This a very special edition dedicated to women - the theme for International Women's day 2024 was #inspireinclusion. I have dedicated this to a sometimes, 'not so hidden but hideable' medical problem that occurs in women.
On this episode get ready to learn why the pelvic muscle is a muscle after all that needs to be serviced and oiled at all phases of life.
What if I told you that pelvic floor weakness is not just about having children, but it can affect women of all ages and have a significant impact on quality of life? The truth about pelvic floor health may surprise you.
