Most people have heard of the pelvic floor.
Far fewer people know that it plays a huge role in s*xual function.
Your pelvic floor is involved in arousal, sensation, pe*******on and or**sm, but it's only one piece of a much bigger puzzle.
Hormones, your nervous system, stress levels, birth, surgery, scars, medications and past experiences can all influence how your body responds during intimacy.
That's why there's rarely a one size fits all answer.
If you've ever been told to ‘just do your kegels’ or that pain with s*x is normal after having a baby, getting older or having surgery, it's worth knowing there's a lot more to the conversation than that.
Internal Pelvic Release is about understanding how they're functioning and where you are holding tension, alongside everything else that's happening in your body.
Sometimes they need to relax.
Sometimes they need to get stronger.
Sometimes they're doing exactly what they've adapted to do, and we need to work out why.
You don't have to accept pain, reduced sensation or changes in intimacy as something you simply have to live with.
If this post made you think ‘That sounds a bit like me’ - I'd love to help.
Book in for an internal pelvic release and let's work out what's going on and what your next steps could look like!
