it can present exciting opportunities like reaching a new market or providing more room for your clinicians. But let's not ignore the challenges - increased costs, potential dilution of your practice’s culture, and facility issues. We go beyond the surface and consider the motivations that may be driving this desire: perceived opportunities, clinician preference, fear, or maybe even ego.
Lastly, we discuss factors that could influence the success of expansion. We stress the need for a comprehensive plan that takes into account everything from product control to potential increase in rent. But most importantly, we underscore the importance of maintaining practice integrity and family time while attempting to expand your business. Join us for an insightful conversation, as we help you make an informed decision about whether a second location is the right move for your practice.

We've talked about managing flares, but can we prevent them in the first place?
In this 'sode we dive into what actually causes a flare, how to prevent them from happening and make sure your patient is prepared if symptoms do increase.
We also discuss the complicated balancing act between treating so timidly you aren't making a change vs. repeatedly flaring your patients.
In order to prevent flares you'll need to address two things: the irritability of the tissue and the irritability of the patient's nervous system. Effective communication is one of your most important tools in preventing - or managing - symptom flares and building trust with your patient.
Let's work upstream to prevent as many of these flares as possible, equip our patients so they don't come as a surprise and manage flares when they do arise!

In today's 'sode, we addressing timeliness head-on. We'll talk about why punctuality is so important for both ourselves and our patients, the reasons we find ourselves running behind and the path to better time management.
You'll get suggestions on transitioning between patients, dealing with 'chatty Cathys' at the end of your session and how to fix this if it has been a problem for you in the past.
Buckle up and join us as we steer towards a more disciplined and effective way of managing our day in the clinic.

Establishing Effective Boundaries in Clinical Practice
11 Sep 2023
00:23:24
How do we protect ourselves from burnout, provide better care and ensure we stay in our role as the clinician? You guessed it - boundaries.
We take the mystery out of boundaries in this 'sode, discussing how we can set them in our physical space, our emotional connections and with both our verbal and non-verbal communication.
Boundaries aren't just about saying 'no' - they mean you can say 'yes' to the things that are most important!

Have you ever been told that cash-based services limit healthcare access? We're spending this 'sode debunking that myth!
There are many barriers to access. Cost is one of them....but it's only one. Not knowing about our services, distance, setting and wait lists all inhibit access to pelvic health care. We believe that cash-based practices, through active community engagement and education, are making a dramatic improvement in access to care. By offering more choice to patients, everyone wins.

The 'Evil Triplets' of Pelvic Pain: An Interview with Michelle Lyons
28 Aug 2023
00:53:40
You won't want to miss this incredible interview with Michelle Lyons, full of practical takeaways and clinical pearls.
We can't wait for her two talks at PelviCon! The first is going to be about the 'evil triplets' of pelvic pain - interstitial cystitis, endometriosis and pudendal neuralgia.
The next is a topic we could all use more information on, helping our patients live well after a hysterectomy. Pelvic rehab should be the standard of care after a hysterectomy - which means we need to know our stuff!
You'll walk away from this 'sode with a wealth of research-backed practical insights.
And we'll also get to hear about Michelle's work with FIFA, her most recent projects and more about how she's pushing our field forward. Can't wait for you to get to hear this interview (and hear Michelle at PelviCon!).

Ever wondered why some people achieve success while others struggle? Ever fallen into the trap of chasing short-term gains and quick fixes, only to find yourself back at square one?
In this 'sode we discuss a secret to success that is often overlooked - time and longevity. We'll challenge the notion of 'overnight' success and discuss the crucial role of time in achieving and maintaining long-term results.
Success isn't the result of some 'secret' marketing hack or trick. It's cultivating good habits, investing your time wisely, and committing to hard work. Our careers - either as clinicians or business owners - are a marathon, not a sprint.
So if we acknowledge longevity is key to any sort of success, what does that mean? We need to....
Take care of ourselves!
Cultivate good habits
Take the long view of our success.
Hope you enjoy the 'sode! If you did, please take a minute to subscribe and leave a review - they make our day!

