I'm going to say something that might ruffle a few feathers: kegels alone are not the answer.
After 19 years as a pelvic floor physio, and becoming a strength coach somewhere along the way, the most important thing I've learned is that your pelvic floor doesn't exist in isolation.
It responds to everything: how you breathe, how you stand, how you load one leg, how you move through your whole body under real demand.
So when someone comes to me with leaking, prolapse symptoms, or pressure they just can't shift, here's what we're actually looking at:
Posture, how load is distributed through your body before you even move.
Breathing, your diaphragm and pelvic floor work as a team, full stop.
Single leg strength, because almost everything functional happens on one leg.
Functional strength, because squats, hinges, carries and real load is where the magic happens.
All of this is built into every program at The StrongHER Physio. It's not an add-on, it's the whole foundation.
And honestly? The moment I started taking clients out of the clinical room and into the gym is when I started seeing their real change.
The links between functional strength and pelvic health are undeniable once you see them.
If you've been doing kegels for months and wondering why nothing's shifting, this is probably why.
Let's work together!

Did your glutes just disappear during pregnancy? You're not imagining it.
The postural changes that happen as your belly grows actually make your glutes less effective at doing their job, and their job is a big one.
Your glutes are a key part of supporting your pelvis, your pelvic girdle and your lower back.
So when they check out, everything else has to work harder.
This is why we prioritise glute strength in pregnancy AND postpartum, because a strong b***y is literally part of a supported body.
Whether you're growing a baby or recovering from birth, your glutes deserve some attention.

This is what most programs miss.
Isolated pelvic floor and core coordination is where we start, always.
But if we stop there, we are not preparing your body for your life.
Picking up your baby, carrying groceries, getting back to running or lifting. These are loaded movements. And your pelvic floor needs to be trained to handle that load, progressively, safely, with intention in your rehab program.
This is the difference between your isolated pelvic floor rehab and functional rehab.
Is your pelvic floor rehab taking you of the mat?
