Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation

Ever wondered about the importance of the perineum? It’s that crucial area between the anus and vulva that supports the bladder, uterus, and bowel and plays a key role in sexual health, aids in childbirth by stretching to allow the baby to pass, and is crucial for continence control.

In Europe, every woman, regardless of her delivery (C-section, Vaginal Birth…), receives pelvic floor rehab to strengthen these muscles, a practice often overlooked in the U.S. Here, I take a proactive approach, integrating daily care routines that go beyond basic kegel exercises to improve and maintain your pelvic health for the loooong term.

My Rehabilitation program is based on “Eutonie” Principles which is this fantastic body awareness method developed in Europe back in the mid-20th century. It focuses on prevention, rehabilitation, and personal development.
