hello everyone!

Body: 

Hello ladies!!

I have not been here in a while and have not kept up with any posts...I hope that you are all finding your way and making progress...

My cystocele and rectocele have worsened and out of desperation I went a few weeks ago to see a physical therapist on long Island who specializes in prolapse. (Essential Physical Therapy of Great Neck). I was very impressed with the ladies there(there were 2 of them). They were very sensitive, compassionate and professional. It unfortunately cost a lot of money but they spent a lot of time with me and designed a daily routine for me to follow. They were very optimistic about my healing process. So I wanted to share this hope with all of you and would be happy to tell any of you more about it if you are interested. I am not online as much as I used to be(don't have a computer at the moment) but can still get here...

Also, I will be going on a camping trip to NM! Christine, are you around? I would love to get more info on what will be offered at the WholeWoman Center in August! I hope to come in for a day for some classes! Also to get some info on where to spend a night there in Alberquerque and good hiking/camping places...?! If anyone has info on this, feel free to e-mail me privately, thanks!

I wish you all the best and hope to catch up a bit...

blessings,
Stella

hi there
was thinking about you, wondering how you've been getting along
I think I've heard about that PT practice, my doula knows or works with? don't remember a PT in Great Neck, wonder if its the same one. she did give me the name and number when I told her about my prolapse, but I've since misplaced it.

In any case, I hope you find them helpful. by the way, have you seen the nauli posts? if not, try typing 'nauli' into the search box. alemama's shared this awesome stomach vacuum thing which some of us have found quite helpful. maybe you will too.
what type of program have the PT's designed for you? I am interested, I haven't yet heard of any PT program other than glorified kegels and massage. would love to know what else is out there. do they address posture at all?

I think christine's taken a hiatus from the forum due to many pressing projects, but I'll let her know you'll be in NM

I know this has been mentioned before, but a long while ago, preference is not to share Dr's names on the site. not sure if that also applies to PT's. will double check with Christine. sharing names via email is, of course, encouraged : )

glad to hear from you again, hope you stick around a bit

Nice to hear from you!
Lots of changes here.
I haven't seen the nauli posts-I will look for them-thanks for telling me...
I will come back later or tomorrow when I have more computer time to explain more about the PT...
more later!
