CARING FOR YOURSELF DURING PREGNANCY
Ready to find long-lasting relief from pelvic pain & leakage?
You’re A busy HYPER COMMITTED Go Getter—
Does this sound like you?
You have serious FOMO from missing out on Saturday long runs with your besties because your bladder issues have you desperate for a toilet after 5 minutes of jogging?
You are so tired of your back pain and your back going out every time you try to roll around playing “don't touch the hot lava” with your kiddos.Maybe you are really annoyed about needing to sprint to the toilet every hour between meetings distracting your ability to focus at work?
IF THAT SOUNDS TOO FAMILIAR, YOU ARE IN THE RIGHT PLACE!
I SEE THIS ALL THE TIME!
Over the years
you have tried everything:
✔︎ Pelvic PT 3 times a week at that place that is super close to your house, the busy clinic where you don’t feel like you feel heard, you are still confused about your diastasis recti, and you do the same exercises you do at home with some high schooler after the PT sees you for 10 minutes and you aren’t getting answers on how to exercise without peeing your pants.
✔︎ The popular running PT who does not know how to check your pelvic floor - you leave feeling great for 3 hours, but you are back to hurting the next day. You’ve been bracing your spine every time you try to pick up your preschooler, but your back still aches at the end of a busy day when you are standing washing dishes after dinner.
✔︎ You’ve been following #pelvicfloormuscles and are super confused about whether to do kegel exercises or not to kegel and you really really wish you could just figure out what’s going on with your body.
YOU ARE THINKING TO YOURSELF,
There has got to be a better way!
You look around and see your neighbors happily chasing after their kids after dinner and you feel stuck. You aren’t able to plan the fun hiking and camping trips you’ve always dreamt of and making new memories while being active with your kids because your back pain gets in the way.
You are so over having to change your clothes mid-day because you didn't make it to the bathroom on time at work.
You feel guilty about going on a trying to go on a run because the laundry is always piled up and you barely have time to prioritize lunch during the work day slammed with back to back meetings before carpool.
If this sounds too familiar — you’re not alone and it’s not your fault!
You might have also heard-
Your pesky back pain you’ve had since your pregnancy 5 years ago will go away on its own and that This is just part of old age
You have to wear pads for the rest of your life because you friends and mom have this problem too
But you don’t believe this is how it should be because you wonder, “Do I REALLY have to deal with this forever?”
I want you to know that you are not alone and healing is possible and this is exactly what I help with!
The problem is that we live in a go- go go society that has many people believing that a good parent cares for everyone else and prioritizes their own health needs last,
but the problem with that mentality is that it leads to burnout, EXHAUSTION, and Chronic body pain.
And yet a lot of parents don't realize that the behaviors you model to your kids have a powerful effect on the actions your kids take in their own lives.
But the thing is, a lot of moms feel guilty about prioritizing time for themselves because of the demands of cleaning home and folding laundry after a busy work day when they barely even had time for lunch away from their computer.
If this hit too close to home, you aren’t alone!
What if instead of feeling guilty about making time for yourself-
what if pouring into your cup so that you are overfilled with joy from doing something you love and prioritizing your health means that what you are modeling to your kids SPILLS OVER into the way you are parenting
and this changes the way your kids view the world by creating a different narrative of their future that they deserve to feel good in their bodies and prioritize their own needs.
It would feel amazing, wouldn’t it?

How can I help?
Phase 1 Clarity
A diagnosis of “pain” doesn’t tell us what is causing the bothersome symptoms that you are experiencing when you try to connect intimately with your partner or why you notice pain for 3 days after you deadlift heavy .
Together we’ll help you figure out the "why" of your body signals and together get to the root of the mechanisms causing your pelvic pain and bladder symptoms so that you go from feeling fearful of pain that holds you back from intimately connecting with your partner to instead crying tears of joy because your body feels so safe and feeling like a bad ass in the gym as you hit PRs again.
Phase 2 Calm
During this phase we calm symptoms down with continued targeted treatments from the trouble areas we found in the Clarity phase and introduce simple yet powerful tools allowing you to go from feeling fearful of injury to instead consistently working out harder in the gym so that you can keep up with your kids without fear of your back going out.
Phase 3 Resilience
Resilience is built as you add more movement challenges into your body and handle life stressors like work deadlines, sick kids, holiday travel with strategies you know will work to keep you pain free and avoiding crashing, hitting the wall and being burnt out again.
In this phase you will embody confidence with accountability and support from Dr Henry. You will learn strategies to test challenge exercises in the gym and navigate everything on your life plate all while having continued support to ensure long lasting relief which comes from delaying return of your bothersome bladder urgency symptoms that interfere with your ability to focus at work and join your friends for a long run on the weekends.

Want in on that?
Can you imagine this?
❤︎ How would it feel to believe you are STRONG and not worry about your back every time you carry 80 pounds of wiggly kiddos up the stairs for bedtime?
