Description

Ep 8: The Female Pelvic Floor – is yours working like it should?


ABOUT THIS EPISODE: 

You‘ve heard the words “pelvic floor,” yet do you know what it is and do you realize you actually have one? Like most body parts, if its working well you don’t think about it, yet if your pelvic floor is affected by disease, treatment, surgery or weakness it can be a huge quality of life issue!

In this episode we are talking about the female pelvic floor. Today on the show I bring you nationally respected pelvic floor specialist Erica Vitek.  We are going to describe the pelvic floor, where it is, what it does, how it can be impacted… and if it is, what you can do about it. Bladder leaking of any level is not normal, but it’s still pretty common. So if you have a pelvic floor (and you do) bottoms up, this is going to be a good one!
