Pelvic Floor, Core & More with THE BALANCED MOMTALITY | Exercise Safely During Pregnancy and Postpartum, Heal Pelvic Floor Leaking, Prolapse and Pain, Balance Self Care for Moms

Dr. Desiree Cassell | Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist, Women’s Health Specialist, Strong and Fit Momma

Women’s Health & Wellness* Prenatal Fitness *Postpartum Recovery *Pelvic Floor Exercises *Holistic Health *Whole Body Healing Are you a busy pregnant or postpartum (once postpartum always postpartum) mom that just wants to feel strong and healthy without the stress of having to revolve your life around your diet and exercise? Wanting functional and practical strategies to get in safe and effective exercises without fear of pain, prolapse or peeing your pants? All during your normal daily routines? Are you wanting to stay active and comfortable during your pregnancy, and avoid many of the common aches and pains? While also prepping and optimizing your mind and body for a beautiful birthing experience? Ready to feel confident navigating postpartum recovery, being in-tune to your body, it’s boundaries to activity and avoiding common issues like diastasis recti (DRA), prolapse, and urinary incontinence (leaking)? Hey Momma! I’m Dr. Desiree Cassell, a Doctor of Physical Therapy that specializes in Women’s Health aka Pelvic Floor, a wife, mom of 3, foodie and lover of all things movement and mindfulness (bonus if it’s outdoors)! I can’t tell you how excited I am that you are here checking out The Balanced Momtality Women’s Health and Wellness Podcast! During my first pregnancy I experienced all the typical issues like DRA, urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and even hemorrhoids 😳. Only to be told “welcome to #momlife” by society and other moms in my life. So, like you, I accepted it as “normal”. Then, while working for my Doctor of Physical Therapy, I got pregnant with my second (still dealing with all the same issues and more 6 yrs later) and decided to put my new found knowledge to the test. YOU GUYS I was able to not only stop my urinary incontinence and prolapse from getting worse, I STOPPED LEAKING AND FEELING SYMPTOMS ALL TOGETHER! This is when my passion for educating, empowering and supporting other women and moms was born. I just knew I had to shout it from the rooftops that all those “common” symptoms ARE NOT NORMAL! You do not have to suffer and there IS HELP! Unfortunately, I brought all these issues up to my providers during my first pregnancy, only to be brushed off and told to do kegels and exercise. With that advice, I kegeld my life away and took a Pilates class postpartum that actually turned my DRA into an umbilical hernia and caused pain with intercourse because kegels were actually the opposite of what my pelvic floor needed (more on that inside the podcast 😉). Inside this podcast you will learn all about the pelvic floor and core system, common dysfunctions within the system during pregnancy and postpartum (and in general), how to connect and be aware of your body’s limits and how to SAFELY push those limits so you can be the strong, confident, and happy balanced momma you and your family deserve! Now let’s get you out of those pads and back to jumping on the trampoline with your kids and enjoying movement again! Put those airpods in, grab your water, roll out your mat and let’s connect!

(Part 1)

Hey Girl!

The Olympics were just a few weeks ago, where we got to witness hundreds of amazing elite athletes perform and show off their skills to the World. Have you ever wondered what is so different between the fueling of an elite athlete like an Olympian vs your average mom or woman that just wants to stay strong and active? Well I have! So I decided to invite my good friend and fellow Lobo Nutritionist and Elite Sports Dietitian, Brooke Wyatt to chat with us today on the show!

Brooke Wyatt, MS, RDN, CSSD, is a registered dietitian and board-certified sports nutrition specialist with extensive experience in professional sports. Throughout her career, she has dedicated herself to enhancing the performance and recovery of elite athletes and teams.

She holds a Master of Science in Nutritional Sciences from Cal State Long Beach and a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition & Dietetics from the University of New Mexico, where she also competed as a Division 1 soccer athlete.

