Bladder weakness is one of the most common consequences of weak pelvic floor muscles and a staggering 1 in 4 women will experience it at some point in their lives.
Weak pelvic floor muscles can be due to lack of exercise. Like any other muscles in the body, if the pelvic floor muscles are not exercised they can become weakened.
Recent research revealed that 64% of women exercise once a week or less and only 5% of women exercise more than 3 times a week.
The Pelvicore Technique exercises can cure bladder weakness in up to 70% of women if they are performed regularly and yet nearly a quarter of women have no idea where their pelvic floor muscles are located.
CoreWellness, a Europe-wide campaign, is determined to help women get back in control of their bodies with the help of world expert, Professor Kari Bo of Oslo University. In this video she talks about why these muscles are important and exercise techniques to use.