The Importance of Quality Continuing Education: An Interview with Nelly Fagani
21 Aug 2023
00:39:08
What makes a great continuing education course? What about a great educator? These are things Nelly Fagani has thought deeply about while creating Pelvic Health Solutions, and we're so excited to welcome her to the podcast!
A private practice owner in Canada, Nelly has multiple clinics and is still a treating physician. This ensures the courses she presents are practical and cater to what pelvic rehab providers actually need. This is in contrast to many larger continuing education companies that are run by businesspeople, not clinicians.
One thing Nelly is passionate about is ensuring trauma-informed care and a biopsychosocial approach is integrated from the very beginning of pelvic health training.
Nelly was a participant at the first-ever PelviCon and is excited to support what we're doing and return as the Title Sponsor for 2023. She believes the connection and excitement of the conference is incredibly important for those in our field. If you're coming to PelviCon, make sure to stop by the Pelvic Health Solutions booth and meet Nelly and her team in person!
Pelvic Health Solutions
Pelvic Health Solutions has provided evidence-based pelvic health teaching since 2010! All courses incorporate biopsychosocial integration and pain biology education into the course material. You can find a full course listing at their website (www.pelvichealthsolutions.ca) and follow them on IG @pelvichealthsolutions

7 Reasons to be On Social Media as a Pelvic Rehab Provider
17 Aug 2023
00:32:25
The single biggest difference in our profession over the last ten years has been the rise of social media and the creators who educate patients there.
It hasn't been physicians who refer more patients. It hasn't been insurance companies who allocate more visits. It's been our colleagues and friends who let potential patients know how we can help.
And yes, there is criticism from 'dinosaurs' who feel we need to cite every study, make every caveat and ensure our posts meet their impossible standards.
But one of the throughlines from our PelviCon speakers is the responsibility we have to educate the general population and help grow our profession. Here are seven reasons to be involved in social media:
It's fun! Whether you're a 'lurker' or creator, being around others who are interested in moving our profession forward is great.
Make connections. You'll meet and connect with others who are passionate about pelvic health and continue to learn.
Improve your teaching skills. Brevity is truly the sole of wit, and the better we get at using the platform to teach the better we are at explaining what we do to our patients and clients.
Learn what you believe (your Clinical Ethos). As you put yourself out there online, you'll learn more about what you believe, what you want to teach and how pelvic rehab should be practiced.
Life-long learning. We've never been in a better time to learn from the leaders in our field online.
Build your value. Your personal brand, followers and content are valuable to potential employers (or yourself, if you choose to create your own practice).
Expanding the field. We all have a responsibility to do what we can to build our field, our profession, and raise awareness of how we can help.
We hope this 'sode has been inspiring to you. Whether you enjoy social media or not, we need to respect it's power and do our best to leverage our platform to help others.

Consolidate Your Schedule and Work the Hours You Want!
01 Aug 2024
00:26:56
One of the reasons many of us started a business was time flexibility. But how many of us are really taking advantage of it?
Maybe you're starting earlier than you want, or working later, because patients 'need' those time slots.
Or you're spending 30 hours a week at the office but only seeing 12 patients.
Or working straight through your lunch.
Or adding patients at times you would rather be home with your family.
We've all been there! But it's ok to be a little selfish in your business!
In this 'sode we go through how to build a schedule that really works for your life. How to prioritize what's most important during this season. How to make your weekly schedule more consistent and organized. And how to make each day more productive.
One of our greatest gifts as a business owner is the ability to change our schedules to suit our lives...and yet many times we're just working the same old hours!
Optimize for what's important, consolidate your work times and embrace the time flexibility of owning a business!

Expanding Our Reach: An Interview with Sara Reardon
14 Aug 2023
00:49:06
Much of the growth of our field in the last decade can be attributed to the information shared on social media. Our guest today, Sara Reardon (The Vagina Whisperer) has been a massive part of that.
It's hard to navigate social media while maintaining our authenticity. But Sara has cracked the code. We discuss how she deals with online trolls, her creative process and how she's been consistent in building her brand.
We also discuss the growth of her brick-and-mortar practice, NOLA pelvic health and put to rest the myth of 'passive income.'
Can't wait for her PelviCon panel discussion, where she'll explore how we Expand Our Reach in different ways. We'll be featuring a diverse panel who have all worked to expand our reach in different ways that we're sure will be inspiring to all.
Settle in, because this episode promises a profound exploration of pelvic health, social media, and everything in between.

