6 Simple Ways to Improve your Pelvic floor health

February 28, 2023 Heather Josten LMT, CPT-RES

There are many things you can do in your daily life to help improve the function of your pelvic floor.

  1. Breathe deeply all day long. Holding your breath can create pressure and some Pelvic Floor Disfunction can be caused by pressure!! Try to relax your belly and breathe deeply into your rib cage. I like to practice this by wrapping my hands around my my lower ribs. When I breathe in, I press my ribs out in all directions and when I exhale I try to pull my ribs into a center post. Our ribs move and can help to create more space. It’s funny we never think about this.

  2. Do your feet hurt? Do you take care of your feet? Many people suffer with foot pain and do not realize how healthy feet help to create a healthy body. One of the first things you can do is get out of heeled shoes. I am a big fan of #minimalshoes. They have wide toe boxes to allow your toes to move, no heel; meaning the ball of your foot and your heel are on the same level. The sole are minimal shoes are also flexible allowing your feet to move more!!
