Yeah well, I got the covid vaccine...

...naturally, my immune system is prepared now. 👍

Did you know it’s never too late to start pelvic floor PT? Whether your baby is a newborn or 50+ years old, you can still benefit! #TipTuesday

Peeing a little when you laugh too hard, cough, or sneeze? Avoid squeezing your butt and legs together, and do a kegel instead to help shut off that valve! 🌬#TipTuesday

@DrBrittV Sending you all the best vibes. ❤️ I felt that when my 93 and 95 year old grandparents were in the hospital last March.

Internal treatment is not the only way to help with pelvic pain! There are always other ways to treat, and then maybe the internal treatment will be easier later. You shouldn’t have pain after every PT session. We want you to feel better and have less pain! #TipTuesday #endrant

Posture is so important for many vital body functions, but did you know that up right “military” posture 24/7 isn’t optimal? Variance is key! If you’re stuck sitting at your desk all day, try to get up 2-5min/hr, walk around,&move those muscles! 🚶‍♀️🚶🏾🚶🏻‍♂️ #TipTuesday

A weak 🍑 can contribute to low back pain, hip pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, & even knee pain! Squats, lunges, & bridges are some of my fave glut exercises to target both glut max (the main muscle that you see) & glut med (the sides to balance the pelvis). #TipTuesday

[Dr. Liana Merrick, PT, DPT, WCS @LianaMerrickDPT]

Sometimes your pelvic floor muscles actually need to learn how to relax fully to help w/ leakage! If you’re always getting the urge to go, the muscles can get too tired to hold on anymore, leading to urge incontinence (esp when you’re @ the toilet pulling your 👖down!)#TipTuesday

[Dr. Liana Merrick, PT, DPT, WCS @LianaMerrickDPT]

Did you know that your pelvic floor muscles are instrumental in allowing you to have an orgasm? The ability to fully contract/relax the pelvic floor can let you have stronger orgasms, however you choose to get off 🎇 #TipTuesday

[Dr. Liana Merrick, PT, DPT, WCS @LianaMerrickDPT]

Did you know that treatment for certain cancers (ex breast cancer, gyn cancer) can cause vaginal dryness, leading to pelvic pain with sitting/sec or urinary incontinence? Pelvic health PT can help! #TipTuesday
