Kegels aren’t for everyone!
Pelvic floor muscle training is helpful when weakness is present, but research shows many pelvic floor conditions involve muscle overactivity or poor relaxation, not just weakness.
In these cases, strengthening alone can worsen pain and pelvic symptoms.
Evidence-based pelvic floor PT starts with an individual assessment to determine whether the pelvic floor needs relaxation, coordination, or strengthening.
Come see us at Stability Pilates and Physical Therapy for an individualized assessment with our Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist!
