Still leaking, dealing with pelvic pain, or feeling stuck—even after doing all the “right” exercises?

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Flávia Ignácio Antônio, PhD, physiotherapist and clinical researcher at the University of Ottawa, with over 15 years of experience in pelvic health, geriatrics, and cardiac rehab.

We unpack the real reasons pelvic floor symptoms persist—and why strengthening alone isn’t always the answer. From hormones like estrogen and relaxin to central sensitization and high-tone pelvic floors, Dr. Antônio helps us make sense of the complexity behind chronic pelvic issues.

We dive into:

The Knack maneuver—how it really works
The estrogen vs. relaxin conversation
Why incontinence isn’t always about weakness
What to know about high-tone pelvic floors
Chronic pelvic pain and the brain-body connection
How new research is shaping better treatment strategies

Whether you're a clinician, an active mom, or someone navigating pelvic health challenges, this conversation brings clarity, compassion, and clinical insight.

🎧 Hit play—then let me know: What’s one pelvic floor myth you believed before you knew better?
