Leaking in Sport and an honest chat with Caity

Welcome back to the Pod! 

In Episode 13, Dani asks Caity for the tell-all behind her time as an elite football player.
We discuss topics such as maternal mental health issues, athletic triad, under-eating behaviours, and post-natal anxiety.

Caity is a pelvic health Physiotherapist, working in Newcastle NSW at Female Focus Physiotherapy.

For those interested in Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI), todays education component discusses SUI in elite athletes, and explains the pathophysiology behind this common condition.
Caity explains how not everyone with Stress Incontinence needs pelvic floor muscle strengthening. Other issues that may be at play include: raised abdominal pressures, thoracic spine and foot bio-mechanic issues, urethral hyper-mobility, fascial defects, and oestrogen deficiency.

Dani's recommendation for the week is to go and jump in the ocean, for a energy boost and immediate "feel good" vibe.
Caity's (belated) recommendation is the new Jessica Mauboy song Give You Love.
