    All About Pessaries - Orthotics For Your Pelvic Floor

    All About Pessaries - Orthotics For Your Pelvic Floor

    Gaynor Morgan opened C&G Medicare Ltd in 2006 in loving memory of her mother Carole.

    Carole, suffered for years with stress incontinence despite having had 5 successful years post op TVT. Finding no adequate solution to the problem mother and daughter worked together using their nursing expertise to develop the first IncoStress prototype.

    Following Carole’s tragic death in 2004 Gaynor continued the quest and focused on developing the pessary Incostress and IncoLite further to help women who suffer with stress incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse. The clinical trials showed 30% of women came off the waiting list for surgery and 84% of women had an improvement in incontinence issues. The incostress was further tested with Dr Bruce Crawford a board certified urogynaecologist and founder of Pfilates exercise program for incontinence and prolapse. The results showed a 98% improvement.

    With the efficacy of Incostress, Gaynor went on to open up her own pessary manufacturing company and also became Europe’s largest pessary distributor. Here, IncoLite and Bellecup were further developed and produced.

    Gaynor is respected by key opinion leaders in the pelvic health field for her tenacity in continuing to raise awareness and signpost women to the right places to find the proper treatment for their needs.

    The turn of Brexit and the pandemic forced Gaynor to close her company, and gave way to new horizons, where is now focused on training. 

    Combining her skills from the last 25 years, as a pessary expert, certified personal trainer, breathing coach, Science of stretching instructor and qualified teacher, she set out to create Pelvic Angel, and educational platform for both medical professionals and patients to find various courses run by herself and other leading professionals to bring about the best training and educational resources to those in the field of pelvic health.

    A leading pessary expert Gaynor works trains clinicians and physicians in pessaries from the basics to how to manage patients with sever complications involving pessary use.
    She is also and advisor to some of the worlds leading pessary manufacturers and is consults for the women’s health side of a major medical company.

    Gaynor has created a pessary catalogue which features all pessaries and gives this out to the professionals who attend her courses. She has also created a condensed version for patients, so they can discuss options with their own medical advisors.

    Gaynor is vice president of European Women’s Innovator and Inventors Network (EUWIIN) which is part of Global Women’s Innovation and Invention Network (GWIIN) where she advises and speaks at events helping other inventors who are looking to bring products to market.

    Better Sleep, Better Pelvic Health?

    Better Sleep, Better Pelvic Health?

    Tierney Gunthorpe has been a physiotherapist for over 17 years and during this time she always worked in private practice. She obtained her Bachelor of Science In Physical Therapy from Queen's University in 2005 and then her Masters in Clinical Physiotherapy in 2012 from Curtin University, in Perth Australia.

    Since she become a physio, she doesn't just focus on your area of pain, she identifies and corrects the root cause. She believes in whole client treatment, giving you an all around treatment approach that has better results than just treating the symptoms.

    And when she started to have her own sleep issues after she stopped nursing her son during the night, she wanted to find out why she was having sleeping issues and not just take sleeping pills.

    She hated the women she was becoming - impatient, cranky, short tempered, tired all the time, inability to do her job well so she knew she had to change.

    So, after taking several courses in sleep, reading and researching sleep, she became a sleep coach after she fixed her sleeping issues as she realized that there is a huge gap between the health care system in sleep.

    Sleep is the foundation of our health. We break down our bodies during the day and repair them at nighttime.

    She cares about her clients and provides an individualized approach to your sleep issues. She takes the time to listen to your story, do a full assessment to completely understand your problem, the root causes, and identify core areas to focus on in order to improve your sleep quality.

    There is no greater satisfaction than helping someone waking up rested with a clear mind, feeling good to take on another good day.

    Pelvic Floor Avulsion - A Lifelong Birth Injury

    Pelvic Floor Avulsion - A Lifelong Birth Injury

    First and foremost, Stephanie Thompson is a brave mumma (and wife). Her long journey to becoming a mum is her greatest achievement.

    Her 'never-die' attitude and resilience to adversity was never going to let cancer or birth trauma stop her from being the 'best' mum she can be.

    With over 20 years experience in education and leadership, she knows how important advocacy is for making real change. After completing her degree in education, she worked in the classroom of public schools across Sydney for the next decade.

    Prior to the birth of her babies, she was an educational consultant, while also running a small tea business and competing in triathlons. Busy is what she does best.
    Stephanie lives with her loving husband, two little people and fat cat on the south coast of NSW. She isn't able to be a teacher, a triathlete or tea business owner anymore. The trauma from giving birth has left her body broken.

    But, of course that's not the end of the story...

    After looking in all the wrong places for resolve, she discovered writing and her voice.
    She is now helping to make way for change in this women's health literacy space.

    Stephanie created the Bravemumma community and is working hard to advocate for better education, connection and care for women's pelvic health. Her aim is to ensure women can feel empowered to make informed decisions about their pelvic health.
