Upcoming Training Opportunities and Resources in Pelvic Health

Dr. Christina Prevett // #ICEPelvic // www.ptonice.com 

In today's episode of the PT on ICE Daily Show, ICE Pelvic division leader Christina Prevett discusses the rising trend of the anti-Kegel movement within pelvic health. She explores the origins of the anti-Kegel sentiment, referencing a study that compared EMG activation from Kegel exercises to that of other core exercises such as planks and leg lifts. This study led some to believe that whole body exercises could replace Kegels, a notion Christina critically examines. She presents both sides of the argument, emphasizing the need for a balanced approach to pelvic health moving forward into 2025.
