Pushing and The Pelvic Floor: Birth Prep
Manage episode 358775038 series 3329691
In this episode of "Pushing and the Pelvic Floor: Birth Prep," Caitlin Pender discusses the connection between vocalisation during labour and the pelvic floor.
Caitlin shares how using deep, guttural, low tones during the pushing phase creates a subtle back pressure at the glottis, pushing down the diaphragm and softening and relaxing the pelvic floor, ultimately aiding in the birthing process. She also shares her experiences feeling the subtle changes in tone in a client's pelvic floor during an assessment, emphasising the importance of vocalisation during labour.
Tune in to learn more about this crucial link between pushing and the pelvic floor.