This week we will be diving into what it was like to be at the 2024 Paris Olympics, some differences and similarities about what nutrition and fueling looks like for the elite athletes vs the average strong mom, nutrition tips to optimize your fueling and she breaks down some common myths about nutrition and performance fueling in general! So much good stuff packed into this convo, so much so we had to break it down into 2 parts, so make sure you stay tuned next week for Part 2!

Are You Pregnant? Early Postpartum? Maybe even decades postpartum? Well guess what Momma... once postpartum ALWAYS postpartum. And hey, maybe you're not a mom and you don’t plan to be. Well I promise you will want to stick around because EVERYONE has a pelvic floor, and I promise you will want to know the information inside this podcast. We’re going to learn how to strengthen and connect to the pelvic floor and core so that you can get rid of those pesky pee leaks, pelvic pressure or prolapse, pain with intercourse, Diastasis recti, pelvic organ prolapse, pelvic pain, back pain, hip pain and even neck pain and foot pain. It’s ALL connected, and with my whole body holistic approach, I promise that you will learn things in this episode that you didn't know before.

In today’s episode we’re diving into my own personal journey with urinary incontinence, prolapse and pain that started during my first pregnancy at 19 and, unfortunately, I just accepted it as “normal” and part of motherhood. Until I went through PT school and learned there was a better way and that in fact, those symptoms are COMMON but NOT NORMAL. I decided to put my new found knowledge to the test while I was pregnant with my second child and was not only able to stop my urinary incontinence (leaking) and prolapse from getting worse, I was able to heal and stop it ALL TOGETHER WHILE PREGNANT! And my subsequent births were night and day in terms of delivery time, pushing time, tearing and how available and emotionally present I was during those experiences. This is when I knew I HAD to share this information with the world so that other women like you, could understand and know that while these symptoms are common, they are not normal, and most importantly YOU DO NOT HAVE TO SUFFER! There is help and resources out there!

Inside this episode you will learn the first steps you must take to begin to heal your pelvic floor and core, no matter how long ago you had that baby or have been dealing with symptoms. So check it out and if you have any questions or would like to know more come hang out with me and other amazing women in my facebook group The Balanced Momtality Wellness and Support. I know you're busy momma so let's dive in!

Hey Love!

Are you feeling like no matter how much you want to take the right steps to heal your pelvic floor or get on a good fitness routine, you just can’t seem to show up for it? Everything else getting in the way or feeling like you don’t have enough time? Overwhelmed with all the things you need and also want to do? Maybe you feel guilty about taking that time to work on yourself? Or maybe you actually are not sure how or what you should be prioritizing in your healing? Mom life can be so stressful and all of these statements might be your reality, but they don’t have to be!

I have been there momma. I truly have felt truth behind all of the statements above, and it can feel so overwhelming and out of our control, right? But, what if I told you that you have way more control than you are giving yourself credit for, and maybe, just maybe, you are the one contributing to these thoughts and making them your reality? Inside today’s episode we have a heart to heart where I challenge you to think introspectively and honestly about what is truly holding you back. You are the only one that has control over what you do, how you feel and what you decide to put your energy into. So it is time to look deep within ourselves and be honest with what we have been doing to contribute to some of these fears and feelings and then re-write our narrative! You deserve to feel strong, confident and peaceful and doing all the self care is only a small piece of the puzzle. You also need to change the inner workings of your brain and challenge your thoughts and feelings. Find more time in your day, get rid of the guilt and stop letting overwhelm lead to exhaustion and stress. It is time to heal your pelvic floor, core, body, mind and spirit! This is the mentality piece of The Balanced Momtality, I hope you enjoy it!

As always, if you are experiencing any pelvic floor/women's health issue like urinary incontinence/leaking, pelvic pain, pain with sex, urgency, heaviness/prolapse or any other back/hip/joint pain let's get you booked for a virtual coaching session or in person physical therapy session for a more individualized plan and one-on-one instructions so you can feel confident in your body and start healing today!!

