Manage episode 515261470 series 3094575
Kegels are often prescribed as the go-to solution for bladder leaks and pelvic floor issues—but what if they’re not the magic fix we’ve been told they are?

From overactive or tight pelvic muscles to poor breathing patterns and posture, we explore the deeper reasons your pelvic floor might not be responding—and what actually helps instead. Tune in to learn the truth about pelvic floor strength, coordination, and why “just do your Kegels” isn’t always the right advice.
