Here we go again! This is the most frustrating topic we talk about, and we keep doing it because every single woman needs to fully understand how insurance is out to make money, and not help you.

You've seen the hyrox poop mess in the news, and we just so happened to do a fecal incontinence episode recently! We felt like we needed to continue the conversation, especially with how this problem plays into sport and competition. Edited to add: this athlete issued a formal apology after we recorded this episode, and also decided to retroactively withdraw from the race and forfeit the points earned.

Pelvic PT and fitness are similar in that if we don't see you that often, you won't get the results you are looking for. Then, either service that you choose to pay for can feel like a waste. Instead of focusing on the time and money spent initially, we encourage moms to look at the big picture of how to best get the results they are looking for, quicker.

No matter if you've been through potty training before or are just starting to think about it, it can really be a wild ride. It's crazy how every child is usually so different, so having trained 5 children between us, we thought it could be helpful to share our experiences. If you are feeling pressure to start, have no idea if your child is ready, or just want to hear about how it went for us, listen up!

Hovering over a toilet is a skill most females acquire at some point in life, but it's not one to brag about! Even if you can hover, it doesn't mean you should. We know what you are thinking - but what if you are in a public restroom... what if you are in a rush... what if you just have to pee real quick? None of those arguments are reasons to hover. In this episode, you'll learn all about why it's a must to sit when you use the bathroom - every time!

You might know that painful sex is something that is common (but not normal) for women to experience, but did you know that how you move during the day can contribute to it? How you exercise, how you position your body (your posture tendencies) and how you hold your kids can really be contributing factors to painful sex. If this is a problem you struggle with, listen up!

You just can't trust a fart - especially when you are postpartum, have experienced a 3rd or 4th degree tear, and haven't done any rehab for your pelvic floor. If you have experienced any form of fecal incontinence (there are a few), have questions about it, and maybe have been just too embarrassed to ask - we've got you!

With the popularity of GLP-1s among women recently, it is certainly a strange time to be in a female health and wellness profession. While we truly support women feeling good in their bodies and having goals, we cannot leave out the longer term negative affects that put our independence and overall well being at risk now and well into the future. Just some things to make sure you consider when deciding if a GLP-1 is right for you!

We both have this conversation with patients and clients so often that we are very overdue on making an episode about it! Physical Therapists all go to PT school and have the same extensive orthopedic training. The difference with a Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist, is that they completed additional, and very in depth training, to specialize in all things related to the pelvis and women's health. Therefore, it doesn't make any sense for women in their child bearing years to see a traditional orthopedic PT for their hip pain, back pain, etc - when a Pelvic Floor PT is...

The keyboard warriors have been out in full effect lately - posting anonymously and voicing their opinions of how small businesses choose to operate. In today's episode, we bring to attention the fact that communities need small businesses to thrive, and how easily social media comments can negatively influence how the pubic views a local business.

This is such a common conversation! Both of us often see patients and clients who are dealing with an injury, and also want to keep up with their fitness at the same time, and are unsure how to proceed. It can be scary, because it feels like rest is the safest thing to do. However, there is so much you can do to work on your rehab, work around the injury, and of course go harder with other body parts that shouldn't have to suffer from lack of training in the mean time!

This week we are bringing back part 2 of our guest episode series with local water safety expert Jenna Porcelli! In this episode Jenna explains exactly what ISR is, why the method caters to the way children learn best, and what the commitment looks like for parents. Also, since the time of this recording ISR changed from 5 days to 4!

Krista and Jenn both have children who are ISR grads, and we also both have experience with traditional swim lessons. If you aren't sure where to start with swim lessons for your child, but you know you need to...

It's that time of year again and we feel strongly about the need to reshare two episodes from our first ever guest on the Moms In Motion Podcast, Jenna Porcelli!

'I have to ask my husband' is a response to a provider that unfortunately often leads to a patient/client not getting the care they desperately need. Involving a partner in health and financial decisions isn't the issue - we believe partners should always work as a team. The problem is when the partner wasn't involved from the beginning, and may not even know what issues have even come up, and therefore 9/10 times won't be on board with the solution. If this communication is something you struggle with, or are afraid to even bring up the care you need...

If you've never been a business owner, or have never helped run a business, you may not have any idea what costs actually look like. Pricing of services have a lot to do with this, so if you want quality service, you might be interested in what goes into determining the costs for these services. Listen to today's episode to find out the many hidden costs of running businesses that truly want to serve women at the highest level possible.

You might be surprised to hear that 1/10 women are diagnosed with endometriosis, but Dr. Jenn believes that it is much higher than that because it takes most women 10 years to get a diagnosis. If your symptoms are making you wonder if you have endometriosis, and especially if your symptoms have been brushed off in the past, you need to get a second opinion and see an endo specialist and not just any OBGYN!

When you need help with something specific and seek the help of a provider, you need to actually show up for the care in order to get the results you want. Sounds like a no brainer, right? You may be surprised to find out that often in our line of work, and in talking to other providers we refer to, it happens all too often that clients/patients regularly seek out our services, and then don’t follow through with the plan required for the outcome they need! In today’s episode, we are talking about how commitment needs to c...

Perimenopause is a hot topic, and it seems like everyone thinks HRT will solve all their problems and symptoms. While HRT might help some women tremendously, we really need to look at the whole picture. Habits, postures, injuries, your fitness foundation (or lack of) and so many other factors come into play. It's critical that women check all the boxes going into perimenopause, and see the right professionals for issues, so you have the best chances of feeling good through these years.
