In today's episode, we discuss common pelvic floor issues and symptoms such as urinary leakage, tailbone pain, frequent restroom breaks, pain during intercourse, constipation, and how to treat them correctly. Dr. Bailey is a physical therapist and functional medicine practitioner specializing in pelvic floor physical therapy. She earned a B.Sc. in Kinesiology from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and a Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Washington University at St. Louis School of Medicine. Dr. Bailey has been practicing for twelve years and is the owner of 360 Health & Wellness Services, a clinic that believes health is full-circle. If you want to discover more about pelvic floor dysfunction, check the key takeaways of this episode or the transcript below. Key Takeaways: 1. What is the Pelvic Floor? The pelvis is an area of our body located between the trunk and the legs, while the pelvic cavity runs from the pubic bone to the tailbone. Inside the pelvic cavity, we have different organs, nerves, arteries, and muscles. The bottom part of the pelvic cavity is considered the pelvic floor, which is a layer of muscles that help support these internal structures. The pelvic floor has three main functions: to help support internal organs, to help maintain continence, and to aid in sexual pleasure. 2. What Are Some Pelvic Floor Health Symptoms? Some of the most common pelvic floor symptoms include urine leakage, frequent restroom breaks, pain during sex, tailbone pain, constipation, and diarrhea. 3. Does Kegel Help With Pelvic Floor Health? Kegal is basically a contraction of your pelvic floor muscles that helps strengthen them. However, people need to learn to do them effectively. Some people may have an overactive pelvic floor, which can actually result in kegel worsening the issue.

More than twenty-five million people in the U.S. experience bladder leakage every day and while the problem is more common in women, millions of men also confront this challenge. Unfortunately, says Vanita Gaglani, support for men dealing with this issue is lacking, especially after prostate surgery. “Men have been ignored and they have an equal problem. They don't know who to go to. There is no structure. There are no guidelines for them to follow.” Gaglani recognized this gap not long after starting her physical therapy practice in Melbourne, Florida thirty years ago, and now 90% of her patients are men. In that time, she's treated thousands of people with a multipronged approach that resolves incontinence issues in a matter of weeks. “Kegels are not the end-all, be-all treatment. We have to have a complete approach,” she says, which includes nutrition, understanding body mechanics and lifestyle changes. Gaglani has detailed her protocol in a new book: Life After Prostate Cancer and Other Urological Surgeries: A Step-by-Step Guide to Stop Urinary Leakage in Ten Weeks, which is a follow-up to an earlier book that was geared more to an older population. Don't miss this deeply informative conversation about the special characteristics of the bladder, insights on how men approach medical treatments, and advice about helping patients overcome reluctance to speaking about embarrassing issues.

Women and men experiencing pelvic pain often suffer in silence. Dr Jane Chalmers is an expert on pelvic pain and hopes we can open the conversation and raise awareness.Jane and I chat about the causes of pelvic pain, interventions and treatment options, and we delve into an area she is passionate about - women’s health.Our discussion encompasses; endometriosis, vulvodynia, period pain, the pelvic floor, the importance of Kegel exercises with a few examples, and Krumping (I had no idea what that was either!)To end on a positive note, Jane and I discuss the female orgasm.SOME MEDICAL TERMS USEDEndometriosis - a condition in which bits of the tissue similar to the lining of the uterus (endometrium) grow in other parts of the body. Like the uterine lining, this tissue builds up and sheds in response to monthly hormonal cycles. However, there is no natural outlet for the blood discarded from these implants. Instead, it falls onto surrounding organs, causing swelling and inflammation.Laparoscopy - examination of the interior of the abdomen using a laparoscope (a type of endoscope).Prostatitis - inflammation of the prostate gland.Vulvodynia - chronic pain of the vulva, the external or visible region of the female genitalia, in the absence of vulvar or vaginal infection or skin disease.LINKS MENTIONED IN THE PODCASTDr Jane Chalmers, University of SA: https://people.unisa.edu.au/Jane.ChalmersJane's Twitter handle @KJaneChalmersPelvic Pain Foundation of Australia: https://www.pelvicpain.org.au/?v=ef10366317f4 Endometriosis Australia: https://www.endometriosisaustralia.orgEndoActive: https://endoactive.org.auHOW YOU CAN SUPPORT THE PODCASTPlease tell your friends about the podcast and share it with them.Follow me on Instagram @vibrant_lives_podcastFollow my Facebook page: @vibrantlivespodcastIf you could rate and review the podcast on iTunes, that would be super helpful.Purchasing a book from my website is an easy way to support the podcast too.

