Do you pee a little when you sneeze, feel pelvic pressure when you lift something heavy or wonder whether you should be doing Kegels? In this episode of the Everyday Homesteading Podcast, I sit down with Jenn Lormand, co-founder of Tighten Your Tinkler, to talk about pelvic floor dysfunction symptoms and the online pelvic floor course I’ve been using at home.
After my tenth birth, I was dealing with a mild prolapse. Every time I tried to get back to strength training, that heavy feeling came back. I share how I fit the Tighten Your Tinkler exercises into my mornings and what I noticed over time when I was lifting, carrying and doing everyday work around the homestead.
In this episode, we talk about:
- Bladder leaks, urgency and pelvic pressure after childbirth
- What it can feel like when your pelvic floor is weak or overly tight
- Why Jenn’s program uses guided movement without Kegels or internal devices
- What the Signature Program involves and when to seek individualized care
Jenn Lormand is an exercise physiologist, author and published researcher. Her own experience with prolapse led her to co-create Tighten Your Tinkler with physical therapist Christina Walsh.