Are you investing enough in your health? Are we practicing what we preach to our patients?
We suspect many of us as pelvic rehab providers are neglecting taking care of our own issues. We focus on the day-to-day, but aren't looking at the big picture of our career and the importance in investing in our own health.
In this 'sode, we discuss why it is essential for health professionals to seek help even when they are not actively hurting, but to sustain their physical or mental career. This can help fight burnout, prioritize ourselves, better understand what it's like to be a patient and confront our money mindset issues as a business owner.

Working with your patient can be an emotional rollercoaster. Are you prepared to keep an even keel?
In this 'sode, we discuss how to manage patient progress. It's your responsibility to guide your patient through the highs and lows. This can actually be the biggest challenge when we're dealing with 'highs'!
It's crucial to set realistic expectations, temper the 'highs' and be honest with our patients. If we don't, we set them up for failure. Building trust requires a deeper perspective and maintaining a balanced outlook. That's the job!
Excited for you to dive into this 'sode and learn more about how to manage expectations and not get too high with your patient's wins.
Make sure to subscribe, and would love if you could leave a review to let us know how you enjoyed the 'sode and the podcast if it's been helpful to you!

SUI is a Symptom, Not a Diagnosis: An Interview with Taryn Hallam
31 Jul 2023
01:07:57
Ready to change the way you think of stress urinary incontinence and prolapse? This can't-miss episode with Dr. Taryn Hallam is going to challenge your preconceptions and give a whole new perspective on treatment.
Her unique background starts with working closely with surgeons and physicians as she conducted research early in her career. It gave her a life-long obsession with evaluating research and translating it into practical applications for her colleagues.
She's been ahead of the curve her entire career when it comes to pessary fitting and treating prolapse as well.
You know we're going to nerd out as well on the anatomy, physiology and fascial connections!
We also introduce Taryn's topics for PelviCon 2023 - I can't wait for you to hear her full presentations on each of these topics. Enjoy the conversation (and please feel free to leave a review - it means a ton to Taryn and to us!).

What if we didn't have to race against the clock to 'fix' a patient in set number of visits? Or feel pressure to get them out of our office as soon as possible?
Ultimately, this pressure we feel to discharge as soon as possible comes from insurance companies. We're taught to 'work ourselves out of a job.' To make sure what we're doing is 'skilled' enough. To need to show measurable improvements at each visit. To have to justify our care. And to fit our treatments within their allotted number of insurance visits - which is the same number for a sprained ankle and a 30-year history of pelvic pain!
This attitude has trickled into our PT schools, our 'productivity' standards in insurance-based practices, and has become the norm in our field.
But why?
What if instead of rushing to get someone out of the door, we acknowledge it takes time to provide meaninful, life-long change?
We believe this attitude can help prevent burnout, reduce anxiety, and open up opportunities to benefit our patients in ways we've never explored.
So....do you just need more time?

Does the thought of interrupting your patient make you feel deeply uncomfortable?
As a field we pride ourselves on allowing our patients to tell their full story. To ensuring they feel heard. And that's critically important.
But....there's a need for us, as providers, to reclaim control of the conversation, finding the balance between deeply understanding patient narratives and being efficient in diagnosis.
We discuss the delicate art of interrupting; it's not simply about cutting them off, but doing so tactfully with the confidence of a clinician and the empathy of a caregiver.
We explore how the phrase "push pause" can become a powerful tool in our hands during consultations.
Hopefully after this 'sode you'll feel more comfortable with interrupting your patient - when necessary - and have some practical tools to do it well.
So buckle up, as we navigate through these murky waters, hoping to emerge as better providers and better listeners.

Hard to believe we're halfway through 2023! But if we want things to be different when the new year rolls around, it's a perfect time for a 'July Reboot.'
This is something we do in our mentorship programs where we zoom out, evaluate how the year is going and refocus on the most important things for the rest of the year.
Whether you're an entrepreneur or working for someone else, this is a perfect excuse to see if you're on track to hit your goals!
So take a look at your overall goals for 2023. How are they going? Anything you need to focus on? Anything you need to abandon?
What about your financial progress? Are you on pace to end the year with the numbers you want to hit?
How about your lifestyle? How's work-life balance and your schedule? Are you taking care of yourself? We've been failing - badly! - in our 'Wellness' category so far this year.
What about your clinical growth? Have you mapped out courses to take (either in-person or online)?
Wherever you're at, this is a great time to refocus on the big picture and make sure to accomplish your biggest goals of 2023!

