A Pelvic Organ Prolapse Success Story
Michelle's story is absolutely inspiring and I am so grateful she trusted in me to support her on her journey x
"Vicki has actually changed my world - no exaggeration! I have had a prolapse now for around 5 years. I was told not to lift anything heavy by the doctor and that was about it! I went to private physio and she taught me how to do my pelvic exercises. So that was that! I stopped doing anything that involved lifting, stopped running, stopped shopping as I was afraid to lift bags. I started making so many adjustments in my life that I was not even aware I was doing it! Then inevitably I would lift something and everything would come down and I would get that pain in the back and the dragging feeling.
Then I was told about Vicki and Real Strong Women! Initially I resisted as it is a big commitment but things were getting so bad I just thought let’s put me first for a while!
Literally the best thing I have ever done!
Vicki taught me how to breathe!!! She taught me how to lift things safely. The exercises she gave me built my core muscles so I can now lift weights without everything coming down. As an added bonus, I have arthritis in most of my joints especially my knees and I have just completed Tour Du Mont Blanc which is 110 miles around Mont Blanc which includes a massive amount of ups and downs. My knees were absolutely fine and my husband ended up using my knee brace! All those exercises Vicki gave me have helped make me a Real Strong Woman!!!"
