🏃♀️ Moving your body is one of the best things you can do for your health. But what happens when exercise itself becomes the problem?
📖Research from Monash University found that nearly 1 in 2 Australian women with pelvic floor symptoms stop exercising altogether because of the uncomfortable and often embarrassing symptoms. Things like; leakage, heaviness, or urgency (feeling that you aren’t able to hold it) are quietly keeping women sidelined, off the court, out of the gym, and away from doing the things they love.
🤔Here’s the thing: it’s common, but it’s not normal. And it’s very treatable.
💪🏼🍑Your pelvic floor is a group of muscles that work hard during exercise — absorbing impact, supporting your organs, and helping with continence. When those muscles aren’t functioning well (whether they’re weak, tight), exercise can aggravate symptoms.
A women’s health Physio doesn’t just give you a Kegel handout. They assess how your pelvic floor is actually functioning & build a program tailored to your body, your sport, and your goals — so you can keep moving without compromise.
🏃🏽♀️You don’t have to stop. You don’t have to just manage it. You can get real answers & support.
