Pelvic Floor Mobilization Framework
Mobilize your pelvic floor
The Pelvic Floor Mobilization Framework is a approach to improving pelvic floor health by mobilizing the endopelvic fascia and surrounding tissues. This can be done through various exercises and techniques, such as using a ball to apply pressure to the pelvic floor. The goal is to improve range of motion, reduce stiffness, and promote overall health.
- The pelvic floor is a critical area of the body that requires mobilization and attention.
- Mobilization of the pelvic floor can improve range of motion and reduce stiffness.
- The pelvic floor is connected to other areas of the body, such as the hips and lower back, and mobilization can have a positive impact on these areas as well.
- Identify areas of tension and stiffnessUse a ball or other tool to apply pressure to the pelvic floor and identify areas of tension and stiffness.Pro tipStart with gentle pressure and gradually increase as needed.WarningAvoid applying too much pressure, which can cause discomfort or injury.
- Mobilize the pelvic floorUse exercises and techniques, such as those described by Dr. Kelly Starrett, to mobilize the pelvic floor and surrounding tissues.Pro tipFocus on slow, controlled movements and avoid bouncing or forcing the tissues.WarningAvoid mobilizing the pelvic floor if you have a medical condition or injury that may be exacerbated by mobilization.
- Incorporate mobilization into daily routineIncorporate pelvic floor mobilization into your daily routine, such as after exercise or at the end of the day.Pro tipStart with short sessions and gradually increase duration and frequency as needed.WarningAvoid overdoing it, as this can cause fatigue or discomfort.
Dr. Kelly Starrett describes using a ball to apply pressure to the pelvic floor and mobilize the surrounding tissues.
An individual incorporates pelvic floor mobilization into their daily routine, such as after exercise or at the end of the day.
The framework was developed through the work of Dr. Kelly Starrett and others in the field of mobility and health. It is based on the idea that the pelvic floor is a critical area of the body that is often neglected, but is essential for overall health and function.
