This guide was created to give women clear, practical, and reassuring information about pelvic floor health—without medical jargon, fear-based messaging, or pressure to “fix everything” on your own.
Inside, you’ll learn how the pelvic floor works, why symptoms like bladder leaks, pain, heaviness, constipation, or discomfort with sex happen, and how breath, posture, habits, stress, and life stages all play a role. You’ll also find gentle self-checks, simple exercises, and real-life strategies you can try—along with guidance on when it’s time to seek individualized care.
What’s inside:
An explanation of pelvic floor anatomy and function
Common symptoms and myths (and answers to them!)
Bladder and bowel health basics
Breath, posture, and nervous system support
Gentle relaxation and strengthening exercises
Guidance across life stages: pregnancy, postpartum, menstruation, menopause
How pelvic floor therapy works and when to seek help
Reflection pages to support awareness and next steps
Written by a pelvic health occupational therapist and designed to be supportive, practical, and easy to understand.
Please Note: This is not a workout program or a replacement for medical treatment. It’s an educational starting point designed to help you feel informed, empowered, and less alone in your symptoms.
