5 hills I’ll die on as a pelvic floor PT 👇
Your pelvic floor does not exist in isolation.
Clenching your pelvic floor all day ≠ having a strong pelvic floor. Your pelvic floor needs to know how to contract, relax, lengthen, and coordinate with the rest of your body.
A “perfect” birth does not guarantee an easy postpartum recovery and a difficult birth does not mean you’re broken. Every body and every recovery is different.
Kegels are not the answer to every pelvic floor problem. Sometimes the answer is learning to relax, breathe, move, coordinate, or address what’s happening elsewhere in the body.
And yes… pelvic floor PTs are really good at treating hip pain. 👀 The hips, pelvis, core, breathing, and pelvic floor are all connected, so sometimes treating the hip means looking beyond the hip.
Basically: your symptoms deserve more than a one-size-fits-all approach.
Which one do you agree with most?
