What everybody ought to know about their pelvic floor health and pregnancy. . .

“Pelvic Floor retraining with a physiotherapist is recommended to prevent urinary incontinence during delivery and after pregnancy” American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists 2002

Being pregnant puts a lot of extra strain on your pelvic floor (the set of muscles between your legs), delivering your baby vaginally also stresses these muscles considerably. A less commonly known point is that dysfunction in the pelvic floor muscles in pregnant women is associated with pelvic pain. These muscles are therefore VERY IMPORTANT!!

Many women worry about their pelvic floor strength and want to ensure they maintain urinary continence and control of their pelvic floor, but most women are unsure of how to exercise their pelvic floor muscles or whether they are doing it correctly.

Pelvic floor re-education is considered almost mandatory in France where most women receive treatment post-natal as part of their state health entitlement - Physio for All at 40 Webbs Road SW11 have a great team of physios (some French) specialised in women' health and pelvic floor re-education. www.physio4all.com

I thoroughly recommend the team At Physio for All on Webbs Road! I run the MuTu Masterclass from there which complements any physio work you're doing perfectly... (as well as teaching you everything else you need to know about putting your midsection back together!)

Never feel you should have to 'just put up with' pelvic floor weakness, however many babies you've had or however long you had them!

The MuTu System & excellent physiotherapy can sort you out!