In this episode of Michelle's series on pelvic health Lindsey Kaupp, Occupational Therapist explains what painful sex is, what can be done to alleviate or change that, and what is normal versus common and what that difference really is. Together they stress why creating psychological safety is the very first step of addressing painful sex. Lindsey shares red flags to look for that alert someone when to seek out the help of a pelvic floor therapist. "So my very first step, it doesn't matter what client I'm working with, any of the conditions or if it is just a single or a couple of isolated incidents of painful sex, we talk about psychological safety. Until we have psychological safety, we do not have the opportunity to go further. Because our brain is going to still perceive a threat."—Lindsey Kaupp Medical Terms:Dyspareunia is the term for recurring pain in the genital area or within the pelvis during sexual intercourse. The pain can be sharp or intense. It can occur before, during, or after sexual intercourse.Endometriosis is an often painful disorder in which tissue similar to the tissue that normally lines the inside of the uterus — the endometrium — grows outside the uterus. Endometriosis most commonly involves the ovaries, fallopian tubes and the tissue lining the pelvis.Adenomyosis is a condition in which endometrial tissue exists within and grows into the uterine wall. It occurs most often late in the childbearing years and typically disappears after menopause. Sometimes, adenomyosis may cause heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding, severe cramping, pain during intercourse, or blood clots that pass during a period.Vulvodynia is chronic, unexplained pain in the area around the opening of the vagina. It can be so uncomfortable that some activities can feel unbearable, such as sitting for long periods of time or having sex.Vestibulodynia refers to pain in the entrance of the vagina, known as the vestibule. This is the area where the outside portion of a woman's genitals (the vulva) meets the internal portion (the vagina). The vestibule contains glands that provide vaginal lubrication during sexual arousal. For a woman with generalized vestibulodynia, the pain is constant. A woman with provoked vestibulodynia (PVD) has pain when the area is touched. This may occur when she inserts a tampon, has a pelvic exam with her gynecologist, or engages in sexual activity. Pain intensity and type can vary from woman to woman. The area may be sore or tender when touched. There might be a sharp or burning pain. Some women are able to have intercourse. For others, the pain is too severe.Vaginismus is a condition involving a muscle spasm in the pelvic floor muscles. It can make it painful, difficult, or impossible to have sexual intercourse, to undergo a gynecological exam, and to insert a tampon.Interstitial cystitis is a chronic condition causing bladder pressure, bladder pain, and sometimes pelvic pain. The pain ranges from mild discomfort to severe pain. The condition is a part of a spectrum of diseases known as painful bladder syndrome. Resources:https://www.nva.org/what-is-vulvodynia/ Books:  "Better Sex through Mindfulness" by Lori Brotto"Come as You Are" by Emily Nagoski, PhD "Reviving Your Sex Life After Childbirth" by Kathe WallaceProducts:YESOlive & BeeGood Clean LoveOHNUT About Lindsey Kaupp: Lindsey Kaupp is a registered occupational therapist residing in Alberta, Canada.

In this episode of Michelle's series on pelvic health, Lindsey Kaupp, OT shares the whole person approach that a pelvic health occupational therapist takes. Together they discuss stigmas that surround mental health, pain, sex, and pelvic health, as well as the documented correlation between depression &/or anxiety and pelvic floor function. Lindsey explains the five functions of the pelvic floor, how the pelvic floor is a factor in lower back pain, and the impacts of chronic pelvic pain, especially as it impacts our ability to function as a mother. They stress the importance of making certain to replenish and nourish yourself as a parent. "In my opinion, if your menstrual cramps are enough that you're taking more than 1 Tylenol or a small piece of medication, even that, we need to look at ‘why is that?'. That is not normal, it's common. So some cramping is okay, but past that, we want to really look at this is really impacting your life."—Lindsey KauppAbout Lindsey Kaupp: Lindsey Kaupp is a registered occupational therapist residing in Alberta, Canada.

