What is this nonsense about a pelvic floor?

Do you know that everyone has a pelvic floor? What the heck even is that? Well, our pelvic floor is the group of muscles at the base of the pelvis/torso.

They are in charge of: 

✨peeing

✨pooping

✨posture

✨positioning 

✨sex

✨stability 

There are actually a lot of things that can happen that can give you pain and problems “down there”.

Some people have leakage, pain with sex, difficulty sitting, a sensation of heaviness, straining with pooping, constipation, or many other things. 

Because this area of the body is something so “out of sight”, it can definitely become “out of mind”. Also, it can often feel straight up embarrassing and awkward to bring up any questions or concerns. And we have so few opportunities to get a clear idea of what “normal” is!

Although many of us are told: do Kegels! Did you know that not everyone knows how to do a Kegel correctly? And, furthermore, Kegels might actually do you more harm then good!
