Pelvic Floor Power Series: Why Does My Pelvic Floor Need Time on My Calendar Too?

Welcome to the Pelvic Floor Power podcast series! Listen as we talk with women and health care experts to discover the power of your pelvic floor, reduce leaks and restore confidence. We've all been there. You know going to the gym will make you feel better, feel stronger and improve your overall health. But what about when you have no motivation to go? If you skip the gym, does that mean you've failed? Definitely not. But you know keeping a regular workout schedule will only make it easier. Therapy for your mental health is the same way. You may not want to go but you know after your session you will feel that sense of relief that you got through it, and you're stronger for it. Pelvic floor muscle training is no different. It may be hard to take that first step, but once you get started, if you stick with it, you'll thank yourself later. You may think you don't have time to add another appointment to your calendar, but does anyone have time for urine leaks either? Let's talk about it. In this episode, Dr. Una Lee and Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist, Dr. Sara Reardon, talk about who benefits from pelvic floor muscle training, why starting early is important and how to overcome obstacles for keeping up with a schedule. So why does your pelvic floor need time on your calendar too? Keep listening to find out.
