You're a marvel. My physio in the hospital said something but I was so tired and in so much pain I didn't take it in. Here you are explaining exactly the same thing. Thank you
@juliaadams6088 you're most welcome! It's great that you found the video's content relatable to what your physiotherapist mentioned. Wish you all the best!🙏
I'm 33, 2 weeks post hysterectomy. I have my ovaries so i don't go into menopause. Your videos are helping me along as the drs didnt give much advice except for bed rest. I have a question tho. I have always had snd still have a high metabolism. So much so that resting is a bit of a problem for me as I'm always on the go. How do i gain weight?
Great tips michelle! wished I had of been doing these post op. have really been on my own getting through my new weight of balance and lower back painful stiffness.(6 months now) Think the hardest part for a lot of us who have had prolapse surgery as well as the hysterectomy...being scared of damaging the repair work. I had a grade 4 bladder situation plus rectal prolapse. iTs been very hard but I am very grateful to be this far along and even though the pain and discomfort has been alot I have no regrets. Each day my miracle body is a little bit stronger. Ive really come along since starting putting a yoga block under my sacrum and melting into the floor. About 5 mins each day 🙂 Sitting on a chair and bending over (like folding in half) also loosens up that lower stiffness. I hurt my neck lol doing those side ones you taught us about a week ago....you did say not to push up if you have a weakness there..stay on the ground ....and of course you were right! they are helping too. so grateful you are here.xx
thank you@@naturegirl4074 I am sure you can't wait to be 6 months along too :-) I found not a lot changed for me..I was very fragile till I hit 3 months...and from 3 to 6 months every week...I have improved dramatically. They say that is the cruscial time your body is laying down the strengening scare tissue...so keep positive it will be a long process ..but its worth it!x
@goldstar846 Thank you for your kind words and for sharing your journey! It sounds like you've been through a lot, and I truly appreciate your positive attitude and determination to regain your strength and well-being. I'm glad to hear that you've found some relief and benefit from the exercises and techniques I've shared in my videos. It's important to take your recovery step by step and listen to your body's signals, just as you've been doing. Remember, healing is a process, and it's fantastic to hear that you're making progress. Keep up the great work, and I wish you continued strength and improvement on your journey to recovery. 🙏❤️
I had a hysterectomy 2 weeks ago and had an indwelling catheter for 2 weeks. After removal I have been unable to urinate and have been doing self catheterization. I saw your video on relaxing the pelvic floor, but I am not sure it is safe to do that yet. I also had bladder and rectal prolapse repair at the same time. I am 69 years old and still pretty weak. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
i cant thank you enough beautiful smart sweet young lady Michell is weights bridge exercise good for pelvic floor (with barbell ) i pray that Jesus rewards your generous efforts with me thank you a lot
Oooh the bridge scares me…. Just because all that is attached to sacrum muscles with the sacralcolpopexy and rectopexy. I’m curious. But a least I know this is ok to move around hopefully, I’ve done a similar move moving in bed. PFPT said the lumbar rotation you did was fine. I just did 2 heel slides each side very gently. Thanks Michelle My tailbone and hips are getting really sore from being in bed even though I have been getting up and walking quite a bit.
@naturegirl4074 no need to be scared by the bridge. Rectopexy is perfomed inside the pelvis, the buttock muscles used int the bridge are outside the pelvis. I have often found that women experience sacral/low back discomfort after rectopexy and bridge is a great safe way to get pressure off the sacrum and low back. It is also the only safe way to move around in bed. No head and shoulders lifting forward off the pillow as this uses the strong outer/upper abs and increases pressure on the pelvic floor. I almost always say to patients imagine your head and shoulders are stuck to the pillow after prolapse surgery and hysterectomy. This way they move safely using the bridge. Have a try and tell me how you go, even 1-2 bridges. Slide heels one at a time to butt and then with both knees bent, feet flat lift butt off bed head stays down on the pillow 🌻
@@michellephysio wonderful! Thank you! Yes I am having Pain in low back, I have spine and hip issues but worse since Op and mostly inactivity. I was thinking lifting the head wasn’t good especially laying in back. Is it ok to lift the head a little when on side to adjust pillow etc? Thank you for the reassurance and advice! I so appreciate you! You’ve helped me so much!
