Stomach flu or food poisoning can do more than upset your stomach.

Frequent diarrhea and urgency place repeated stress on the pelvic floor muscles. Rushing to the bathroom, tightening to avoid accidents, and frequent bowel movements can disrupt coordination and muscle control.

For some people, this can lead to lingering symptoms like urgency, leakage, or pelvic discomfort, even after the illness has passed.

Pelvic floor physical therapy helps retrain these muscles, restore balance, and support recovery after illness.

If something feels different after being sick, your pelvic floor may be asking for support. đź’™

Breathing isn’t just about your lungs. It affects your entire body, including your pelvic floor.

When nasal congestion or illness makes breathing harder, many people unknowingly hold their breath or use shallow breathing patterns. Over time, this can increase tension in the pelvic floor and contribute to symptoms like pressure, pain, or urgency.

Learning how to breathe efficiently and manage pressure in the body is a key part of pelvic floor physical therapy.

Your breath matters more than you think. đź’™

When you’re sick and can’t breathe well through your nose, your body changes how it manages pressure. The diaphragm works harder, breathing gets shallower, and the pelvic floor often responds by tightening to keep up.

Over time, that extra tension can contribute to symptoms like heaviness or leaking, especially if you already have pelvic floor sensitivity.

The good news? Gentle breathwork and pelvic floor support can help your body stay balanced even during cold and flu season. Need help figuring out where to start? DM us or visit www.levelupwellpt.com.

Cold and flu season doesn’t just affect your sinuses. It affects your core and pelvic floor too. More coughing, sneezing, and shallow breathing can change how your body manages pressure, which is why symptoms like leaking or heaviness tend to show up more this time of year.

Supporting your pelvic floor through better breathing, gentle movement, and personalized care can make a noticeable difference in how you feel during (and after) being sick.

If you’re noticing new symptoms or flare-ups, DM us or visit www.levelupwellpt.com. We’re here to help you feel steady and supported through every season.

Holiday food is one of the best parts of the season… but let’s be honest, it doesn’t always love us back. All the rich, low-fiber meals can slow digestion, leave you feeling heavy, and make constipation a lot more common this time of year.

And here’s the part many people don’t realize:
Constipation can directly affect your pelvic floor. When your stool is harder and more difficult to pass, the pelvic floor may tense up, leading to symptoms like heaviness, pain, or even leaking.

The good news? Small changes make a big difference.
Adding more fiber, drinking water, gentle movement, and avoiding “holding it in” can help keep things moving. And if constipation is something you struggle with year-round, pelvic floor physical therapy can support both gut health and pelvic function.

If you need support or want personalized guidance, DM us or check our website www.levelupwellpt.com

Your bladder reacts to more than you think. Alcohol can raise urgency, make the bladder more sensitive, and even amplify pelvic floor symptoms, especially if hydration or fiber are low.

You don’t need to cut anything out completely. Just noticing patterns and supporting your body can help you feel more comfortable.

If you’re unsure where to start, reach out to us. We’re here to help you understand your symptoms and find what works for your body.

Your pelvic floor responds to pressure all day. Breathing, lifting, laughing, moving. When that system is overwhelmed or out of sync, even a quick sneeze can feel like too much.

Small improvements in coordination, breathing, and everyday habits often create bigger changes than people expect. Supportive care can make your body feel more capable and more at ease.
