Leaking during a run is one of the most common “I thought I was past this” patterns I hear, especially postpartum and in active women.

What matters most is when it happens, because that often tells me what the cause is:
If it happens at the start, the system may be bracing or not coordinating yet.
If it happens on hills or speed work, it often points to pressure strategy under higher load or muscle imbalance.
If it happens at the end, fatigue is usually changing mechanics and timing.

You do not have to stop running to figure this out. You just need a plan that matches your pattern.

If you’re in Encinitas or San Diego and you want help sorting out your “when,” send me a message and tell me when it shows up: the start, hills, speed work, or the last mile.

Let’s keep this simple and useful.

A rectocele is a type of prolapse that involves the back vaginal wall. Most people do not figure that out from a label. They figure it out from a pattern.

Here are the kinds of questions that often lead someone to look into it:

Do you feel pressure or heaviness that builds during the day?
Do bowel movements feel harder than they used to, even when diet is not the issue?
Do you feel incomplete emptying, like something is stuck there?
Do symptoms feel worse with lifting, carrying, workouts, or standing for long stretches?
Have you ever felt a bulge sensation that comes and goes?

This is not a self-diagnosis post. This is awareness. If any of this fits, a pelvic health provider can assess what is going on and help you understand your options.

If you are in Encinitas or San Diego and you want a calm, straightforward conversation about your symptoms and what support could look like, send me a message.

Your adductors do not get nearly enough credit.

These are your inner thigh muscles, and I think of them as one of the most overlooked players in pelvic stability. They work closely with the pelvic floor, hips, and deep core. So when they’re always tight, overworking, or getting sore fast, I do not just assume they need more stretching.

A lot of the time, they’re trying to help stabilize a system that does not feel well organized.

That can show up in pregnancy, postpartum, pelvic pain, or even with exercise. You feel pulling through the inner thighs, discomfort with certain movements, or like those muscles are constantly “on.”

What to do? Usually not endless stretching. I’m more interested in how you’re breathing, how you’re managing pressure, and whether your hips, pelvis, and core are actually sharing the work well.

If you’ve ever thought, “Why are my inner thighs always doing the most?” this is exactly the kind of pattern I look at.

If you’re in Encinitas or San Diego and this sounds familiar, send me a message and tell me what movements bring it on.

One thing I always do in birth prep sessions is use biofeedback to observe what your pelvic floor does in real time, especially during breathing, bearing down, and relaxation.

For some moms, the pelvic floor is already holding a lot of tension and needs practice letting go. For others, the timing is off and we need to coordinate breath, core, and pelvic floor so labor feels more efficient.

In this post I am showing different positions we use during biofeedback training, including quadruped, side-lying, and lying down. Your pelvic floor can respond differently depending on position, and that information is useful. It helps us practice what actually works for your body instead of guessing.

Biofeedback takes the guesswork out of it. You can see what is happening, learn what “release” feels like, and practice the skills that matter for labor and delivery.

If you are in Encinitas or San Diego and you want to learn more about birth prep sessions with biofeedback, send me a message.

A lot of people think calm is something you can force with mindset, breathing, or willpower.

Sometimes it is not.

Sometimes the nervous system is stuck in a high-alert pattern, and your body does not get the message that it is safe to settle. That can show up as chronic pain, shallow breathing/shortness of breath, “tired but wired”, interrupted sleep and symptoms that feel louder when you are tired or stressed.

Parasympathetic stimulation using tACS is one way I support that downshift. It is gentle, it is not invasive, and it is used to support the parasympathetic side of the nervous system so the body can settle enough for other treatment to land.

If you are in Encinitas or San Diego and you want to ask whether this could be appropriate for you, send me a message and tell me what symptoms you are trying to calm.

Some pelvic pain follows your cycle like clockwork.

A common pattern is pain that spikes around ovulation or mid-cycle, then settles again. For a lot of women, that “ovulation week” flare is not just pelvic aching. It can include bladder urgency or burning, re**al pressure, tailbone discomfort, low back pain, pain with s*x, or a heavy, full feeling in the pelvis.

That timing matters because hormone shifts and inflammation can change tissue sensitivity across the month. When the system is more sensitive, the pelvic floor often guards more, and pain patterns feel louder.

If your pain shows up on a predictable week of your cycle, I treat that as useful clinical information. It helps guide what we assess and how we plan care.

If you want a follow-up post that breaks down the most common cycle-related pain patterns I see and what to track, send me a message and tell me when yours flares: ovulation, before your period, or during your period.

When tests are negative but urgency, frequency, burning, or pressure keeps coming back, I start thinking about patterns that do not show up on a lab report. One of those patterns is pelvic floor overactivity, where muscles stay guarded and the bladder becomes more reactive.

This does not replace medical evaluation. It simply explains why some people keep chasing infections that are not there and do not get relief.

If this sounds like your story, send me a message. Tell me what symptom is most disruptive right now, and I will tell you whether pelvic health OT is a reasonable next step.

Scar work is more than just making your scar look better. It’s about how tissue moves and how the area feels when you twist, stand up, exercise, or deal with pressure from clothing.

If the lower belly still feels restricted, if you notice pulling with movement, or if sensation feels altered, that does not automatically mean anything is wrong. It often means the tissue underneath could use support.

Encinitas and San Diego. Send me a message if you want to talk through what your scar feels like day to day.

These are before and after photos from a C-section scar release 30 minute session using Dolphin Neurostim.

A lot of people live with subtle restriction for a long time without realizing how much their body has been adapting around it. The pulling, the tightness, the way the lower belly does not move normally around the scar can start to feel like the new normal.

Scar release therapy focuses on how the scar and surrounding tissue move and respond. The goal is improved comfort and mobility so the area is not staying restricted as you return to daily activity.

Tissue restrictions can cause symptoms such as bladder urgency or frequency, bowel issues, abdominal muscle weakness, and low back or hip pain.

If you are in Encinitas or San Diego and you want to ask whether scar release therapy is appropriate for your scar, send me a message.
