How does pelvic health impact your travel experiences?
In this episode of the Transform with Travel podcast, I’m joined by Susan Winograd, a pelvic health expert. This insightful discussion explored the often-overlooked connection between pelvic health and travel, providing valuable advice for travelers of all kinds.
Susan emphasized the importance of a whole-body wellness approach, integrating various modalities to support clients comprehensively. This approach isn’t just about addressing immediate health issues but ensuring long-term wellness. Susan’s clinic offers a full spectrum of services, including nutrition and wellness programs, to help clients feel their best throughout life.
Susan provided practical tips to maintain health while traveling. Simple practices like changing positions frequently, staying hydrated, and planning for potential constipation can make a big difference. Breathwork was also highlighted as a powerful tool for pelvic health, helping balance the body’s systems with every inhale and exhale.
Traveling across time zones often disrupts sleep patterns. Susan explained the importance of adjusting to local time as quickly as possible to help regulate bodily functions, including sleep and bladder control. Getting immediate exposure to sunlight upon arrival and integrating familiar routines can aid in this adjustment.
Susan’s overarching message is to be proactive and plan for your health. By modifying what can be controlled and embracing new experiences, travelers can enhance their well-being. For those looking to connect with Susan, her practice Pelvicore Rehab and Wellness in Boca Raton, Florida, offers a wealth of resources, and she can be found across various online platforms.
