Prolapse & Exercise: Episode 30 with Teresa Waser
Description
She's back! I'm delighted to welcome Teresa Waser back to the podcast for another conversation. This time, we are taking a deep dive into Pelvic Organ Prolapse & Exercise
We discuss:
- how we need to acknowledge the mismatch between the stage of prolapse and the symptoms
- why we need to make sure our focus is not just on the bio but also encompasses the psychosocial
- challenging the perceptions of danger/safety when it comes to resistance exercise
- educating about the necessity of strength training for women, especially in the peri to post menopausal years
- using the TIIPPSSFC framework that Teresa developed to increase both confidence & competence in exercise Rx for this population (but also where we might need to use caution)
Some great & immediately useful strategies (as you would expect from Teresa!) and you can find & follow Teresa on instagram as @rxphysio and Teresa will also be teaching in person in Cork in March - you can find the details & book here
Thanks for joining us and I'd be delighted if you'd rate, review & subscribe (ideally all 3!) so we can spread the word about evidence based women's health
