So, what even is the pelvic floor anyway?
Our lady bits, mula bhanda, space between your legs, woohoo, privates, place that you wee from.
These are all names for the pelvic floor I have heard in different classes over the years, but none of them are very helpful if we can’t actually visualise and name the anatomy of the body.
Every single one of us has a pelvic floor, and most of us have a vague idea that we should be doing something to keep them healthy. But we’ve got so many things to do it’s easy for it to slip down, and then off our list. Only coming to the surface when something goes wrong, or somebody brings it up ( hi it’s me, forever bringing it up).
This video is a whistle stop tour of the anatomy of the pelvic floor so that you can have an idea of what exactly the pelvic floor is and it’s function which hopefully will make the exercises a bit easier.
Also it’s just really interesting,
Enjoy!
