Pelvic health leaders, what does evidence-based practice really mean? Also, what does it mean for your team to be evidence-based practitioners?

In this episode, Becky reframes evidence-based practice by demonstrating why scientific research alone cannot guide effective pelvic health care. She illustrates how true evidence-based treatment requires equal reliance on research, clinical reasoning, and patient preferences, especially when navigating complex cases like prolapse and high-level lifting.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

(2:33) How the “evidence police” often misunderstand what evidence-based practice truly is when attacking clinicians online.

(4:00) How protocol-based approaches—like app-based Kegel prescriptions—limit patient progress.

(7:16) Why rigid adherence to protocols harms patient trust.

(10:20) The danger of putting all your weight into research without considering clinical judgment or patient desires.

(13:05) How to integrate research findings with patient goals.

(15:00) Why Becky redesigned her Clinical Mastermind to train clinicians in all three pillars of evidence-informed care.

(17:13) Specific methods Becky teaches for asking better questions and understanding patient motivations.

Pelvic health leaders, are your clinicians unintentionally overwhelming patients with manual and orthopedic care before addressing their fear-based symptom loops?

In this conversation, Becky and her guest Paige Genova unpack why so many chronic pelvic pain cases plateau, and how neuroplasticity explains the missing link. Paige also introduces her six-step “pelvicology” framework, showing clinicians exactly how to apply neuro reprocessing therapy alongside manual work, orthopedic interventions, and emotional pattern recognition.

Paige Genova is an occupational therapist and founder of Vital Pelvic Health & Wellness in Ohio. She specializes in complex pelvic pain and created Pelvicology, a neuro-informed clinical framework for treating chronic symptoms at the root.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

(02:40) Why neuropsychology and sensory interpretation form the foundation of chronic pelvic pain.

(06:52) Why symptom improvement before an appointment often reveals neuroplastic mechanisms rather than structural change.

(09:10) Why traditional pain neuroscience education falls short.

(14:37) How to determine whether a patient is primarily neuroplastic, primarily musculoskeletal, or a blend.

(16:50) How manual therapy, exercises, and neuro reprocessing work together to create corrective experiences that retrain the brain.

(33:12) How guided imagery and emotional identification can help patients break long-standing symptom cycles.
