About this episode

Leanne Ward discusses pelvic health with physiotherapist Amelia Godfrey, covering essential topics that women need to know but often don't discuss.

Pelvic health physiotherapist and PelviPatient app founder Amelia Godfrey joins Leanne for the conversation most women need but nobody is having: what healthy bowel habits actually look like, why straining causes long-term pelvic floor damage, whether squatty potties work, what prolapse really is and the tools available beyond pelvic floor exercises, the honest truth about laxatives, government-funded pelvic pain and endometriosis clinics most Australians have never heard of, and how menopause affects pelvic floor tissue in ways HRT alone cannot address.
