One of the biggest reasons so many women don’t get their incontinence or prolapses checked is that they’re scared of what’s going to happen in the consultation room.
But with a stat as high as 50% of women facing pelvic floor problems after pregnancy… We need to bust that myth immediately.
Joining me on today’s episode is the incredible LJ Hargreaves, an Osteopath with over 11 years experience transforming people’s health. However, since having kids, LJ has taken a special interest in women’s health - dedicating her time to helping women stay strong through pregnancy and beyond.
LJ and I sit down on the couch to talk all about what you need to know going into pregnancy to keep your pelvic floor as strong as you can, how to recover post-pregnancy and even why elite athletes have to deal with it too!
Pelvic floor symptoms are common, but not normal. Don’t let it be the reason you’re not able to live your life how you want.
We’re covering so much in this episode including:
💛 Why kegels aren’t doing anything to help your pelvic floor
💛 The most common symptoms of a poor pelvic floor
💛 Busting myths about not being allowed to exercise while you’re pregnant
💛 Exactly what happens in a consulting room so that you know what you’re getting yourself into
