The Not Your Mother's Pelvic Floor Podcast
The Not Your Mother's Pelvic Floor podcast is hosted by Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist and founder of Box Wellness Co., Aliya Dhalla (B.Sc, MPT). You'll learn all the things you should know about your pelvic health - from leaks, painful intimacy, constipation, periods, pelvic pain, prolapse, preparing for birth, postpartum recovery, menopause and so much more. Nothing is taboo on the Not Your Mother's Pelvic Floor podcast.
Solo episodes are educational - Aliya explains why things go "wrong" with our pelvic health and what to do about it. Guest episodes reveal what we as women were told about our bodies growing up, where we learned about puberty, sex, and menopause, and how those early conversations shaped how we navigate our pelvic health as adults.
New episodes every Wednesday.
