These and other symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction are common, but they're not \"normal\" and certainly aren't optimal. While these quality-of-life-impacting symptoms are frequently attributed to other causes and are often approached with surgeries and prescriptions, many could be easily remedied with daily deep squats! In this episode of the Body Wisdom Podcast, host Jamie Belz sits down with pelvic floor physical therapist Dr. Ashley Zimmerman to talk about the surprising ways pelvic floor health impacts bladder control, constipation, digestion, sexual health, core stability, hip and back pain, athletic performance, postpartum recovery, breathing, and overall quality of life. From leaking when you sneeze or jump, to painful sex, erectile dysfunction, prolapse, diastasis recti, chronic constipation, ankle instability, and feeling disconnected from your body, Dr. Ashley explains why the pelvic floor is one of the most under-recognized foundations of health. She also shares simple, practical ways to begin supporting pelvic floor function, including deep squats, diaphragmatic breathing, better bathroom posture, movement throughout the day, and working with a pelvic floor physical therapist. This conversation is honest, educational, and empowering for women, men, postpartum moms, athletes, and anyone who has been told their symptoms are \"just part of aging,\" \"just what happens after having kids,\" or something they simply have to live with.
