Did you know that the pelvic floor plays a vital role in the body's well-being, not only for women but for men as well? Why do misconceptions about pelvic floor issues persist, and why should they be addressed promptly? What are the ways to tackle common men's health issues connected with the pelvic floor?

 

Welcome to the Empower Your Pelvis Podcast, where this week's fascinating episode features Dr. Amanda Fisher in an invigorating crossover conversation from the Owning Your Sexual Self Podcast with the inspiring sex and relationship coach, Rachel Maine. Rachel's journey traces back to her beginnings in sexual education, leading her to seek a certificate in sex therapy and sexuality education. Today, she owns the successful podcast, Owning Your Sexual Self, and stands as the CEO of her online sex coaching business, Wellness Sexpertise, working with people from all walks of life to rediscover sexual desires and create cherished, adventurous connections. 

 

In this episode, Amanda and Rachel explore the world of the pelvic floor and its unsuspected link to overall health, movement, and function. The spotlight is turned on men's health, illuminating particular issues they face  like the broad functions of the pelvic floor – from supporting sexual functions to its link with your vocal cords, they debunk widely perpetuated myths about the pelvic floor. 

 

They  will touch on such topics as:  

  • Impact of Tight or Weak Pelvic Floor: Symptoms of a tight or weak pelvic floor can be experienced by both men and women.
  • The lifestyle factors that might trigger the pain and tightness of your pelvic floor. 
  • Key insights from a sexual health conference, including the correlation between spine issues and testicular pain, which aligns with the pelvic floor PT approach.
  • What is premature ejaculation? How PT exercises like mobility, cat cow, and diaphragmatic breathing help manage it.
  • The importance of therapy and stress management in handling issues related to the pelvic floor.
  • Even if most ED related issues are mental, it is essential to get the physical side checked.
  • Tips for finding a good pelvic floor PT: using resources like APTA (American Physical Therapy Association), pelvicguru.com, or local Google searches.
