Season 1 Episode 92
In today's podcast episode I answer the question 'How do I relax my tight pelvic floor muscles?'
Like all muscles, we need them to function properly. If our muscles around our head/neck and shoulders are tight or overactive, we might be predisposed to head aches or neck pain.
Similarly, sometimes we want our pelvic floor muscles to be strong and activated, and at other times we need them to relax and release the tension in the muscles.
When do we need to relax our pelvic floor muscles?
Why do we need to relax our pelvic floor muscles?
It is important to relax for all of the above reasons (plus more).
Preparation for childbirth is also an important time to become aware of our pelvic floor muscles, and pelvic floor relaxation can work really well when combined with perineal massage.
*Please be sure to touch base with your healthcare provider if you have any questions or concerns around your pelvic floor muscles.
