Pelvic Floor Health

What is your pelvic floor? Where is it?

Did you know there are many different layers in the pelvis and they all can be trained?

When most people talk about the pelvic floor they mean the pelvic diaphragm, aka Lavator Ani muscles. But there is so much more to it.

You have multiple layers of fascia and muscles that create a complex support system, dealing with holding organs in but also letting go to eliminate and having babies. So it needs to be strong and hold but also being able to let go and be soft. Kudos to the pelvic floor to be able to do that!

Usually we don’t ever think about the Pelvic Floor unless we start to have some disfunction, like a leaky bladder or prolapse (when the pelvis floor doesn’t hold the organs in anymore) or when we have pain down there.

Your Pelvic floor health is an integral part of vitality.

Ever wondered what a Kegel excercise really is? Or why should you care about it? What even is the pelvic floor?

Exploring the pelvis, feeling the bone rhythms of the hip, the muscles and ligaments and the layers of the pelvic floor can greatly improve its function

Learning how everything moves together and interconnects with the rest of your body. For instance, every breath you take influences it.

Try to cough and see what your pelvic floor is doing? Did you feel it? It engaged to uphold the pressure in your abdomen. It is even inter-connected with core strength and low back issues.

Seems like it’s pretty important!

Understanding the layers is crucial to maintaining its strength, function and flexibility.

In my pelvis floor course we get to learn all the different layers and how to move and improve them.
