How to Prevent and Decrease Sacroiliac Joint Discomfort

The Sacroiliac Joint (SIJ) is located at the base of the spine on either side, where the two sides of the pelvis connect to the sacrum. It is heavily supported by ligaments and musculature. Although it is a movable joint, it is a gliding joint, meaning the SIJ should only allow a small margin of motion and needs a lot of support to hit that balance of just enough, but not too much movement.

3 Moves to Calm Down Your Overactive (Hypertonic) Pelvic Floor

If you are a mom or expecting to become a mom, you have likely heard of the pelvic floor and it is most often referred to as being “loose” or “weak” or “fatigued”.

Why did you become a pre/ postnatal exercise specialist?

After working in a physical therapy clinic I very quickly became aware of how underserved the pre/
postnatal community was. Women who were trying to conceive, pregnant, and postpartum were
seeking out help and guidance in navigating their motherhood journey. The healthcare professionals
did not have the time or resources to be able to provide them the one-on-one attention they needed.
Being able to empower women and help support them through their journey is something that I could
only have dreamed of. The Lotus Method has allowed me to help women not feel alone through this
challenging time in their lives, and I love being able to continue supporting them!

What inspires you the most about our clientele of

Literally running from a meeting straight into an exercise circuit is not uncommon for our mom’s. They
carve out an hour to focus on their strength, their mental health, and their happiness!