Hey momma!

I know it can be so confusing trying to figure out what is recommended and what is safe when it comes to Fitness and Exercise during pregnancy. You want to stay active so you can be strong and comfortable throughout the pregnancy and delivery, but you want to make sure that you are not going to harm yourself, your baby or put your body at risk for future issues like diastasis recti, urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, back pain, pelvic pain, sciatica or even hemorrhoids. Unfortunately, during my first pregnancy I got ALL of the above because all I did was walk. I didn’t want to do too much and hurt myself or the baby and I didn’t know any better. Unfortunately, despite avoiding higher activity from fear of injury, I caused my pain and dysfunction by NOT exercising more. With my following pregnancies I was able to incorporate a few different types of movement and exercise into my routine and it kept my pain away and kept me active hiking 4 mi hikes up into 38+ weeks! We know movement and activity is good for both mom and baby, but what types of exercise is best? Inside today’s episode we will dive into four different types of prenatal exercises/activities that you should be doing on some level for an optimal pregnancy and delivery experience! Keeping you strong and comfortable so you can keep up with all the things as a busy, active momma!

So fill up your water, roll out your mat, and let’s connect!

Hey Momma!

Is your fear stopping you from working out or exercising while you're pregnant or postpartum? Are you wanting to maintain strength or stay healthy, but afraid that you may cause an injury or aggravate symptoms or worse harm your baby? You are not alone! So many mommas tell me that they want to be active and stay strong and healthy throughout pregnancy and postpartum, but because of social media and all the conflicting information out there, they feel stuck and don’t know what level of exercise or activity is safe or good for them. This keeps many women stuck and avoiding many types of exercise, when in fact they need to gain strength to help them manage and resolve their aches and pains and provide stability in their core. A strong core is crucial during these phases of life, because it is at such a disadvantage as the abdominals are being stretched, but core strengthening can and should be done in a safe and controlled way. Inside today’s episode I discuss how you can learn and listen to your body’s boundaries so you can be aware what movement’s are safe and “good” for your body’s ability and what movements or exercises may be too intense and putting you at risk for causing other issues like diastasis recti (DRA), urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse (POP), hernias, hemorrhoids and prolapsed discs. Movement is medicine and it’s important to stay active throughout all phases of our lives, especially during pregnancy and postpartum. So listen to today’s episode so you can feel confident as you navigate activity and don’t let fear keep you from staying strong and active!

Hey Momma,

Have you been dealing with pain since you had your baby? Maybe its pelvic pain, back pain, c-section scar pain, hip pain, pain with sex or maybe even just a lot of postpartum anxiety or depression. Did your birthing experience not go as planned? Or is your birth story something you don't like to think about? Even if our birth goes "smoothly" it can still feel traumatizing, especially to the body. Our body holds memory and when it comes to trauma, it can hold onto it for years without us even knowing. So many times women power through labor and dive straight into motherhood, unaware of the trauma they are ignoring and subsequently, storing inside their body. I have worked with so many women in the postpartum fourth trimester period who feel "ok", but as I begin to work on their tissues, especially in the pelvic floor and scar tissue, they begin to feel A TON of uncomfortable emotions, and I can feel the block. And as we work through their story I can physically feel the tension and pain in their body melt away. It is SO powerful to begin healing and working through the trauma in our lives and birth is no exception.

Inside this week's episode I dive into how trauma is held in the body and what it looks like when it starts to surface and how to work through that so that you can FULLY heal and not end up with debilitating pain or illness 10+ yrs down the road because you didn't process through that experience. Pregnancy is alot on the body and birth is the final push of that long 10 month marathon, no matter how that baby arrived to you earth-side you should feel PROUD and STRONG as you navigate your postpartum journey, not overwhelmed, ashamed and defeated. Which, unfortunately is the story I hear from so many women. So do yourself a favor, listen to this entire episode and face the uncomfortable so you can heal the root of your pain!

