So it's in conjunction with. So if somebody has kind of a pelvic misalignment or they need some kind of chiropractic adjustment, I'll continue to see them while they see the chiropractor. Because if you get adjusted, but the muscles are still spasmed or overactive, then that displacement is going to reoccur. Like the chiropractor is kind of putting it back in place.
But if you don't fix the muscles and tissues and ligaments that are influencing that, then it'll persist. So I work on, say you get realigned or I release the muscles and tissues. It makes it easier for a chiropractor to adjust you. So it's very much in conjunction. I don't do, PTs don't do any x-rays. We're not licensed to do them, but I also, people aren't coming in to see me for a fracture.
Yeah. Most often people aren't coming in to see us for acute pain. We can work with chiros and physicians to get that, but I would say most often that's not what we see.
What I do do though is I absolutely refer to a physician of like, I think that there's, you know, I've had two women come in who have pain with sex and when I'm working on them, they have this deep hip pain and their hips are so overactive and they've got popping and clicking. I'm like, I think you have a labral tear.
And then I'll refer them to an orthopedist and they get an MRI and they do have a labral tear. but the hip dysfunction is influencing the pelvic floor. So you kind of just have to have your thinking cap on is to like look outside the pelvic floor muscles. But we work with and collaborate with other practitioners all of the time. I think that that's, a real strength of physical therapists.
I think sometimes other practitioners are like, no, we're just going to do this or we're just going to do medicine or we're just going to do surgery where we're really thinking about like all the different aspects and really trying to collaborate to do what is most supported in the evidence is to have like multidisciplinary care.
It's not a prank. I mean, it's what we're trained to do. You know, like our system is siloed. Like you go see one person for the one thing. But I think as we grow as practitioners, like I didn't used to work with chiropractors and now I, all of my pregnant patients are seeing chiropractors and, you know, things like that.
And so I think it's a way you kind of find, you also find the people who kind of align with your philosophies, you know? And so I think that, you know, as I practice, I'm like, I don't know everything by any means. I just know a lot about a very small topic.
That I can help you with. Outside of that, we'll find the right person for you.
So on social media, my handle on Instagram is TheVaginaWhisperer where you can just – I have so much information on there. And then I also have my website, TheVaginaWhisperer.com has all my blogs, which is totally free. I have a bunch of free guides for everything from birth to pelvic floor, you know, relaxation for painful sex, for – perimenopause, just, you know, resources for folks.
And then we offer online consultation. So if you do want to meet with somebody one-on-one, it's a really easy way to do that. And then, of course, the membership where people can have kind of at-home pelvic floor training programs. And you take a quiz so we kind of know what you need help with and help direct you down the path.
So all of that is free except for the membership is paid, but it's super affordable. I mean, somebody's like, I'm like, it's the cheapest program is $21. It's so cheap. And I was like, the other day I went and, you know, my kids wanted Chick-fil-A. I'm like, I just spent 50 bucks at Chick-fil-A. What kind of economy is this?
You know, but it's like you, when you think about what you spend money on, I'm like, this is your health. And as you mentioned, like this is, probably the most important thing that we can take care of. We do live in a system where I'm like, you have to be the advocate for yourself. Solutions are not going to fall into your lap.
Physicians are not going to always ask you the right questions and lead you to the right person. You have to really dig and fight and advocate for yourself because it's just the way that it is. And so I really encourage folks if they think they have a problem or they're
Experiencing one to like check out the website buy the book take the quiz whatever it is But just just start somewhere just make one change And I think you'll realize that again like these really simple things can go a really long way And i'm also like I want to have great sex until I die. I don't I want to run forever I want to work out forever. So like why?
Would I not do the things to help me be able to do that? and um You know, I'm in perimenopause right now, and I think that there's a lot of doom and gloom around kind of this stage for women, but I really see it as like a runway. I'm like, okay, I've got the yellow light flashing. I'm like, you need to strength train. You need to eat better. You need to take care of your body.
You need to strengthen your pelvic floor, right? You know, like just like we take care of our skin externally, like take care of your insides too. And so I really look at it as an opportunity to like I get this warning signal before my hormones completely shift. Listen to them. Like be proactive and feel in control of your health instead of feeling like it's controlling you.
No. I mean.
Not yet. I mean. You should. You know, I love this topic and I, it's like just a body part to me. It's like an ankle. It's not that big of a deal to work with it and talk about it.
And I'm just really appreciative to be able to collaborate with folks like you who are open to sharing this information with their communities and not making it weird or awkward, but like, hey, let's talk about this because, you know, people need to know.