In this next episode in the pelvic floor health series, Melissa Schubert, PT shares with Michelle the wisdom and energy of our pelvic bowl. Melissa explains how emotions, traumas, and limiting beliefs get stored in our tissues, as well as the mapping system within our pelvic bowl that allows for the release of the energy and emotions held there. She explains that when the flow of birth is interrupted it can create a disrupted birthing pattern that the tissues can be holding onto. Melissa stresses the importance of connecting with our bodies once again because our pelvic space is the root of our creativity, love, and connection which allows us to flourish. "As I listen, if I am not getting the response in the tissues, then I know that we're not getting to the root of what is emotionally stuck in that tissue."—Melissa Schubert Resources:Tami Lynn Kent, MSPThttps://www.wildfeminine.com/ Connect with Melissa Schubert:Be sure to visit Melissa's website to gain access to her 5-minute Pelvic bowl meditation to start your journey to realizing the creative, loving, and the connected person you are meant to be. Website: https://www.thebalancedpelvis.com/Facebook: @MelissaSchubertPTInstagram: @melissaschubertpt About Melissa Schubert, PT: Melissa has been a physical therapist in the Orlando area for over 20 years and has specialized as a pelvic physical therapist for the past 10 years and is the owner of The Balanced Pelvis. She believes that ALL women deserve special care during their pregnancy and after. As a pelvic physical therapist, she provided relief from pelvic joint or sacro-iliac joint (SIJ) dysfunction and pain with the use of Hesch Method Manual Therapy. Many times the cause of pain or dysfunction is not the location of pain and only treating the location of pain will quite often only give temporary relief.More recently, her approach to care for moms during pregnancy and after has changed to a much more holistic approach.  She is working to become a certified specialist from the Birth Healing Institute.  This approach works to alleviate pain and dysfunction that may be holding a person back by addressing the concerns from a body, mind, and spirit approach. This approach looks first at past trauma or injury for the cause of pain or dysfunction held in the tissues.  By addressing trauma held in the tissues first, it quite often will determine the root cause of pain or dysfunction.  Once this is addressed, then treatment may progress with a graded exposure.  By addressing past trauma held in the tissues first, the number of graded exposure sessions is reduced.  

Melissa Schubert, PT further explains our deep core system, especially as it relates to the pelvic floor and our breath. She also answers all of Michelle's many long-time questions regarding kegel exercises and the pelvic floor. Melissa shares why it can be difficult to teach kegel exercises in a generic versus individualized manner and why learning to relax the pelvic floor is just as important, if not more so, than building strength. They also discuss why belly binding can cause more harm than good if not done properly. "Relaxing the muscles are, I'll say, equaling if not more important than contracting them for many of us. We find a lot of holding pattern in the pelvic floor and it's for different reasons. … And then trying to get a muscle group that is able to fully relax and fully contract, that's the ideal for a good functioning pelvic floor. So many times we really are working on what I consider the reverse kegel, is being able to get the pelvic floor to relax."—Melissa Schubert About Melissa Schubert, PT:Melissa has been a physical therapist in the Orlando area for over 20 years and has specialized as a pelvic physical therapist for the past 10 years and is the owner of The Balanced Pelvis.

To begin her series on the pelvic floor, Michelle re-airs this information packed conversation with Lynn Schulte, founder of The Institute for Birth Healing, regarding the ways pelvic health can enhance our body's ability to give birth and heal postpartum. Lynn explains the physical mechanics of the pelvic joints, the pelvic bones, and pelvic floor muscles and how they are meant to work together for birth. Lynn shares why she doesn't recommend doing lots of kegel exercises during pregnancy to prepare for birth, why coached “purple pushing” during birth is really counterintuitive to releasing the baby, and how the vocalizations in birth help relax the pelvic floor. She explains why the issues are in our tissues and how healing can occur swiftly when we listen to the patterns held within the pelvis. Lynn also shares about her yearly Birth Healing Summit which is a free online event for birth professionals. “...A lot of what we bring in our body to the pregnancy and to the birth can influence that birth. So there's pre-existing things that a person might be carrying in their body that can influence whether or not that birth is going to go really smoothly or it's gonna be more challenging.”—Lynn Schulte About Lynn Schulte:Lynn Schulte, BSPT, is a Women's Health Physical Therapist with over 30 years' experience and is the founder of the Institute for Birth Healing. She has been helping moms heal from all the multitude of issues women experience after birth and is now teaching courses to bodyworkers to help them do the same. She found a common birth pattern that shows up in the pelvis after birth and knows how to effectively release these patterns.She offers a certification process to help birth professionals to become Birth Healing Specialists. Connect with Lynne Schulte:Website: https://www.instituteforbirthhealing.comFacebook:  @InstituteforBirthHealing YouTube: Institute for Birth Healing - Lynn Schulte, PTInstagram: @Instituteforbirthhealing  Central Florida Birth Healing Specialist:https://www.thebalancedpelvis.com/ Connect with Michelle Smith:Website:  BirthEaseServices.comFacebook:   Birth Ease,   The Birth Ease Podcast,  Birth Ease Baby Loss SupportInstagram:    @birtheasemichellesmith,  @birtheaselossssupportYouTube:    Birth EaseLinkedIn:  Birth Ease Michelle SmithPinterest:  Birth EaseShow:  Birth Ease

