Myth: Constipation is just a GI issue.
Truth: Your pelvic floor would like a word. 💬

Constipation isn’t only about digestion—it puts mechanical stress on your pelvic floor. Straining during bowel movements increases intra-abdominal pressure, which can lead to or worsen pelvic floor dysfunction over time.

At Summus, we help patients understand how things like breath coordination and pelvic floor engagement play a vital role in keeping your whole system running smoothly. 🧠💪

Feeling stuck? (Literally or figuratively?) Let’s talk. 💙

Truth or Myth? Pelvic floor physical therapy only treats… the pelvic floor. 👀

TRUTH: It’s so much more than that. 🙌

At Summus, pelvic floor PT means looking at your whole body. That includes:
✨ Breathwork and pelvic floor coordination
✨ Core control and stability
✨ Hip, low back, and glute strength
✨ How everything moves together
Your pelvic floor doesn’t work in isolation—so we don’t treat it that way either. 💙

🚨 “Kegels will fix everything.”

Not always—and here’s why 👇

Yes, Kegels (a.k.a. pelvic floor contractions) can be an amazing tool—but only when done correctly and for the right issue.

If you have pelvic floor overactivity, trouble coordinating your breath with movement, or aren’t fully releasing between contractions...

👉 Kegels might actually make things worse.

Your pelvic floor is complex—and your treatment should be too.

💡 That’s why we recommend doing Kegels under the guidance of a pelvic floor physical therapist who can help you understand what your body needs.

🚫 Pelvic floor PT = Internal exam? Not always.

Here’s the truth 👉 You are always in control during pelvic floor physical therapy.

While internal exams can be helpful, they are never required.

✨ There are other effective, evidence-based ways to assess pelvic floor dysfunction—and your PT will walk you through every option, explaining the pros and cons so you can decide what feels right.

Because healing should never come at the cost of your comfort 💛
