054 - Posture Fitting with Siobhan O'Donovan AKA The Booby
Physio
Siobhán O’Donovan (aka The Booby Physio!) Chartered
Physiotherapist Creator and founder of the PostureFitting
physiotherapy service, PostureFitting Partnership, & GALS against
GRAVITY workshops.
If you had asked Siobhán 10 years ago what she would be doing
in 2024, she wouldn’t have predicted being surrounded by all things
breasts and bras! But here she indeed is, on a mission to raise
awareness of, and demonstrate her solution for, the very
underestimated impact of breast weight on women and
girls.
A chartered physio with a Master’s degree in the Prevention
and Management of Sport Injury, Siobhán has always been a
solution-seeker. With over 30 years of clinical experience working
with patients to prevent, treat, rehab and deter problems, she
developed PostureFitting, a physiotherapy service which connects
breast weight and support with posture. The resultant effects on
her patients in feeling, moving, looking better were too good to
keep a secret, and she now trains other therapists to offer the
PostureFitting service.
Their mutual goal is to educate, empower & enlighten, in all
ways, so that more gals win their daily battle against gravity,
while busting breast & bra booby traps! 👙
Siobhan's top 3 tips:
1. To quote a fellow physio, do your own "Mesearch" - know
your body so you know when things are changing and you need to do
something proactively to manage that change, whatever it may
be.
2. Ask questions of reliable sources - the only stupid
question really is the one you don't ask - but be mindful of those
proclaiming recommendations without having the weight of
information on consequences behind them. Make an informed choice
for yourself rather than follow someone else's actions without due
consideration.
3. Movement really is the best medicine of all. You deserve to
feel well so make room so that your wellness is as much of a
priority as the other priorities in your life.
