Description
This must-have guide explores the hidden world of pelvic floor health and gives you all the information you need to take control.
Let's face it, pelvic floor problems aren't sexy. But with 1 in 3 women showing pelvic health dysfunctions, such as incontinence, prolapse and pelvic pain, it's something we need to talk about.
Power Up Your Pelvic Floor is your go-to, trustworthy and supportive bible for all your concerns. Specialist pelvic health physiotherapist Suzanna Vernazza covers the essentials to empower you with clear, evidence-based information that everyone should know, but rarely does.
From how to do pelvic floor exercises properly or what to do if your exercises aren't working for you to pregnancy, periods and more, the book shows you that with the right support, you can stop the nuisance or even life-limiting scenarios that pelvic health issues can cause. Everyone deserves to have a happy and healthy pelvis!
