In this episode I sit down with Dr. Courtney James of Heart and Sole therapy in Billings, MT.
We discuss all things pelvic health including incontinence, pain, prolapse, and how the pelvic floor changes during crucial points in a woman’s life including pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and menopause.
In addition to extensive training in women’s health Dr. Courtney is a horseback rider and mom herself. Needless to say, she knows her stuff.
The episode is filled with valuable tools, tips, and information that will have you going “ahhh that’s why…” and get you started on the path to resolving this pesky issue at any age. Hint: there are different factors that affect incontinence at different life stages!
Normalizing discussion in these areas is important to both Courtney and I and we both truly believe that women should be able to enjoy their horses at any stage of life.
You’ll learn valuable tips from Courtney that you can start applying TODAY!
Incontinence is a HUGE issue for female horseback riders. But you don’t have to live with it! Head to www.solidinthesaddle.com/incontinence to get our FREE PDF of incontinence exercises for horseback riders.
