Not everyone needs to hold their pelvic floor for 10 seconds at every traffic light and we have so many reasons why, so buckle in.

1. Some people have an overactive pelvic floor meaning the muscles are too tight/tense. Contrary to popular belief, this does not mean they are strong nor weak. It means they are not working through a good range and are therefore not functional. In this case it is more beneficial to learn how to first relax your pelvic floor.

2. Pelvic floor exercises should be personalised just like every other exercise program. This ensures you are getting the most out of these exercises. The key is to challenge the muscles to the point of fatigue but not past that. You also want your pelvic floor contraction to be optimal i.e. good technique.

3. Some people have a strong pelvic floor but poor endurance - so doing 10 repetitions of 1 second isn’t going to work.

The key really is a personalised approach. If you have never had your pelvic floor assessed - prevention is the key so pop in and see one of our fantastic pelvic physios to assist you.

Have you booked your postnatal physiotherapy check?

The ideal time for a postnatal review is 6-8 weeks postpartum, but in all honesty, it’s never too late for a pelvic floor check! We see women 6-12 months following birth who want a check up (because let’s face it life is busy with a newborn) 👩🏼‍🍼

A typical post natal review involves:
- Discussion regarding your birth, mode of delivery (vaginal versus cesarean), specifics for vaginal delivery (tearing, episiotomy, forceps, length of active pushing), specifics for cesarean (emergency versus planned), baby weight
- Bladder and bowel function (during pregnancy and following birth)
- Breastfeeding
- Scar management (cesarean and perineum)
- Abdominal assessment to determine any ongoing abdominal separation
- Pelvic floor muscle assessment (either by ultrasound or internal vaginal examination - your physio chats you through both options)
- Return back to exercise, running and sport and pacing you through a safe return to these activities.

It’s never too late to touch base with a pelvic health Physio! 🙋🏽‍♀️

Ever wonder why incontinence happens during pregnancy? Your pregnancy hormones play a big role.

1️⃣ Progesterone
2️⃣ Relaxin

The first, progesterone, is produced by the ovaries, placenta and adrenal glands and is most present at early pregnancy 🤰. It helps to promote embryo implantation and uterine growth, and keeps the uterus relaxed to prevent premature contractions.
Relaxin also helps embryo implantation and aids in placenta growth in early pregnancy. It also promotes softening and widening of the cervix and rupture of membranes in late pregnancy.

Progesterone & relaxin work together to prepare the body for childbirth by softening and lengthening the pelvic ligaments and muscle.

☹️The downfall? There is subsequently less support to our pelvic organs and our pelvic floor doesn’t function as well when it’s very lengthened. This can result in incontinence especially when coughing, sneezing or for lots of mums, vomiting. There can also be increased feelings of vaginal or pelvic heaviness and pressure.

🙂The solution? Start your pelvic floor exercises ASAP. Get assessed by your local pelvic health physio and get prescribed an individualised pelvic floor program so you can keep your pelvic floor muscle strong during pregnancy.
