Hey there, welcome to the NorthStar Physical Therapy podcast!
I am your host, Dr. Shirlea North and I dive into lymphedema, lipedema, and various pelvic health dysfunctions. My goal is to provide to you a better way to understand these conditions so that you empower yourself with knowledge to advocate for yourself. Let NorthStar Physical Therapy guide and navigate you on your journey to optimal health!
Today’s episode will answer the question many of you might be wondering about: to Kegel or not to Kegel. A lot of people do not know what a Kegel is that’s why I want to educate you about what it is, how you might be overdoing it, and when a Kegel is appropriate to help with a pelvic floor symptom.
I hope that this episode helps you understand more about what you can do for your health when you are experiencing pelvic floor symptoms and realize that Kegel training isn’t always the answer for all the problems down there!
Let’s discuss:
- Introduction to today’s topic
- What is a Kegel?
- Overdoing Kegels: How I notice this with a lot of people
- Myths and truths about Kegel training
- What we should do as physical therapists during the assessment of the pelvic floor
- How and when Kegels become helpful and beneficial
- Kegel during urinating: Why you shouldn’t do it and the only time you should do it
- Conclusion
