✨ The Link Between Trauma & Pelvic Floor Dysfunction ✨
Did you know that unresolved trauma—whether physical, emotional, or psychological—can impact your pelvic floor health?
Our bodies store stress, and for many, that tension builds up in the pelvic muscles, leading to issues like:
💥 Chronic pelvic pain
💥 Urinary urgency or incontinence
💥 Pain during intimacy
💥 Digestive discomfort
💥 Tightness or weakness in the pelvic floor
Trauma, especially from past injuries, childbirth, sexual abuse or emotional distress, can cause the nervous system to stay in a "fight or flight" mode, making it hard for the pelvic floor to function properly. Healing often requires a holistic approach—pelvic floor therapy, breathwork, emotional support, and self-care.
If this resonates with you, know that there is help out there. 💛
