Most people think pelvic floor problems mean they need more strengthening. But before your pelvic floor can effectively lift and contract, it first needs to fully lengthen and release. A muscle that is constantly gripping cannot generate real strength or recoil. Learning how your pelvic floor moves with breathing — lengthening on an inhale and recoiling on an exhale — is often the missing piece behind better core connection, less leaking, reduced pain, and improved function.
One of the most common questions we hear at AK Pelvic Health & Wellness is:
“How many visits will this take?”
And it’s a great question.
Many people hope that one session—or even just a few exercises—will completely solve issues like leaking, pelvic pain, pressure, or core weakness. While some clients notice improvement quickly, lasting change in the body rarely happens overnight.
