C-section + PT, Mother's Day gift card sale, + upcoming events!

The earth is waking up from it's winter nap in South Dakota! I love this time of year! It's been a busy spring filled with birthday celebrations, travels to visit family + friends, + seeing this community grow in so many wonderful ways. This past weekend, Selah Space hosted a garage sale to support their growing nonprofit and the work we’re doing to make holistic healing more accessible for our community. Every item purchased, every donation made, and every conversation shared moves us closer to creating a space where every body, mind, and spirit is seen, supported, and celebrated.

April was c-section awareness month –– a time to honor, educate, and support people who have experienced cesarean births. Our sweet baby Gus came into the world via cesarean. He'll be one in July! 😚 We know that every path to motherhood carries courage, healing, and love.
No matter how your baby came into this world β€” your story is worthy. Your healing is sacred. Your strength is seen.

Heather just finished our Spring Prenatal Yoga Series last week. It was a beautiful time with some very special expectant mothers. What an honor it was to hold space for them. Our summer session will be starting in June; I wonder if I'll see your name on the sign-up list? 😘

I'll be collaborating with Barre3 for another class on May 10th at 8:45am + also doing on an on air interview with Dakota News Now on May 9th at 9am –– talking all things Motherhood + the importance of pelvic floor pt, of course!

πŸ’Happy Mother's Day to you!πŸ’

Pelvic Health Topic of the Month:

Every Pelvis Deserves Care

Oh hi, do you have a pelvis? Cool. You deserve pelvic floor care! Not just postpartum, not just women β€” but for everyone with a pelvis, regardless of age or gender!

You pelvic floor supports the organs above it –– bladder, rectum, uterus/prostate. It forms the foundation of your core, syncing with your breath, abs, + back to power your movement + stabilize your body.

If something feels off in your pelvic floor, it can throw your entire system out of balance... + it often does! You don't have to be postpartum to experience leaking, pelvic pain, constipation, prolapse, low back/hip issues, or painful intercourse. These symptoms can affect men, women, trans and non-binary folks, athletes, aging adults, people with trauma histories β€” truly anyone.

Did you know that Dr. Marysa has additional specialized training in transgender pelvic healthcare and both Lori and Marysa have additional training in the male pelvic floor?

Inside a Treatment at Uprise Pelvic Health

🌸 Pelvic Floor Therapy Post Cesarean 🌸

Even if you didn't have a vaginal birth your pelvic floor still went through major changes during pregnancy + surgery! It's so important to continue to care for your pelvis + it's often overlooked, shockingly.

Let's bring awareness to this.

Pregnancy puts that extra pressure on the pelvic floor as you support that little babe inside of you –– stretching + shifting with your changing body. Add in a c-section surgery + you have a new set of challenges. Scar tissue across multiple layers of muscle + fascia, changes to the abdominal coordination, or maybe sensitivity around your incision.

It matters to care for your pelvic floor however your little one came into the world.

Scar Tissue Mobilization:
Gentle, targeted therapy to soften the C-section scar, improve tissue mobility, and reduce sensitivity or tightness.

Core and Pelvic Floor Reconnection:
Helping you find and rebuild deep core strength (it’s not about crunches or kegels!) and pelvic floor support without overloading healing tissues.

Pain Reduction:
Easing pain around the incision, pelvis, low back, or hips.

Posture and Movement Rehab:
Pregnancy and surgery change how you stand, move, and breathe β€” therapy helps realign and restore fluid movement.

Bladder and Bowel Support:
Even with a C-section, many people experience urinary leakage, urgency, or constipation that pelvic floor PT can address.

Emotional Healing and Body Connection:
Birth (especially surgical birth) can feel overwhelming. Pelvic floor therapy offers a space to reconnect with your body in a safe, empowering way.

Many are told to just β€œlive with it.” We are a safe space to discuss and address all of the concerns you may be uncomfortable sharing. We promise you will be taken seriously and nothing is β€œTMI."
