Prolapse Awareness Month and World Incontinence Week

We’re doubling up this month as it’s World incontinence Week this week and June is Prolapse Awareness Month -  an ideal time to address these very-much connected issues that can affect many individuals on a daily basis. Both urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse are common conditions, especially among women, and they often overlap. Understanding these conditions, and the role physiotherapists in ReformPhysio and Pilates, play in treatment can lead to better management and improved quality of life.

Mental Health awareness week

The theme of this year’s mental health awareness week is Movement: moving more for your mental health.

It seems timely that mental health awareness week falls in the same week that The Birth Trauma Inquiry will be presented to government ministers. According to reports, it’s estimated that 30,000 women a year in the UK have suffered negative experiences during the delivery of their babies. And around 1 in 20 women go on to develop Post traumatic stress disorder.

Caesarean Birth preparation and recovery

What is a Caesarean birth?

Caesarean section, caesarean birth or C-section is when you have an operation to deliver your baby through a cut made in your stomach and uterus. This cut is usually made just around the bikini line.

Most caesarean births are carried out using a spinal anaesthetic so that you are awake but don’t feel any pain.

If you know you are having a caesarean it can be worth investigating your options to make this a more relaxing experience. For example selecting music to be played, requesting changes to lighting or considering how you may integrate hypnobirthing techniques into the delivery (hypnobirthing can still be very helpful for Caesarean birth).

Our reflections on the Aberdeen Health and Wellbeing festival

We were super excited to attend the Aberdeen Health and wellbeing festival, last Saturday, 13th January at Aberdeen’s Beach Ballroom. What a venue!

This was the biggest year yet of this not for profit event, with over 1300 attendees and 60+ stall holders aiming to inspire, educate and motivate the people of Aberdeen to take care of their Health and Wellbeing.

Our stall was next to the mountainous Stoltman brothers, who spent the day lifting fans for photos. We’ve been asked why we didn’t invite them to have a go on the Reformer but I am not sure they would have fitted!
