💗 Living in Palm Beach and doing Kegels. Read this first.
Kegels are often recommended for many things pelvic health especially when postpartum or perimenopause — but they are not just about squeezing and holding.
Two things many women miss when doing Kegels at home:
✔️ Proper breathing and pressure control.
Holding your breath during Kegels can actually increase pressure downward and make symptoms like leaking and prolapse symptoms worse.
✔️ Fully relaxing the pelvic floor between contractions. These muscles need to rest just as much as the work, sometimes more 😊
If Kegels feel confusing, uncomfortable, or just aren’t helping, that’s a sign your body needs a more individualized approach. If you live in Palm Beach County, check me out at The Right Balance where we perfect your Kegels and so much more.
