How ANY Exercise Can Be a Pelvic Floor Exercise

In every other way we strengthen, our goal is to best mimic the real world challenge.  We do this in ortho, in sports-specific training.....so why not pelvic health?When starting to take introductory pelvic health classes, one thing left me confused - when are we doing volitional contractions in real life?  Sure, occasionally when we're really trying to hold back urine as we find a bathroom.But approaching pelvic health through an ortho lens, it never made sense to me why we wouldn't be trying to approximate the real life challenges our patients go through.I've always wanted to get patients up off the table.  Treat in a more functional manner.  Train towards the task they are having trouble with.(As a bonus - it's also a lot more fun for both us and the patient!!)It took me more than six years of teaching about this, training and organizing my thoughts to put out the Essential Pelvic Strengthening: Not Your Mama's Kegels course.  If you're interested in learning more about treating more functionally, check it out!Essential Pelvic Strengthening: Not Your Mama's Kegels courseNow open for Cohort 2 of the 'Not Your Mama's Kegels' course!  Get $50 off the course AND access to a LIVE Q&A when you register before March 17th.  More than 300 of you went through it in the first cohort, and it was a game-changer for so many of you in your clinical practice.  Check it out (www.pelvicptrising.com/kegels)!Business ResourcesIf you're starting or growing a cash-based pelvic health practice, we've got some great resources for you!  We've helped more than 200 practices take off in markets across the country.  From business courses, handouts and resources to true business mentorship in our Rising program, we've got something that can help.  Check out all our Business Resources (www.pelvicptrising.com/business) and fill out the Entrepreneur Survey there!About UsNicole and Jesse Cozean founded Pelvic PT Rising to provide clinical and business resources to physical therapists to change the way we treat pelvic health.   PelvicSanity Physical Therapy together in 2016.  It grew quickly into one of the largest cash-based physical therapy practices in the country.Through Pelvic PT Rising, Nicole has created clinical courses (www.pelvicptrising.com/clinical) to help pelvic health providers gain confidence in their skills and provide frameworks to get better patient outcomes.  Together, Jesse and Nicole have helped nearly 200 pelvic practices start and grow through the Pelvic PT Rising Mentorship Program (www.pelvicptrising.com/business) and business courses to change the way pelvic health is administered. Get in Touch!Learn more at www.pelvicptrising.com, follow Nicole @nicolecozeandpt (www.instagram.com/nicolecozeandpt) or reach out via email ([email protected]).Check out our Clinical Courses, Business Resources and learn more about us at Pelvic PT Rising...Let's Continue to Rise!
