Pelvic pain, pressure, or that heavy “falling out” feeling? It may be related to a prolapse, and how you move throughout the day matters! 👇

When standing up from a chair, avoid arching your back and pushing pressure downward into your pelvic floor.

✅ Instead:🫁 Inhale and expand your rib cage⬇️ Let your pelvic floor relax and lengthen💨 Exhale as you gently engage your deep core and pelvic floor⬆️ Then stand up with control

This simple strategy can help manage symptoms, reduce pressure, and improve support for your pelvic organs throughout the day.

Remember: prolapse doesn’t mean you have to stop being active—it means learning how to manage pressure effectively. 💪

🚽 Peeing every hour? It may be common… but it’s NOT normal.

Sometimes frequent urination can be linked to a pelvic floor that’s too tight and overactive. We need to teach those muscles how to relax, not constantly stay “on.”

Try this:✨ Inhale through your nose✨ Let your rib cage expand wide✨ Exhale gently and let the rib cage fall back in

Take 5 slow breaths every hour and give your nervous system and pelvic floor a chance to calm down 💛
