Pelvic Floor Strength & What is NOT Normal 🤔
I feel like there are so many terms that get thrown around when talking about the pelvic floor! "Too weak" "overactive" "leaking" - what is normal & what's not?!
Understanding the core & pelvic floor is so valuable, especially during pregnancy & postpartum!
Pelvic Floor Health & Strength:
Our Pelvic Floor has 4 main areas of muscle function:
💗 Support
💗 Sphincter Control
💗 Sexual Satisfaction
💗 Stability
The prenatal exercise we do to create a healthy pelvic floor during pregnancy and then the postpartum care we get after birth is SO important as it truly can impact our forever health.
Urinary incontinence & pain in the pelvis/hips is NOT normal! If you're experiencing this during pregnancy or postpartum, please reach out to a Physical Therapist that specializes in Women's Health 🙏🏽
I feel so strongly about teaching proper pelvic floor strengthening and that is why my Fit Pregnancy & Abs after Baby programs have videos with Michelle Little, Women's Health Physical Therapist
In Abs after Baby, Michelle goes into depth about postpartum health & what it looks like to get back to prebaby core strength!
Please don't ignore your pelvic pain or weakness - it CAN be corrected ⭐
