Pelvic Floor Solutions

The pelvic floor makes up a significant piece of your body's core. The foundation for all movement, balance, stability and flexibility begins in the pelvis. It controls our lives by determining how comfortable we are with exercise, coughing, lifting, tampons, sexual intimacy and much more.

7/10 women have disorders of the pelvic floor, which supports the bones in the spine; structures the abdominal cavity; controls the passage of urine and stools; facilitates the childbirth process; and contributes to a woman's sexual pleasure.

In childbirth, the pelvic floor can become overstretched, lax, or torn, and the muscular hammock can no longer provide support, which may result in:

- Urinary incontinence
- Irritable bowel symptoms
- Constipation or incomplete bowel or bladder emptying
- Diminished sexual satisfaction
- Painful intercourse
- Inability to use tampons
- Sagging or prolapse of the uterus, bladder, or rectum
- Lower back or abdominal pain

Dr. Kegel discovered in the 1940's that you strengthen the vaginal muscles by resistance strength training, squeeze-and-hold vaginal exercises known as Kegels. What many of us don't realise is that Kegel's positive research was based on squeezing against resistance. To get the most out of these toning exercises, it is best to use a vaginal resistance device that provides the help needed to strengthen the pelvic muscles. Exercises should commence prior to childbirth and recommenced 6 weeks after birth.
