  • What 2025 Taught Me: Big Lessons, Big Laughs, and Even Bigger Growth in Pelvic Health
    Dec 29 2025

    In this reflective end-of-year episode, Lynn looks back on the teaching, travel, and collaboration that shaped 2025. From courses across the U.S., U.K., and Australia to reconnecting with mentors and colleagues, she highlights the shared curiosity and dedication of the pelvic health community and what continues to inspire and ignite her own inner fire.


    Lynn shares two key insights from the year: embracing her role as a heart-centered educator and recognizing the profound impact of integrating head, heart, and hands in clinical practice. She shares her excitement about speaking on spirituality in pelvic health at Pelvicon 2026 and offers a preview of what’s coming next year – a deeply meaningful focus on getting this work into more hands which includes and on to more bodies which will also include the start of some long-awaited book projects!


    The episode closes with gratitude, reflection, and a hopeful vision for deeper, more efficient, and more compassionate care in 2026.

  • The Energy of Our Hands – Supporting Tissue Change Through Connection
    Dec 23 2025

    In this episode, Lynn brings clarity to a topic that many clinicians sense intuitively, but may not always name in their clinical reasoning: the role of energetic connection through our hands.

    While our field relies on research, biomechanics, and tissue science, Lynn reminds us that therapists also work with living human systems – systems influenced by intention, presence, safety, and subtle forms of communication that extend beyond technique.

    Using a simple “energy stick” demonstration, Lynn illustrates how two points of contact complete a circuit. This mirrors what she observes clinically: hands work more effectively when they work together. Two points of contact support greater regulation, clearer signaling, and deeper change in the tissue.

    For pelvic health practitioners, this becomes especially relevant. The pelvic space is a dynamic physical, emotional, and energetic container. Clients often arrive with histories, injuries, or experiences that influence how their tissues respond. Working with both hands can create a sense of connection that helps clients feel grounded and can support the tissue in releasing more efficiently.


    Episode Highlights ✨

    • Why two hands on the body provide more effective results in manual therapy
    • Why the pelvic region often holds unprocessed tension or emotion
    • How to recognize energetic “blocks” and how they may influence tissue responsiveness
    • The importance of therapists' intention and regulation when guiding clients through deeper healing work

    Today’s conversation bridges science, intuition, and clinical experience demonstrating how treating the whole person leads to more comprehensive treatment. While our hands mobilize tissue, they also communicate intention and connection. When we engage with clients on all levels – physical, energetic, and emotional – the work often becomes more efficient, more effective, and more meaningful for both the therapist and the client.

  • Unraveling 19 Years of Postpartum Hip Pain
    Dec 15 2025

    In today’s episode, Lynn shares an extremely complex clinical case with a client who was 19-years postpartum. The work done on this client unraveled layers of unresolved hip pain, bladder dysfunction, and abdominal rigidity that standard care had never been able to resolve.


    With a history of forceps delivery, multiple C-sections, abdominoplasty, hysterectomy, roller-skate falls, and chronic sacral imbalance, this client presented with a highly complex pelvic history. But through skilled, methodical pelvic-health evaluation, both external and internal, Lynn identified the true driver of her long-standing symptoms: a significant right ischial splay combined with fascial tension patterns from surgical scar tissue that were pulling the bladder posteriorly and overstretching the anterior vaginal wall.

    This episode highlights the level of clinical precision, palpatory skill, and whole-body listening required to treat postpartum clients with chronic symptoms. And most importantly – it shows how quickly clients can shift when the right structures are addressed and when the body is listened to.

    After one comprehensive session, this client experienced:

    • Pain-free criss-cross sitting for the first time in years
    • Restored hip mobility
    • Improved pelvic floor-TA coordination
    • Reduced bladder urgency and leakage
    • A softening and normalization of pelvic tissues that had been restricted for nearly two decades

    Lynn also shares why it’s essential to treat what shows up in the body in that moment as that is what the body is ready to address. In this case, the physical system was fully ready to release, creating dramatic change without any need to dig for something more.


    Episode Highlights ✨

    • Long-term postpartum hip pain: what clinicians often overlook
    • The crucial role of ischial splay in hip mobility and femoral rotation
    • How abdominal wall surgeries influence bladder mechanics
    • Assessing the anterior vaginal wall for tension patterns affecting continence
    • Sacral shear + coccygeus tone in the common postpartum pattern
    • When to stay physical—and when to explore deeper layers
    • The clinical power of a single, well-targeted session

  • The Pelvic Chain Behind Tailbone Pain: What Clinicians Need to Know
    Dec 8 2025

    If you treat postpartum clients with coccyx pain, this episode will change the way you assess – and dramatically improve your outcomes.

    Today, Lynn breaks down the often-missed biomechanical and myofascial relationships between the sacrum, coccygeus, and sphincter complex that create a functional tug-of-war on the tailbone. You’ll learn why traditional approaches fall short, the three regions you must evaluate, and how targeted release work restores true pelvic balance.

    ✨ Episode Highlights:

    • The sacrum–sphincter–coccyx “tug-of-war” and why it drives persistent tailbone pain
    • How sacral flexion, ischial splay, and sphincter hyperlengthening commonly show up postpartum – and what they mean for mechanics
    • Why the coccygeus muscles are key players in coccyx tension
    • The impact of sphincter-complex knots on closure, bowel function, and compensatory tailbone strain
    • The three assessment zones every clinician should check to dramatically improve coccyx treatment

    If you want clearer diagnostics, faster results, and more confident coccyx treatment plans, listen to this informative episode.

  • From Fire to Freedom: A Journey of Surrender, Shame, and Self-Trust
    Dec 1 2025

    In this heartfelt episode, Lynn speaks with Australian physiotherapist Lisa Dempsey about her powerful journey through adversity while participating in the Birth Healing Intensive Program. When Lisa’s clinic was struck by a series of challenges, including a devastating fire, she was forced to face her limits, surrender control, and rediscover the power of vulnerability.


    Through the metaphor of “the feather, the brick, and the truck”, Lisa shares how life’s messages escalate until we finally listen, and how choosing to lean into support rather than resist it can change everything. Together, Lynn and Lisa explore the deep interplay between the masculine and feminine, the importance of asking for help, and the healing that comes from feeling and acknowledging shame. Their conversation is a reminder that even in the darkest moments, the light – and our capacity for self-trust – are always present.
