Pelvic floor health is something many women don't think about until symptoms arise, yet it plays an important role throughout every stage of life. In todays episode I sit down with Pelvic Health Physiotherapist Danielle Ryan and explore what the pelvic floor is, the functions, and some of the most common causes and signs of pelvic floor dysfunction.
We also discuss the role of the pelvic floor during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum recovery, including how pregnancy impacts these muscles, ways to prepare for labour, and whether every woman could benefit from seeing a pelvic floor physiotherapist during pregnancy.
Danielle also provides an inside look at what actually happens during a pelvic floor assessment, helping to demystify a process that many women feel unsure about. This episode is full of practical education and empowering insights into an often-overlooked area of women's health.
