CONTROVERSIAL OPINION: tight ≠ strong.

A strong pelvic floor is one that can squeeze well AND relax well.

Which is why toys like vibes could be one of the most underrated pelvic floor rehab tools.

They help to promote blood flow to the pelvic floor, improve pelvic floor muscle relaxation and improve sensation down there 👀

Thank me later!

WORLD CONTINENCE WEEK 💦
Have you been told bladder leakage is ‘normal’?

While approximately 1 in 4 women experience urinary incontinence, it is common, but NOT normal.

Pelvic floor exercises are often part of the treatment for urinary incontinence. Try this workout!

See a women’s health physio if you experience bladder leakage. You are not alone and you don’t have to live with it.

WORLD CONTINENCE WEEK💧 this one is dedicated to anyone who has been told leaking is ‘normal’.

While approximately 1 in 4 women experience urinary incontinence, it is common, but NOT normal.

Pelvic floor exercises are the first line treatment for urinary incontinence. Try this workout with me.

See a women’s health physio if you experience bladder leakage. You are not alone, but there are treatment options so you don’t have to live with it.

⚠️STOP GOING ‘JUST INCASE’💧

If you’re constantly weeing before you leave the house or as soon as you arrive somewhere…this one’s for you.

Weeing when your bladder isn’t very full teaches the bladder to become more sensitive and can contribute to bladder urgency and frequency. This usually worsens over time!

Share this with that friend that goes just incase 👀 we all have one…

TIME TO RELEASE 🫶

Did you know that the pelvic floor muscles can be too tight? This can cause:
👉 Constipation
👉 Painful in*******se
👉 Heaviness
👉 Urinary incontinence
👉 Overactive bladder
👉 Bladder urgency & frequency
👉 Pelvic pain

Today’s workout focuses on how to breathe to improve your pelvic floor release.

⏰ TIME TO SQUEEZE ⏰

NEVER MISS A MONDAY 💪
Let’s go Kegel Club!

Why? ➡️ Pelvic floor exercises are essential for bladder and bowel control and supporting your pelvic organs through everyday life, pregnancy, exercise and ageing.

This workout focuses on strength and coordination which is key for reducing bladder leakage, reducing heaviness and improving confidence with activity.

Save this and thank me later 😉

And as always, see a women’s health physio if you experience any pain or pelvic floor dysfunction ❤️ these exercises might not be right for you.

STOP RAW-DOGGING THE RUN ☝️

Because preventing injuries is much easier than rehabbing them later 🏃🏼‍♀️

As a women’s health physio I treat so many runners with injuries. And I’m determined not to be one of them 😆

Save this and thank me later!

RED CARD IF YOU SKIP 🚩⚽️

Go the Socceroos! 🦘 Squeeze you pelvic floor with me.

To SQUEEZE: contract the muscles around the va**na and the a**s like you are holding in wind and wee.

To RELAX: let go and you should feel a drop in the muscles. Be sure to relax your lower abs too!

And as always, see a women’s health physio if you have any pelvic floor concerns!
