Episode 28

To Kegel or Not To Kegel??

If you feel badly for not doing 500 Kegels a day, you should listen to this episode!

When people think about pelvic floor health, many first think of Kegels. Contrary to popular opinion, not everyone should be doing Kegels! Kegels can do more harm than good at times, so it’s important to understand when to do them and when NOT to do them.

Amanda clarifies the important things to know about Kegels in this quick solo episode. Listen in to hear:

What is a Kegel?

  • How do you do a Kegel properly? (hint - it’s not how you might have been taught!)

  • When do you want to do a Kegel?

  • When do you NOT want to do a Kegel?

  • Why is it important to have an assessment by a pelvic physical therapist BEFORE doing Kegels?