What vacation are you putting off? Whether it's a week-long overseas trip or a long weekend getaway....here's the permission (that you absolutely don't need) to just take it!
Burnout is a huge problem in our pelvic rehab community. And often we're playing 'catch-up', trying to deal with issues after they've come up. But by being proactive we can avoid ever getting to that point!
We can be dissuaded from taking time off by our employer and their policies. By our own sense of guilt in leaving our patients. By the pressure of building our own business.
But ultimately we need to be taking care of ourselves and enjoying our own journey if we're going to show up the best for our patients.
Like most things, taking time off starts with knowing yourself and what will refill your cup. Do you need lengthy time away, or would you be better off with more frequent 3-day weekends? Do you like a vacation where you relax by a beach or where you're active and learning?
Whatever it is, here's your encouragement to plan the rest of your year around your vacations and time off, and enjoy!
Clinical Courses
All of the Rising clinical courses are designed to challenge the way you think and make you more confident in your clinical practice.

Treating endo is a complicated process. We can address many of the symptoms and quarterback our patient's care. But we can't address the underlying disease process, hormones, or potential complications.
So our 'A Missing Piece' for endo is working closely with a true endo specialist.
If you aren't referring to one, you can look in your area at www.iCareBetter.com. Make sure you know someone you can send your endo - or suspected endo - patients to who will provide world-class care.
Check out the full sode!

This is far more common than most people realize. In a study we conducted at PelvicSanity and published at IPPS, we found 69% of patients who came in for other symptoms (pelvic pain, prolapse, incontinence, etc.) had constipation as well.
Our missing piece for constipation? Bringing it back to the basics.
Often we make this more complicated than it needs to be. We suggest major dietary changes to our patients (which are hard to comply with). We work on changing posture. We jump to techniques like rectal balloon treatment. All of which are good and helpful, but often overlook things that get us the most 'bang for our buck.'
So bring it back to basics:
Eat breakfast (something you can chew)
Water intake
Magnesium
Walking and movement, especially in the morning
Squatty potty
If a patient buys in and does these things, it's almost impossible not to see some changes in symptoms. And then we can move on to more advanced techniques or bigger lifestyle changes if we need.
So glad you're enjoying the 'A Missing Piece' series - would love if you could take a moment and leave a review to help others find this podcast!

A lot of times with male pelvic pain - particularly pain in the testicals, scrotum, or penile pain - we'll jump right to breathing and/or treating the pelvic floor.
But a missing piece for these patients is the spermatic cord.
Running along the inguinal canal, the spermatic cord carries nerves and blood vessels integral to the system. Often this area is tender, inflamed or tight when dealing with male pelvic pain.
This is definitely something we're assessing and treating within the first few visits with those dealing with penile, testicular, or scrotal pain.
So glad you're enjoying the 'A Missing Piece' series - would love if you could take a moment and leave a review to help others find this podcast!

Why 86% of Business Owners Aren't Meeting Their Financial Goals
08 Jun 2023
00:36:59
In a recent survey we conducted, almost 9 in 10 business owners said they weren't hitting their financials goals or needs with the business.
In fact - thanks so much to nearly 200 of you who filled it out! - we found the following:
86.4% of business owners aren't meeting their financial goals
85% believe they could have a larger impact
69% aren't comfortable taking a vacation
67% don't have time for physical or emotional self-care
66% aren't working the days and times they want
These are a recipe for entrepreneurial burnout. And when we aren't doing well ourselves, we can't be 100% for our patients.
The three main areas we need in order to be successful - Sales & Marketing, Business Systems, and Clinical Excellence - generally aren't taught.
And that's why we're so excited to bring you the Business Accelerator program (www.pelvicptrising.com/accelerator).

We're told (ironically, often in paid ads!) paid advertising is the 'magic bullet' to getting the phone to ring in our clinics. But is that true?
In this 'sode we dive into the challenges with IG and FB ads. The fundamental problem? No one is going on social media hoping to be hit with an ad to fix their incontinence!
And especially for a high-ticket item like a ~$200 initial evaluation.
So that leads to two options for ads. One is the 'Group-On' model, where you offer an absurdly low initial evaluation price (think ~$40) and then try to 'upsell' when they get into your clinic. For most clinicians this feels salesy, changes your business model, brings in the wrong type of clients, and certainly doesn't work if you have staff.
The other option is the 'Funnel Method.' You get them to sign up for a free PDF. Then you send a boatload of marketing emails in a sequence, trying to cultivate them, get them on a discover call, have them buy a $12 e-book, and finally ask them to come in for an evaluation.
It's really hard to make either of these strategies work!
And we often forget the opportunity cost - what could we have done with the same budget and effort in another area of marketing? Usually the answer is we could have been a lot more effective and built a long-lasting marketing opportunity instead of relying on paid ads.