@@naturegirl4074 yes I hear you and I've often seen this exact sequela in the past post sacrospinous fixation it's not unusual. If you're still in hospital, best to request a Physio assessment and treatment if available. If you're at home regular safe movement is key. Regular application of warm packs to the low back/pelvis and gentle soft tissue massage to the lower back and upper buttocks can also provide substantial relief along with perofrming regular in bed mobility exercises as shown in this video. Try to avoid lifting head forward but fine to lift in sidelying. Wishing you the very best, I'm here if you need any further info. I can't tell you how long this will last as I havent had the opportunity to assess you formally however based on past patients usually only short term and eases with increased mobility and healing. Best to see your pelvic floor physiotherapist for assessment and management.
@@michellephysio I’m out of the hospital. They let most women put the same day! Isn’t that crazy? I spent one night in hospital. They used mesh for the “pexys” since I have hEDS my own tissue is too weak. I Stayed at a hotel 1 night after I got out of hospital then had to ride home 5 hrs away. I also had to go back for 2 week po check. That was hard. Again at 8 weeks po should be a bit better. I see my PFPT Wednesday to start some massage etc. I have hEDS, spine and hip deterioration too. So it’s lot lol Thank you so much Michelle, you are an absolute gem! I will try not to be afraid! And I will be careful :) I think I’ve done pretty well so far. Thank goodness I e watched your videos and others as well as had PFPT beforehand! I really appreciate your help so much! Oh I forgot to add. Doc said I was hypertonic at 2 week lost op check. I did most the exercises on this video yesterday except bridge, I just now did 2 low bridges. Seemed ok! Edit: since you called attention to the lifting of the head while laying down- I thought I was being super careful but noticed o do lift my head slightly sometimes! I hope o haven’t ruined anything. Still having BM’s and peeing ok. Seems like the perineum fix has lowered a little again and the anus from rectopexy. Not a lot, just a little. Wonder if it’s because of my hEDS or normal. Or part of healing. I’m still not even 4 weeks post op yet
@naturegirl4074 hello there, so lovely to hear from you naturegirl. Yes indeed, these are the exact exercises I prescibe for rectopexy post op, they will help recovery and avoid help reduce risk side effects. These exercises are safe for after prolapse repair surgery/recovery for most women unless advised not to move for example if a woman already has calf clots (DVT) post op then she shouldn't do calf pumps/circulation exercises becuase this exercise can shift a clot. These exercises will prevent the same problems women experience after prolapse surgery in fact I could have called this safe exercises after prolapse surgery for recovery. Let me know if you have any questions, best wishes Michelle
Can anyone tell me if she has an email that I’m able to leave a Private message? She is absolutely wonderful and has helped me beyond words in my journey this last year. Just wanted to throw that out there in case someone reading this is a first timer. I just am an airhead and can’t figure out if an email is even an option..? Thank you! Good luck to all of you out there! ❤
@rosey4381 lovely to hear from you and I’m so glad the info has been helpful to you in your journey over the past 12 months. Yes Rosey, of course email via support@pelvicexercises.com.au best wishes to you, MK 🌸
@naturegirl the greatest risk is when the patient is not moving much during early recovery, this is one reason why starting short frequent walks and moving the legs and feet safely in bed and sitting out of bed is encouraged, especially during early recovery (first 2-3 weeks). Just like long haul flights when we are all advised to do calf pump exercises/small frequent walks everyone is at risk of clots when the legs are immobile for extended periods of time. Post op the risk is increased so important to move, as simple as the circulation exercises in this video. Let me know if you need any futher information. Take care, if you have hsad recent surgery I wish you all the best for your recovery MK
@@michellephysio thank you so much for your detailed, informative and kind responses! Yes I had rectopexy, Sacralcolpopexyand perineum repair on 8/8 so about 3.5 weeks post op now. :) Thank you! It feels good to move some, my body hates not stretching! I was doing some of the stuff here and walking but my body is so ready for some more movements!
