Amadea Kezar runs the ASK Physiothérapie clinic on Green and St-Catherine's in Montreal and she invited me to her office so that we could talk about all things pelvis. The pelvis is essentially at the receiving end of the brain and nervous system so there is no wonder that our pelvic muscles and organs, genitals and evacuation system are entirely affected by patterns of fear and stress, post-partum and everyday habits. Amadea is on a mission to bring awareness and healing to these intimate parts. So many people today experience pain with sex and are understandably afraid or embarrassed to talk about it. So many women have issues with post-partum recovery that can take a toll on their wellbeing. We go right into the shame behind pain and the concrete solution Amadea uses to facilitate healing. We talk extensively about the vagina and specific sensitive areas where her patients can feel discomfort. Amadea talks me through what a typical appointment with her would look like and we cover all the bases such as douching and waxing and ways in which partners can get involved in the conversation about intimacy, pain and our pelvis'. We are incredibly lucky to have people like Amadea and her team of therapists out there in the world, educating and spreading awareness about the pelvis because as I learned, these issues are so widespread and have such an impact on our intimate lives. Bottom line, we are entitled to feel safe, and to feel pleasure, and to feel well in our bodies at any given time. This conversation may be triggering for some so please use your discretion.
