Kathe Wallace and I talk about:
- How intra abdominal pressure occurs functionally and translates over into meaningful tasks. What's the difference between the Valsalva maneuver and the bear down maneuver. Kathe mentions, "airdown as you bear down."
- The Pelvic Floor excursion --- contract, lift and release
- Where Kathe puts her hands and then asks her clients to put their hands for enhanced interoception?
- Telling clients how to learn vs giving them a functional task
- Posture as a reflection of our beliefs and our mood
- How Kathe uses a flexible ruler
- The foot and the pelvic floor relationship -- what??!!!
- How Kathe explains the concept of a 360 approach of breathing to clients
- Kathe shares about the future of pelvic health

Pelvic OTPs United - Lindsey's off-line interactive community for $39 a month!
Inside Pelvic OTPs United you'll find:
- Weekly group mentoring calls with Lindsey. She's doing this exclusively inside this community. These aren't your boring old Zoom calls where she is a talking head. We interact, we coach, we learn from each other.
- Highly curated forums. The worst is when you post a question on FB just to have it drowned out with 10 other questions that follow it. So, she's got dedicated forums on different populations, different diagnosis, different topics (including business). Hop it, post your specific question, and get the expert advice you need.
More info here. Lindsey would love support you in this quiet corner off social media!