Hey Friend,

Have you ever wondered if there is anything you are doing that may be contributing to, or maybe even causing your pelvic floor symptoms?!? As we move throughout our lives we tend to pick up routines and habits, many of which might not be the best for our wellbeing. After working with thousands of women, I have noticed a few habits in particular that are extremely detrimental to your pelvic floor. Many of us do these things every day and even with my frequent coaching and awareness on this topic and all things pelvic health, I still find myself reverting back to some old habits from time to time, especially under stress. Improving these habits can not only reduce symptoms of urinary incontinence, urinary urgency, pelvic pain, pelvic pressure/prolapse, pain with intercourse or even constipation, but help resolve them all together. It’s always so empowering to become aware of your habits and routines and see if they align with your goals and what you are trying to achieve. So if you are curious if there is something you are subconsciously (or consciously) doing that is contributing to, or causing your symptoms make sure to listen to today's episode and share so we can ALL be aware!

Go fill up your water, roll out your mat and let’s connect!

Are you suffering from pelvic pain?! This is a general term as pelvic pain can look like many things! You may be experiencing butt pain, pain with sitting, tailbone pain (coccydynia), pubic symphysis pain, SIJ pain, pain with intercourse (dyspareunia), vaginal pain, vulvodynia or vestibulodynia or even low back or hip pain stemming from the pelvic floor. Unfortunately, pelvic pain is multifactorial and multi-system as you will learn inside this week's episode. Pelvic pain can be such a pain in the butt (pun intended)! It is crucial to begin to identify what systems are playing a role in your pelvic pain to begin restoring and healing your pain at the root of the problem. Many women experience one or more of these different types of pain at some point in her life. Majority being during pregnancy or postpartum or if they have other conditions such as endometriosis or PCOS or Interstitial cystitis (IC). Sometimes this type of pain can also present more like a UTI with burning or urinary urgency and difficulty fully emptying, which can be so frustrating. Even if you have never experienced pelvic pain before, this episode is going to be full of information so you can help keep the different aspects of your life and body in balance and avoid ever having to suffer with pelvic pain. Especially if you are suffering from any of the above types of pelvic pain and are frustrated chasing the pain cycle and wondering what the heck is going on, stay tuned for this week's episode where we dive into many of the most common types of pelvic pain and what may be contributing to them from a holistic, whole body perspective. Also make sure to stay tuned next week for more solutions and tips/tricks to begin healing your pelvic pain ASAP!

Hey Momma!

You have made it to the third trimester and hopefully you caught Part 1 of this Epsiode last week and have been staying active and comfortable up to this point by listening to the first and second trimester episodes. This trimester is when things can become increasingly uncomfortable and achey as belly and baby grow. You are probably feeling anxious and excited about labor being just around the corner, but afraid as birth can come with so many unknowns. You want to stay comfortable in this last trimester but also prepare your mind and body for birth so you can have an optimal birthing experience and recover well postpartum. Especially if you are battling many of the common pregnancy aches and pains: SIJ pain, round ligament pain, sciatica, SPD (pubic bone pain), prolapse and even hemorrhoids, then this episode is for you!

Inside this week's episode (Part 2 of 2) I am giving you more tips and tricks for releasing tightness in your pelvic floor and performing perineal massage to assist the relaxation and opening of your pelvic girdle to prepare for an easier vaginal birth and less risk of tearing and complications. The tips inside this episode will help you feel more confident as you get towards the big Birth Day and help you feel comfortable while you wait for baby, especially if you are having pelvic pain.

As always, if you are experiencing any pelvic floor/women's health issue like urinary incontinence/leaking, pelvic pain, pain with sex, urgency, heaviness/prolapse or any other back/hip/joint pain let's get you booked for a virtual coaching session or in person physical therapy session for a more individualized plan and one-on-one instructions so you can feel confident in your body and start healing today!!