What's something we overlook or miss when it comes to treating tailbone pain?
Remember that tailbone pain is a non-specific diagnosis. It's just as description of symptoms!
So it's up to us to do a true differential diagnosis and understand the 'why' of what is going on.
But something I think we miss is treating rectally in quadruped.
Why quadruped? Well, it's the best position - in my opinion - to approximate the hip flexion and position where most patients experience their tailbone pain. It gives us a lot of control over their positioning in non-weight bearing position.
Also, there are some major limitations with treating rectally in side-lying and supine that we get into within this 'sode.
If you want to learn more about rectal treatment - for all different diagnoses - check out the Rectal Evaluation and Treatment course as well! (www.pelvicptrising.com/rectal).

The 7 Metrics You Need to be Tracking In Your Business
01 Jun 2023
00:22:06
How can we keep track of all the things in our business that are crucial....without being overwhelmed?
That's the challenge. And too often, it's easier to just bury our head in the sand instead of routinely checking in on the business.
The things you track need to be both important and actionable. In this 'sode, we give you our top 7 things to track.
How many of them do you know right now? Reach out and tell us!

What's something we often overlook or miss when it comes to vulvodynia?
Well, first it's important to recognize vulvodynia is just as non-specific as 'low back pain.' It literally just means 'pain in the vulva.'
We could have gone a few different ways with a missing piece - rectal treatment, looking at the urachus and belly button, lumbar referral patterns, hip referrals, or more. It's a complex diagnosis.
But a missing piece for vulvodynia is evaluation and treatment of the perineal fascia.
With the presentation of vulvodynia, it's almost impossible for the perineal fascia to not be involved. Because of this, it's definitely an area we should be evaluating and treating early in our treatment progression with these patients.

Many of us start our own practice - at least in part - to treat the way we believe.
But are we actually practicing what we preach?
Getting clinical buy-in from our patients is incredibly important but often overlooked. Most business coaches won't even mention the clinical side of the practice.
But for us, clinical excellence and buy-in is one of the three pillars of a thriving business (along with Marketing & Sales and Business Systems). If you have just one of these, your business will struggle. If you have two, you'll survive.
But if we get all three of them working at the same time? The sky is the limit for your business!

What's something that's misunderstood or overlooked when treating complex patients with pudendal neuralgia?
This is often one of the most intimidating diagnoses we work with.
It's easy to hyperfocus on the path of the pudendal nerve, but a missing piece is actually the posterior cutaneous femoral nerve.
In fact, it's almost impossible for 'pudendal neuralgia' to only involve the pudendal nerve! This is why nerve blocks often don't address all symptoms or symptoms spread beyond the immediate pathway of the pudendal.

But in this 'sode we give you some questions to be asking to make sure you find the person and program that's right for you to expedite your growth and help you enjoy the process along the way!

Starting a mobile practice can be an attractive option. Many new business owners use this as a side hustle as they continue to work, or build a 'concierge' practice as they grow.
In this 'sode (prompted by a listener question!) we dive into the Pros and Cons of a Mobile practice.
Many of our mentees in the Rising Family have started this way - many have switched over to a brick & mortar practice, while others are thriving in the mobile model.
We'll talk about what you should do as you start, the advantages of a mobile practice and why many practitioners transition away from mobile clients as they grow.

For interstitial cystitis, a common 'missing piece' is neural tension of the sciatic nerve.
It's a testament to how difficult IC is to treat we considered a few other 'missing pieces.' We thought about highlighting the 'IC Diet', superficial pelvic floor muscles, constipation, urachus, inner thighs, calves or ischiorectal fascia.
But we kept coming back to the sciatic nerve and the major role it plays in urinary urgency, frequency and/ or interstitial cystitis.
In this 'sode we discuss the evaluation and treatment of neural tension and how it can transform how you treat patients with IC and urinary issues.
If you enjoy, please take a moment to rate and review the podcast - we read each and every one!
"A Missing Piece" Series
In this series, we're taking a single aspect of a condition or symptom we feel is often overlooked, dismissed or 'just checked'. If you're already doing this consistently, then great! If you're doing it periodically, it might be something to prioritize higher. And if you're not doing it at all, it's another tool in your toolbox.

