Strengthening Your Foundation: Pelvic Floor 101

She Found Motherhood Podcast

As we've often said, education is a form of healthcare. When it comes to your pelvic health, the more you understand about the physiology of the area and the changes that occur during pregnancy and childbirth, the more empowered you’ll feel.

Today, we’re speaking with Aliya Dhalla, a Pelvic Health Physiotherapist, about the basic structure of the pelvic floor, how it changes during pregnancy, and how and when a physiotherapist can be helpful - even through remote consultations that equip you with the tools and knowledge to understand and heal your own body. You can learn more about Aliya’s work at boxwellness.co and follow her on Instagram at @boxwellnessco.
