✨ Your pelvic floor matters more than you think ✨“It’s the floor of your core.”
Everybody has one — not just women.
Your pelvic floor is a powerful group of muscles sitting at the base of your pelvis. It’s working for you all day, every day — supporting your organs, controlling your bladder and bowels, and even helping with spinal stability. You don’t have to think about it… but that doesn’t mean you should ignore it.
💬 Here’s the reality:
• 1 in 3 women experience urinary incontinence
• 1 in 10 experience faecal incontinence (and it’s often underreported)
• Around 50% of women over 50 have some degree of pelvic organ prolapse
This is even more the case across the cancer community - almost 70% of us get some issues, at some point.
And yet… we rarely talk about it. Because let’s be honest — bladders and bowels aren’t exactly “dinner table” topics. But they should be.
💡 Pelvic floor dysfunction can impact confidence, social life, movement, and overall quality of life — but the good news?
👉 It’s often preventable
👉 It’s treatable
👉 And strengthening these muscles is just like any other form of training
⏱️ Consistency is key:
Aim for 10 contractions, 3 times a day — but don’t overcomplicate it. Tie it to daily habits like brushing your teeth or making a cup of tea ☕
💪 Like all strength training, results take time. Most people start noticing real benefits after around 3 months — so stick with it!