 In today's episode I've chosen to talk about post prostatectomy incontinence and how to do a Kegel or pelvic floor exercise to strengthen the pelvic floor in order to correct post prostatectomy incontinence. I've chosen this topic because I recently gave a talk to patients who are about to have a prostate removal for prostate cancer. At Metro Urology, we do a class for men who are about to get treatment for prostate cancer, most commonly removal of the prostate with a daVinci robotic prostatectomy. Today we are talking about just one portion of that class—the portion where we talk about the male “pelvic floor”, incontinence and Kegel exercises. I've recorded voiceover videos of all the slides so if you want to view some videos of other portions of the talk you can go to www.vidscrip.com/drtoddbrandt. Also www.TBUrology.com should provide that link.  Prostate anatomy relative to the bladder and the pelvic floor. The prostate is a gland that is located under the bladder and on top of the pelvic floor muscles/sphincter. We say that it surrounds the urethra but it actually is the urethra. The urine passes right through the prostate. During cancer treatment with a prostatectomy, the prostate is removed. The bladder is then brought down to meet the urethra and sewn together. When the prostate is removed a man will be more conscious of the pelvic floor and sphincter. There's less distance between the bladder and the urinary sphincter to stop the flow of urine. Furthermore when the bladder is brought down into the pelvis this changes the angle of the bladder and urethra enough in some men to increase the risk of urinary incontinence. What is the pelvic floor? What is the purpose? The pelvic floor is a group of muscles and connective tissue that support the bowel, rectum, bladder and sexual organs. The muscles connect to the pelvis almost like a hammock. In addition, the pelvic floor muscles help to stabilize the pelvis, acting as an aid to the abdominal muscles and back muscles.   The urethral opening and the anus go through the pelvic floor; the pelvic floor assists in urinary and fecal continence.  How does the pelvic floor relate to urinary function? The pelvic floor muscles coalesce around the urethra as a sphincter, controlling the flow of urine. When the pelvic floor muscles contract, the internal organs are lifted and the sphincters tighten around the openings to the anus and urethra, preventing output or leakage. When the pelvic floor muscles are relaxed, they allow the passage of urine or bowel movements. Incontinence happens when someone leaks urine, unable to control urine output. Men don't typically spend a lot of time thinking about their pelvic floor muscles because the prostate provides a fair amount obstruction, even for normal size prostates, preventing small amounts of leakage. Therefore men will have a variable amount of strength and control within the pelvic floor prior to an operation. Men who have had their prostate removed will have to rely on the pelvic floor and sphincter for their continence. Most all men after prostatectomy will benefit from strengthening the pelvic floor muscles. To strengthen pelvic floor in gain urinary control we recommend routinely doing Kegel exercises. What is a Kegel exercise? A Kegel exercise, named after Dr. Arnold Kegel, consists of contracting and relaxing the muscles that form the pelvic floor. How to do a Kegel exercise. To find your pelvic floor muscles, imagine trying trying to stop the flow of urine midstream or hold back a fart. The muscles you're activating are your pelvic floor muscles. Most men describe a lifting sensation at the base of the penis if they are doing the exercise correctly. It may be easier to isolate your pelvic floor muscles if you lie on your back with your feet flat and knees bent. Allow yourself to relax. Then, try to contract the muscles. The contraction should feel like you are lifting up, not bearing down. You should try to lift the perineum, which is the area between your scrotum and anus. Do not contract the abdominals, thighs or buttocks. Never hold your breath. To do a “Kegel”, to exercise your pelvic floor muscles, you contract hold your muscles for a count of five then relax fully. Squeeze. Count to five. Relax. That's one Kegel. To “Kegel” you repeat this contraction/relaxation sequence for about 5-10 repetitions. You should aim to do these repetitions 2 to 4 times per day. Does it help right away? It takes 4 to 6 weeks to make changes in the muscles to see noticeable improvement in strength. What is Biofeedback? Biofeedback is a way to monitor the pelvic floor contraction and gauge its strength. A session with a specially trained nurse can apply the EMG monitor to you so you can actually see if you are contracting the right muscles and if the muscles themselves are gaining strength.
