June is Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) Awareness Month
POP—also known as vaginal wall softening—happens when pelvic organs like the uterus, bladder, or bowel shift lower and push into the vaginal canal. It’s more common than you think—and often goes undiagnosed.
Symptoms can include:
• Vaginal pressure or heaviness
• Bulging or “falling” sensation
• Tampons or cups slipping out
• Pain with sex
• Incomplete emptying of bladder or bowel
But here's the good news: You're not alone—and help is available.
Pelvic health physiotherapy is a first-line treatment for POP, and our own Eliza Pereira-Karve, PT, offers individualized care to support you before, during, or after treatment or surgery.
Let’s normalize the conversation. Healing starts with awareness.

Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy: A Powerful Ally for Endometriosis Relief
Did you know pelvic floor physiotherapy can also play a key role in managing endometriosis? While endo is often thought of as just a “reproductive” condition, it actually impacts multiple systems—including the muscles of the pelvic floor. Chronic pain, painful periods, pain with intercourse, and even issues with urination or digestion can all be tied to dysfunction in these deep core muscles.
Pelvic floor physiotherapy helps by reducing muscle tension, improving blood flow, and calming down the nervous system’s pain response. At Natural Choice Medical Clinic in downtown Guelph, our pelvic floor physiotherapist Eliza Peire-Karve works one-on-one with patients to create personalized, effective treatment plans that support healing from the inside out.
If you’re living with endometriosis and tired of feeling like your body is working against you, pelvic physio might be the missing piece.
