  • The whole podcast is an app and programme plug

    There are some nuggets of information but it got exhausting listening to the amount of plugs for her instagram, app and programmes.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ask Physio Kath- How do we know if we have issues with overactivity / tight pelvic floor?
Q: How long after giving birth should pelvic floor exercises be taken up to assist with tightening?
Pelvic floor exercises can help enhance sexual pleasure and reduce leaking, but it's important to focus on individualized assessment and support for postnatal health rather than solely tightening the vagina.
Ask Physio Kath- How do we know if we have issues with overactivity / tight pelvic floor?
Q: How do we know if we have issues with overactivity, tight pelvic floor muscles, and or should we be doing pelvic floor exercises?
Signs of pelvic floor overactivity might include constipation, painful intercourse, and difficulty using tampons. It's essential to have an assessment by a pelvic floor physiotherapist for accurate diagnosis and tailored advice.
