In this episode, I sit down with fellow physiotherapist, Anniken Chadwick to discuss:

- How common it is for clients to have experienced some form of trauma in their past
- What questions pelvic health physiotherapists may ask in history taking and why we ask them
- Non-verbal signs that we may observe that can suggest that a client may have experienced trauma
- The importance of having a trauma-informed practice as a pelvic health physiotherapist
- How a previous trauma can be influencing your physical symptoms
- Examples from previous clients who have had various forms of trauma including birth trauma, medical trauma, sexual trauma and emotional trauma
- Different ways that we work with clients to acknowledge how the trauma affects them physically and how to work to change the nervous system and the symptoms experienced
- How we work alongside mental health care providers
