How to contract your Pelvic Floor & Core

The number one question I get asked from patients in the clinic/email/message is:

“Can you just teach me how to do pelvic floor exercises?”

Of course I can…but just learning how to do a pelvic floor contraction is not going to fix your problems. But it is the starting point. Relaxing is just as important and contracting these muscles.

I teach core and pelvic floor in lying - but from the video you will see this isn’t a function position. It is for training purposes only

 Remember: an individual assessment is a must to get the best cue for you, and also to check you are doing it right!
