👆🏻Here’s what it actually is, when we use it, and why it’s never the whole plan.

⭐️Pressure management starts above the pelvic floor⭐️

🥤We can think of our core like a soda can

• Top: diaphragm
• Sides: abdominals + back muscles
• Bottom: pelvic floor

If pressure pushes down or out:
• The bottom can leak
• The sides can bulge
• The system becomes unstable

(This is where symptoms show up.)

Good core function =
✨ pressure spread evenly
✨ breath + movement working together
✨ support without gripping

Give these exercises a try:

1️⃣ 360 Breathing on Hands and Knees
—think about breathing into your sides and back & let your belly soften on your inhale

2️⃣ Serratus Wall Press
—exhale as you press the foam roller toward the wall & feel your ribs gently wrap in

3️⃣ Thread the Needle
—inhale to rotate open & exhale as you thread

4️⃣ Heel Slides
— exhale as you gently draw your lower belly in to stabilize your hips as you slide your heel out and back in

Leaking, pain, or pressure after kids, workouts, or just… life?
These symptoms are common, but they are NOT normal.

Pelvic floor physical therapy helps address the root cause, not just the symptoms. If you’ve ever wondered whether pelvic floor PT might be for you—this is your sign. www.corewellnesspt.clinic

What is Dry Needling?
Dry needling uses a very fine, sterile needle to release muscle tension, improve blood flow, and reset overactive or painful trigger points.

It’s especially effective for:
✔️ Chronic tightness or knots
✔️ Headaches and neck pain
✔️ Low back or hip pain
✔️ Postpartum tension and core imbalance
✔️ Sports recovery

At Core Wellness, we often combine dry needling with movement retraining, Pilates-based strength, and hands-on therapy — so your body doesn’t just feel better, it functions better.

Curious if it’s right for you? Send us a DM or head to our website to book an evaluation to learn more:
