Hey Momma! I’m Dr. Desiree Cassell, a Doctor of Physical Therapy that specializes in Women’s Health aka Pelvic Floor, a wife, mom of 3, foodie and lover of all things movement and mindfulness (bonus if it’s outdoors)! I can’t tell you how excited I am that you are here checking out The Balanced Momtality Women’s Health and Wellness Podcast! During my first pregnancy I experienced all the typical issues like DRA, urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and even hemorrhoids 😳. Only to be told “welcome to #momlife” by society and other moms in my life. So, like you, I accepted it as “normal”. Then, while working for my Doctor of Physical Therapy, I got pregnant with my second (still dealing with all the same issues and more 6 yrs later) and decided to put my new found knowledge to the test. YOU GUYS I was able to not only stop my urinary incontinence and prolapse from getting worse, I STOPPED LEAKING AND FEELING SYMPTOMS ALL TOGETHER! This is when my passion for educating, empowering and supporting other women and moms was born. I just knew I had to shout it from the rooftops that all those “common” symptoms ARE NOT NORMAL! You do not have to suffer and there IS HELP! Unfortunately, I brought all these issues up to my providers during my first pregnancy, only to be brushed off and told to do kegels and exercise. With that advice, I kegeld my life away and took a Pilates class postpartum that actually turned my DRA into an umbilical hernia and caused pain with intercourse because kegels were actually the opposite of what my pelvic floor needed (more on that inside the podcast 😉). Inside this podcast you will learn all about the pelvic floor and core system, common dysfunctions within the system during pregnancy and postpartum (and in general), how to connect and be aware of your body’s limits and how to SAFELY push those limits so you can be the strong, confident, and happy balanced momma you and your family deserve! Now let’s get you out of those pads and back to jumping on the trampoline with your kids and enjoying movement again! Put those airpods in, grab your water, roll out your mat and let’s connect!

  • 93- What You Need to Be Successful In Your Health and Wellness Journey and RESTORE Your Core & Pelvic Floor// An Update on My PeVD Journey Post Iliac Vein Stent
    2025/01/27
    Hey Girl! Today's episode dives into my recent healing journey from an Iliac Stent Placement to treat my PeVD (Pelvic Venous Disorder or Pelvic Congestion Syndrome) and more about what I have been working on during my recovery to help you succeed in reaching your health and wellness goals this year! Are you a busy mom or woman who is tired of peeing your pants when you sneeze, cough, jump or run? Maybe you’re postpartum and wanting to restore your pelvic floor and core so you can feel strong and confident in your body, but not sure which exercises are “safe” and which might make your problems worse? How are you supposed to exercise and heal if you have no time or energy? 😱 Is it actually possible to sneeze, run or jump on a trampoline without pain, pressure or peeing your pants?! 🤯 I bet you’ve tried kegels, traditional core exercises and maybe even started going to the gym or seeing a personal trainer…And nothing has quite worked for you, right? How do you find the ⏰ TIME ⏰ to take care of yourself and workout for 45-60 minutes a day if you're a busy mom jugging allll the things or have a full time job or BOTH?!? How do you justify spending money on a gym membership or physical therapist if you don’t think you have the time to actually go or put in the work?? 😨 Why's it so nerve-racking to invest in YOU and YOUR HEALTH?! Is the constant battle of worrying if you're going to pee your pants when you're out in public or exercising really worth it? Or should you just stop doing the things you love? Can you really get a strong core and pelvic floor without having to take time away from your family to spend an hour at the gym, when you don’t even have the energy? 🤔 And when should you even start strengthening your pelvic floor during pregnancy or postpartum? 🤔 Should you even be doing “core” exercises? 🤔 What about kegels? Are you doing them right or should you even be doing them at all? 🤔 What about making things worse if I do the wrong exercises or do them the wrong way?! 🤔Is this just life after babies? STOP. JUST STOP. 🤯 If any (or all) of the above questions run through your head… day after day… I might be able to help. Hey, it's Dr. Des here… 👋 And, while I don't claim to know it all, I HAVE helped thousands of busy active women transform their body & life by creating a sustainable step by step action plan. They call themselves a Balanced Momma 💪 And yet… Not that long ago, I was in your shoes. Those early days were rough. I'd take a step forward only to take three more back. I was drowning in overwhelm from the chaos of motherhood and the guilt when I wanted to take time for myself to exercise and restore my body. Anyways, if that's kinda how you feel right now... Let me give you a road map, so that you stop hitting dead ends or getting lost on back roads, and instead take the fast lane to a strong mind and body that you can be proud of. Let me show you that YOU can feel confident and strong without pain, pressure or peeing your pants! 💪 👇 Here is what I’m proposing. 👇 I’ve had a TON of busy mommas and frustrated women, just like you, reach out to me asking for my help. So I had this crazy idea to build a step by step plan to guide you from feeling overwhelmed and worried that you're going to make things worse, to doing all the things you love with confidence (and no pads ) in just 8 weeks! No fluff. No messing around, just a simple plan to take you from limiting your activities and wearing pads to running, playing and joining your kids at the trampoline park again! ✅ If you are interested in claiming one of the 10 spots available, APPLY to the link below: 👉 APPLY for RESTORE https://zk54zbgub54.typeform.com/to/bkF2AUKm As always, if you are experiencing any pelvic floor/women's health issue like urinary incontinence/leaking, pelvic pain, pain with sex, urgency, heaviness/prolapse or any other back/hip/joint pain and you want a totally individualized approach, then let's get you booked for a virtual one-on-one coaching session or in person physical therapy session for a more individualized plan and one-on-one instructions so you can feel confident in your body and start healing today!! ~XO Dr Des Make Sure to reach out to> PTDes@balancedmomtality.com AND/OR Join my FREE Facebook community for ACCOUNTABILITY and a safe and supportive place to share and support each other!> https://www.facebook.com/groups/1696216757461633/ Join my VIP Insider group and receive my Newsletter full of great tips and tricks and upcoming resources! > https://newsletter.balancedmomtality.com/ Follow and get tips/tricks on: Facebook> @thebalancedmomtality Instagram> @the_balanced_momtality Learn > www.balancedmomtality.com

  • 92- How to Progress Kegels and Pelvic Floor Strengthening Exercises to Prevent Leaking, Pain and Pelvic Organ Prolapse
    2025/01/20

    Hey Love,

    Have you wondered how to make those kegels transfer to not leaking during a jumping jack or while running or chasing down your kids? Wondering what's the best way to progress your exercises so that you can keep getting stronger without doing too much and causing more prolapse, pain and leaking? This is a very common and valid concern as the worst thing you could do is go too hard and cause injury, leaking or prolapse when you never had it before that. That is why I am so excited that my New App Pelvic Floor, Core & More is Launching SOON! My first program inside this platform is going to be an 8 week RESTORE program that walks you through the steps, taking the guesswork out!

    Inside today’s episode I am giving you some ideas on when and how to progress safely and effectively, but also what my progressions and weekly breakdown will look like inside of the Restore program. It is so important to make sure that you are not just doing kegel, but connecting the whole kinetic chain to work together so that you can restore your whole body, starting at the core! It is more than just adding weights and reps. Is it functional? Is it realistic? Is it progressing you towards the bigger higher intensity exercises like running, jumping, and HIIT training you are so anxious to be able to do? The Restore program not only will help guide you through safe and effective workouts each week, but will also give you a weekly lesson to help you understand your body and how to heal and prevent issues in the future! There is also a weekly group coaching call for accountability, trouble shooting and any questions you may have to help tailor the program more individually to you!

    If you are interested in learning more about the Pelvic Floor, Core & More program and want to get in on the Beta stages for BIG discounts… then click the link below to APPLY TODAY! Launching will begin next week, but spots are limited so if you think you want to join DON’T WAIT and schedule your Discovery call today! Click the link below!

  • 91- Know How to Choose a Pelvic Floor PT or Women’s Health Fitness Program// Avoid Wasting Time With Programs and People That Claim to Be Experts
    2025/01/14

    Hey Girl,

    Have you joined the FREE Pelvic RESET 5 Day Challenge over inside the FaceBook group yet? If you are ready for a RESET and to get back on track with your goals or if your pelvic symptoms flared up over the Holidays, then this challenge is for you! Also Stay tuned for my Pelvic Floor, Core & More APP, which will host my NEW RESTORE 8 week program, guiding you through the very foundational basics of pelvic health and healing, all the way to return to sport and higher level exercise! Of course New Years brings up tons of “new programs”, especially on social media and its hard to know what is high quality and what is just crap. You can’t trust that every program is designed with the knowledge and expertise of a specialist and many personal trainers claim their "women's health experts” simply because they had a child before.

    That’s why inside this week’s episode I am helping you understand what to look for when you are deciding to try a new workout or fitness program or see a Pelvic PT, because even all PT’s are not all the same and lack the approach that your body needs! This can be very scary because you want to trust the person or program you are investing in, but if you haven't done your research, you might be frustrated at the end wondering why you didn’t get the results you were hoping for. Inside my Challenge and my New programs, I not only will provide you will 8 weeks worth of lessons and exercise progression, but also a private community and group coaching calls so that you can have individualized guidance and accountability so that you WON’T FAIL!

    The Pelvic Floor RESET CHALLENGE started yesterday 1/13/25 but it’s not too late to join and all replays and homework will be available on the facebook group page linked below!! I will be showing up on my private and free facebook group to chat about how and what we need to do to plan and prepare to be a BEST SELVES AND CRUSH THIS YEAR!

    • Day 1 I talked about mindset and goal setting
    • Day 2 will be all about the major foundations of our Health (sleep, hydration, diet, stress)
    • Day 3 will all about pelvic floor with a Pelvic Floor 101 chat
    • Day 4 I will discuss kegels and if you need them or not and how to do them
    • Day 5 will be more about functional strengthening beyond kegels and how to connect and restore your core (beyond the pelvic floor) and a sneak peak inside my Pelvic Floor, Core & More APP!

    There is no better time to decide to invest some time into yourself and get your body AND mind ready for the challenge ahead! Because let’s be real… It is going to be a challenge but it will be worth it and I will be in your corner making sure you have everything you need to succeed!

    If you want IN on the 5 Day Pelvic RESET Challenge then go over to my facebook page listed below, join and comment on my challenge post and stay tuned each day of the challenge as the most active participants will receive a prize! I will be giving away a pelvic wand, water bottle, a FREE session with me ($240 value) AND a seat inside my NEW APP (>$900 value)!!

    As always, if you are experiencing any pelvic floor/women's health issue like urinary incontinence/leaking, pelvic pain, pain with sex, urgency, heaviness/prolapse or any other back/hip/joint pain let's get you booked for a virtual coaching session or in person physical therapy session for a more individualized plan and one-on-one instructions so you can feel confident in your body and start healing today!!
