Welcome back to Tales From the Floor, where we will be talking about all things pelvic floor physiotherapy! Today, my team of pelvic floor physiotherapists and I will be sharing our knowledge of the three P’s: pressure, prolapse, and painful intercourse! While 50 per cent of females will experience some form of pelvic floor prolapse, your pelvic floor should never be a painful or uncomfortable place and if you are experiencing any or all of these P’s, it’s time to see a pelvic physiotherapist!

In this episode, we’ll discuss the ins and outs of prolapse, why it’s happening, and what can be done about it. We’ll also analyze the difference between experiencing painful intercourse during your first time versus your second, third, or fourth time as well as vaginismus and other reasons why sex might be causing you pain. Last but not least, we’ll detail some of the things we can do to help you become more comfortable with penetrative intercourse. Keep listening to hear about the role pelvic physiotherapists can play in relieving your pelvic pressure, prolapse, and painful intercourse and join us on Facebook and Instagram at @talesfromthefloor and @abodyinmotionrehab.

Tales From the Floor is all about honest, raw, and upbeat conversations that are meant to educate, empower, and introduce you to your pelvic floor as well as the ones we visit on a regular basis. This podcast is for everyone: all genders, all ages, and all stages. No more whispering, it’s time to talk tales from the floor!
