Next time you are peeing, count how long you "go." A healthy stream should last 8-14 seconds.
Pelvic Health and Awareness is a step by step program to improve your awareness and function of the pelvic floor. This program is an innovative approach that combines the latest in medical research about pelvic floor function, with the Feldenkrais Method of Somatic Education.
Developed by my Feldenkrais Trainer, Deborah Bowes, PT, these gentle exercises go beyond any existing pelvic floor training program. They are effective for improving bladder control, reducing back or pelvic pain, and recovering from childbirth, abdominal or prostate surgery or trauma. They are also useful for sexual functioning, digestive troubles and hip problems.
Equestrians, dancers and movement teachers will find immediate application in their own field.
This 6-lesson series will include brief talks on pelvic health, with floor and chair-based lessons appropriate for all adults.
