Myth vs Fact Pelvic Floor edition!! Which one surprised you the most??
1. Leaks are common but are not normal and are treatable.
2. Contracting your muscles when needed is important but relaxation is as important. Not fully relaxing those muscles can lead to overactivity, pain, leakage and tension.
3. Although not mandatory, internal assessment is the best tool for your therapist to know what your pelvic floor muscles need.
4. Tight muscles often lead to muscle fatigue and decreased effectiveness of the muscle contraction.
5. Pelvic floor therapy can help you manage your prolapse with or without surgery. It’s important to learn what lead you there, and what are the good habits to take on to reduce any straining and pressure management issue, as well as having a functional PF and to support your pelvic organs.
