Are you struggling with pelvic organ prolapse? Can't figure out if it's weak muscles or tightness causing havoc? What are the five essential functional movements every individual must master for a healthy pelvic floor, and why are they vital to your overall well-being?

 

In this week’s Empower Your Pelvis Podcast, our host, Dr. Amanda Fisher goes solo to deep dive into a common issue confronting many patients - pelvic organ prolapse. With her guidance and knowledge as a pelvic floor therapist, she will properly discuss how to help you understand the five functional movements and their relation to the pelvic floor.  

 

She will touch on such topics as:  

  • The major issue with your pelvic floor prolapse: Is it because it’s weak or is it too strong and tight muscles with poor coordination? 
  • What is a cystocele? 
  • The five functional movements: Squatting, Hinging, Carrying, Pushing, and Pulling. 
  • The importance of evaluating patients in standing and functional positions.  
  • How weight impacts the pelvic floor from lifting children to carrying groceries or heavy farm feed. 
  • The vital connection between the back of the pelvic floor and the back of the mouth.
  • Relaxation techniques that can help keep the pelvic floor area relaxed.
