new year is the perfect time to refocus on the basics, starting from the ground up.

Your feet are your foundation. How they contact the floor, absorb force, and support your body influences everything above them—including your hips, core, and pelvic floor.

When foot strength, mobility, or alignment is lacking, the pelvic floor often compensates. This can contribute to issues like pelvic tension, leakage, pressure, or pain—especially during standing, walking, lifting, or exercise.

A ground-up approach to pelvic health includes:
✨ Improving foot strength and awareness
✨ Restoring ankle and calf mobility
✨ Creating better alignment through the legs and hips
✨ Supporting efficient pressure management
✨ Reducing unnecessary gripping through the pelvic floor

Pelvic floor health isn’t just about the pelvis. It’s about how your entire body works together—from your feet to your breath.

This year, skip the quick fixes.
Build a strong, supportive foundation so your pelvic floor doesn’t have to work overtime.

Holiday hustle? Your pelvic floor still needs attention.
Between travel, lifted suitcases, long car rides, altered routines, rich foods, and higher stress levels, the pelvic floor often takes the hit this time of year.

You might notice:
✨ More pelvic pressure or heaviness
✨ Constipation or bloating from schedule changes
✨ Increased urinary urgency/frequency
✨ Tension from stress and poor sleep
✨ Low back or hip discomfort from travel and carrying more than usual

The holidays may be busy, but your body still needs consistency.
A few simple habits can make a big difference:
✔ Stay hydrated (even with all the festive drinks)
✔ Keep up with gentle movement and stretching
✔ Breathe intentionally—your diaphragm and pelvic floor work as a team
✔ Don’t ignore bathroom urges or change your normal patterns
✔ Prioritize rest when you can

Your pelvic floor doesn’t take a holiday—so give it a little extra care as you navigate the holiday chaos. Your body will thank you in January. 🎄✨
