After delivery, most women are told to “do Kegels,” which are exercises meant to strengthen a weak pelvic floor.
If strengthening is the best therapeutic option, the issue is that 51% of women do not perform a Kegel properly with verbal cueing alone, according to a recent research survey.
Sometimes, if a problem is stemming from tight pelvic floor muscles, strengthening can increase pelvic pain!
Is “doing Kegels” simple advise? Yes. Healing and helpful? Often not.
