Ep 14: The Importance Of The Pelvic Floor with Emma Brockwell

The important muscle that you probably need to work more. In this episode Physiotherapist, Emma Brockwell joins Katie to talk about pelvic floor health. As any new mum will agree, after birth you may find you have weakness in your tummy or pelvic floor which can result in instability, back pain and bladder and bowel issues.  Emma tells you the reasons why this happens, what to look out for, how to check yourself, what to consider when returning to exercise and even running, which is her speciality.  And as always mums on Mush put their questions to Emma.  This is your Companion to Motherhood. These episodes are designed to provide you with detailed information on the various steps in the first year of motherhood which you can listen to while you're feeding, changing, during nap time and just going about your day to day tasks.
