Start Here: The First Thing to Learn for Pelvic Organ Prolapse & Bladder Leakage

Welcome! 🤍 If you're experiencing pelvic organ prolapse, bladder leakage, or you're returning to exercise after pregnancy, this is the best place to start. Before strengthening your pelvic floor, it's important to understand how it works. In this video, I'll explain the role of the pelvic floor, why breathing and your pelvic floor are designed to work together, and how coordinated breathing helps manage pressure throughout your core and pelvic floor. Learning this foundation can help: • Improve pressure management • Reduce unnecessary straining • Support your pelvic organs during movement • Improve pelvic floor strength & coordination • Reduce bladder and bowel leakage & urgency symptoms This breathing strategy is something I teach almost every woman I see in the clinic because it creates the foundation for safe, effective movement. Once you've completed this video, you're ready to begin the workouts in the Start Here playlist. Start with the foundational breathing and coordination exercises, then progress to beginner strengthening workouts as you feel ready.
