Mary brings over 30 years clinical and teaching experience to her books and programs on effective pelvic floor training.

Everyday in her clinical work  Mary hears women’s stories of pelvic floor failure and pain. Through education and physical retraining these women develop life changing self awareness, a feeling of empowerment to control pelvic floor problems and gain a renewed enjoyment of life.

Hoping to reach more women than her professional practice allows, ‘Hold it Sister’ is set to transform women’s knowledge of their pelvic floor and its central role in the female body.

Mary runs workshops for women about finding and controlling their pelvic floor and teaches the Fitness Industry about the effect of exercise on the female pelvic floor. She has become an advocate for introducing new protocols and safe exercise guidelines into the Fitness Industry for women with Pelvic Floor Dysfunction.

Having witnessed the effect of pelvic floor dysfunction from her patients’ stories, Mary is determined to educate women about their pelvic floor health, to enlighten and empower them in the management of relevant problems, while giving them the confidence to make informed decisions
