Connecting to Your Pelvic Floor
We have added a new Blog "7 Ways to Connect to Your Pelvic Floor" which you will find the link on the Right, under Recent Posts.
For Pregnant Mums to Be, or for those who have been pregnant before and now really know the importance of keeping your pelvic floor fitness going during this pregnancy, Preparing Your Pelvic Floor for Birth and Recovery helps you to really connect well to your muscles. And if you do have a problem, it will be easier to identify and sort out sooner. Waiting until after the birth to sort out your pelvic floor can mean it's a little harder to recovery, but it is still possible when you work at it.