We're taking an honest look at the pros and cons of working in a cash practice.
As most of you know, PelvicSanity is a cash practice and we've been working without interacting with insurance companies for more than 7 years.
But that might not be the right decision for everyone. So we want to lay out the pros and cons. Whether you're a 'wannabe' considering your options or an already established business wanting to make sure you got it right, this should help!
Clinical - Cash
Cash practice gets insurance completely out of the picture. Hour-long (or two-hour) treatment sessions, wellness, working with patients for a longer plan of care - as long as you and the patient believe it's worthwhile, you can do what you clinically believe!
Financial - Cash
In terms of profit margin and the financial metrics, a cash practice wins. You have control over your profit margin, instead of insurance capping reimbursement. There are no cash flow issues.
Marketing & Sales - Insurance
This is always the biggest challenge for cash-based practices. Being 'in network' literally means you're part of a referral network. You might still have to do some work, but you should have a much easier time in an insurance practice of getting patients to call and schedule. Your ability to do this in a cash practice is vital for success.
Ability to Grow - Tie
Both types of practices can grow, and have different issues. An insurance-based practice often has the patient volume to grow, but with low profit margins it can be difficult to hire and expand while still paying yourself. A cash practice can expand with good profit margins, but the marketing and sales need to be on point.
Lifestyle - Cash
With a cash practice you can work fewer hours. You don't have insurance BS. You don't have a biller. And you can treat how you want.

When it comes to diastasis recti, a missing piece is often the back.
We're often focused on the front....because, well, that's where the diastasis is! We'll engage the transversus abdominus and strengthen the core muscles.
Many times we'll focus on the front until and unless things aren't going well, before finally looking for other contributing factors.
But the diastasis is often a result of a problem in the system, and originating in the back. We can even ask patients to do things (ie: stack the ribcage over the pelvis) they may lack the ability to do!
At the initial evaluation we always want to check the obliques, paraspinal muscles and fascia of the back. Often we'll focus our initial work here and see what a difference it makes prior to highly focusing on strengthening the abdominal muscles.
In this 'sode we discuss the order of operations, why we always look at the back at the initial evaluation, and this missing piece for treating diastasis recti.

How can we stop driving ourselves crazy by comparing to our competitors? Worrying about what they are doing? Feeling like they are 'taking our patients?'
It's not easy. We're competitive. We care. But ultimately we need to cultivate an abundance mindset or drive ourselves crazy with comparison.
Here are five ideas that might help when it comes to cultivating an abundance mindset:
Do the math! There are so many more people with pelvic health issues than we'll ever be able to see. Even in a small town, if we get even 1% of those who could use our help in the door, we'll have a waitlist a mile long.
Recognize patients are smart and deserve choices. It's not a bad thing they can decide who they want to see.
Being a neurotic mess isn't fun. That's the other side of the coin, where you're constantly comparing and worried about others. So for your own sanity, an abundance mindset is crucial.
There's a place for competition. We can use it as inspiration and fuel as we grow and provide better care. What does it say if you believe you can only be successful if you're the only option in town?
This is the future of pelvic health. We're going to continue to grow as a specialty. There will be options for patients. We'll have smaller niches we occupy. And that can all be good - for us and patients!
Ultimately, we want you feeling confident in your practice and being more authentically you in your business or clinical practice.

One thing we often miss when treating prolapse is a functional/standing assessment.
If an orthopedic patient came in complaining of pain with walking and running, would we do our entire examination with them sitting or laying down? Absolutely not!
And yet, isn't that exactly what we're doing for our patients with prolapse if we aren't doing a standing assessment?
It's entirely possible a patient with prolapse will never be evaluated - by their OB or their pelvic rehab provider - in the position where they experience their symptoms.
In this 'sode we talk about the importance of a standing assessment, reasons you might be (justifiably!) hesitant about performing one, and how to implement for your patients.
Are you routinely doing standing assessments? Or is there something holding you back? Reach out and let us know!
