The pelvic floor TikTok trend - what you need to know.

As a physiotherapist specialising in pregnancy, postpartum recovery, and pelvic floor health, I’m a huge advocate for pelvic floor exercises— I love them, I live them, and I quite literally breathe them (haha!). 

But, with so much information online, it’s important to ask: Are pelvic floor exercises right for everyone?

In this episode, I dive into:

• The benefits of pelvic floor exercises in reducing the risk of incontinence and pelvic health issues
• Why traditional pelvic floor strengthening might NOT be appropriate for some women
• How factors like overactive pelvic floor, anxiety, athletic training, and birth trauma need to be considered
• My gold standard approach to pelvic floor recovery—before, during, and after pregnancy

What does an ideal pelvic floor care plan look like?
✅ 33/34 weeks pregnant – Pelvic floor assessment + birth prep
✅ 2 weeks postpartum – Telehealth check-in
✅ 6 weeks postpartum – Full pelvic floor assessment
✅ Beyond 6 weeks – Individualized return-to-exercise plan based on birth recovery

After working with hundreds (if not thousands) of women, I know first-hand that one size does NOT fit all when it comes to pelvic floor health.

Tune in to learn how to best support your body during pregnancy and postpartum—without falling into the “one-size-fits-all” trap!
