147- Restore Your Spine: Healing the Mid + Upper Back for Core & Pelvic Floor Support

If you’re walking around with your shoulders hunched, neck tight, and feeling like your posture has totally collapsed… this episode is your invitation to breathe deeper, open your heart, and reconnect to your core — from the top down. In this episode of the Restore Your Joints series, we’re diving into the mid and upper back and how it directly affects your pelvic floor , core stability , posture , and even how you breathe. This part of the spine is the bridge between your breath and brace — and if it’s not mobile or functioning well, your healing will feel incomplete, no matter how many exercises you try. We’ll talk about: What the thoracic spine actually does — and why it matters for pelvic health How shallow breathing and tight ribs = poor pressure management The connection between shoulder dysfunction and core weakness My favorite mobility and breath practices to restore your rib cage and upper back How this all ties into pelvic floor symptoms like leaking, prolapse, or feeling disconnected from your core ✨ Whether you’re postpartum, in a season of healing, or simply ready to feel stronger and more aligned — this episode will help you take your next step with confidence and clarity. 🔗 Resources & Links: 🎧 Listen to previous episodes in the Restore Your Joints series: Restore Your Feet & Ankles- https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pelvic-floor-core-more-healing-beyond-kegels-core-rehab/id1682290727#episodeGuid=TheBalancedMomtality.podbean.com%2F59cb722c-0d31-3803-9ccf-d7f338c93b6e Restore Your Knees- https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pelvic-floor-core-more-healing-beyond-kegels-core-rehab/id1682290727#episodeGuid=TheBalancedMomtality.podbean.com%2Ff81252cd-2b11-30ec-843d-7d6ee5d694d6 Restore Your Hips- https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pelvic-floor-core-more-healing-beyond-kegels-core-rehab/id1682290727#episodeGuid=TheBalancedMomtality.podbean.com%2Fea83181c-db3d-3bda-9414-f5d35edf34db Restore Your SIJ + Low Back- https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/145-low-back-si-joint-pain-during-pregnancy-postpartum/id1682290727?i=1000735605542 💌 Ready to reconnect with your core and pelvic floor — the right way?
