Since Kegel exercises for pelvic floor strengthening can’t be visually demonstrated well, I’ll be guiding you through them with clear explanations instead – which is a little different from my usual follow-along videos!
In this video you’ll learn how to locate and properly engage your pelvic floor muscles to perform Kegels effectively. And this anyone can do this!
I also share with you how many reps and how often to complete the Kegel exercise to optimize pelvic floor health and how to maintain pelvic floor health.
I also offer some tips and tricks when doing this exercise and answer some of the most common questions I would get as a PT.
Lastly, if you notice you’re doing well with this pelvic floor exercise I also share a few ways to increase the difficulty so you can give yourself a little challenge.

My greatest goal is to teach people simple and easy to do at home self-treatment techniques in a follow along setting so you can learn what I’ve used that has kept me pain free for the past 30 years!
I’ve been a licensed physical therapist for the past 30 years and have been a John F. Barnes’ Myofascial Release® practitioner for the past 25 years.
