#295 Pelvic Floor Help: Solutions for Incontinence, Prolapse, and Vaginal Health with Kim Vopni

Hi and welcome to How Humans Heal. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, and in today's episode, I'm really looking forward to introducing you to Kim Vopni. She's a certified fitness professional and menopause support practitioner known as the Vagina Coach. She helps women with their pelvic floor and vaginal health, and I'm so excited to get to talk about this with you today.

Originally, Kim's work was focused on pregnant women with the intention of educating them about the pelvic floor before they gave birth because we know that pregnancy and childbirth do quite a number on the pelvic floor.

Then it became clear that the postpartum recovery aspect was very overlooked. Women were being helped to prepare, but then they were sprinting back to the gym at one or two weeks postpartum. There was no recovery period that was even discussed. It just wasn't part of our culture. It's so unfortunate that women don't know that they need to do pelvic floor recovery exercises after birth.

Many women need help with pelvic floor and vaginal issues and there's not enough help out there. First of all, we tend not to even talk about the vagina. We tend not to ask for help. Women go through a lot of pain and discomfort and don't even know that there is someone to ask for help with vaginal health issues.

Kim and I both are here saying - listen, if you're struggling, there's help.

We're here to help you!
