Quick question, how much do you know about your pelvic floor?
Did you know the pelvic floor can be weak or tight, or a combination of both? Did you know that Kegels are not always the answer? Did you know that pain with sex, urine leakage with coughing or sneezing and constantly running to the bathroom are NOT normal?
According to Memorial Hermann, pelvic floor disorder (PFD) is a fairly common condition that affects both men and women of all ages. Unfortunately, it is vastly undertreated, leaving millions to struggle with life altering symptoms that can be addressed with appropriate medical treatment.
One in five people will suffer from a pelvic floor disorder during their lifetime. In fact, one-third of all women and 50 percent of women over the age of 55 are currently affected by a pelvic floor disorder.
Dr. Mandy Johnson, DPT, of FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Center specializes in pelvic floor physical therapy and is a 200hr Registered Yoga Teacher.
Things you’ll learn in this workshop:
- Simple anatomy
- Types of pelvic floor dysfunction
- Breath and the relationship to the pelvic floor
- Why Kegels are never always the answer
- How yoga can help support pelvic health
Class will be held at the Transitions Yoga Mandan location inside Balancing Goat at 2705 Sunset Dr, Mandan
