Biofeedback: Is It Worth Your Time?

Is biofeedback really worth your time?Biofeedback has been a staple in pelvic therapy for years, but is it actually helping patients—or is it just another outdated tool that doesn’t deliver results?This is a replay of one of our most thought-provoking episodes! While I’m out on maternity leave, we’re bringing back some of the best conversations we’ve had over 500+ episodes.In this episode, Nicole shares her biggest frustrations with biofeedback, including:🚫 It focuses entirely on the pelvic floor and ignores the full-body system.🚫 It’s all about “strengthening”—but we know the pelvic floor is more than that.🚫 It rarely works properly (you’ve probably struggled with faulty readings too!).🚫 It’s internally inconsistent—the same person can get wildly different results.🚫 It isn’t functional—training isolated contractions doesn’t translate into real-life movement.We also break down the best arguments for and against biofeedback, looking at both sides of the debate.So what do you think—does biofeedback have a place in pelvic health? Or is it time to move on?
