How to exercise your pelvic floor?
We should exercise our pelvic floor regularly like any other muscle to maintain tone. Pelvic floor training is important at any age.
Exercise your pelvic floor regulary
“The famous pelvic floor” – you may have heard about it after pregnancy but a lot of women forget it again. However, after a few years, or during certain activities like sports, we suffer from urine leakage. The reason for that is often our weakened pelvic floor which causes urinary leaks.

Advice for a strong pelvic floor
Some easy hygienic and dietetic measures can accompany the pelvic floor care. Here are some:
A good alimentation
Avoid products that irritate the bladder (alcohol, tobacco…) and drinks that increase its activity (coffee, tea…).
Exercise regularly
Practice a physical activity regularly while preserving your pelvic floor. Choose soft activities when you get back into sports.
Don’t stop your pee midstream
This exercise was recommended in previous decades, but it is actually very bad (it favors urinary leaks).
Heels, pelvic floor’s n°1 enemy!
Wearing high heels modifies the global body balance because the whole body weight is applied to the tip of the feet. The lower back is arched, and the pelvis is off its axis, just like the pelvic floor. These posture modifications affect the strength of the pelvic floor that can lose elasticity. Don’t forget to walk barefoot regularly to re-balance your posture.
