12-Minute Pelvic Floor Relaxation Using the Wall for Support

[@beccarose2887]

This video is incredible. I recently started pelvic floor PT for hypertonic pelvic floor and something about the wall support in these stretches just totally dissolved all the tension in my lower back and glutes... it's the most I've honestly ever felt my pelvic muscles relax.

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

Thank you for the kind feedback. I am so happy to hear the exercises were helpful 😊🌸

[@angelcitygirl]

This is so helpful, and your calming soothing voice is everything. Thank you. ❤

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

I'm so glad you find it helpful! Thank you for the kind words 😊🌸

[@angelcitygirl]

@The Flower Empowered I just recommended your videos on the IC boards. The way you say to relax and breathe. I was like I hate my body! But listening to you I realize my body is sick and I need to help it. So honestly. Thank you.

I'm on day 3 of streching once a day. How many weeks until you see a difference in tightness. Is flexibility similar to building strength in the sense that it can take a while?

[@leewolfo9529]

I have heard that few people needed like a month or two but it depends on person! Since you commented 3 months ago I hope that results are better!

Türkiye'den selamlar🤗 Harikaydı ☺️ Türkçe alt yazı eklerseniz çok sevinirim ..🇹🇷 Şimdiden teşekkürler 😉

I will add it to the list!

[@holfela]

Wow so much more comfortable! Thank you so much

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

You are so welcome 😊🌸

[@anasalazar2174]

Buenos dias . Yo hago estas posiciones en la noche . Me ha ido muy bien .tengo mucha flexibilidad tengo 53 años desde Valencia Venezuela

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

Me alegro de que lo hayas encontrado útil. Gracias por ver 😊🌸

[@bobkatc9368]

Is 2 minutes each exercise a day enough, or should you do a few times a day?

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

That would be very effective 👍🏻

[@michaeltomy186]

Is this reverse kegel or regular kegel?

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

Neither Kegel nor reverse Kegel. This is yin yoga for pelvic floor relaxation. You can do this as a compliment to a reverse Kegel practice. This practice will relax your pelvic floor more than reverse Kegels.

[@lubnashamsi876]

hi will these streches help vaginismus?

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

Yes, all pelvic floor relaxation exercises are helpful for vaginismus, as vaginismus is a condition where the pelvic floor goes into spasm when penetration is attempted. Exercise alone might not resolve your issues though, it’s much better to have a multidisciplinary approach. You can read this one for some suggestions: theflowerempowered.com/2020/12/17/5-steps-to-overcome-vaginismus/

[@ayushitiwari7794]

can this be done at evening？

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

Yes, it’s fine to do in the evening 😊🌸

[@SandiswaCengani]

I tried the second exercise and it made me fart. Is that a good thing? Will it help with piriformis? ( Tight butt)

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

Yes, if you farted that means your pelvic floor has relaxed. The piriformis gets a good stretch in these poses 👍🏻

[@SandiswaCengani]

@@TheFlowerEmpowered thanks

[@jamievillanueva1064]

This is great! I love the wall supported stretches, it's super relaxing! Thanks for the video 💕

I’m so glad you enjoyed it 😊

This was wonderful like that you did a few position .. with timer and voice over

[@lfc4life73]

Will these exercises help pudendal neuralgia? I'm having a hard time overcoming this issue

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

They can be helpful, but listen to your body with each practice, and skip any poses that is triggering

[@valkiriacolon622]

Does this help with vaginismus? Thank you for helping us with the videos.🙂🙏🙌

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

Yes! This should help with Vaginismus 🌸😊

[@sahithisings]

Does these exrercises helps to overcome vaginisms?

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

Yes, this and the other videos in the relaxation playlist can help to relax the pelvic floor which is helpful if you have vaginismus. You should also see a pelvic floor physio if possible and check this article for some other tips: theflowerempowered.com/2020/12/17/5-steps-to-overcome-vaginismus/

[@ЭляПетрова-л9м]

Спасибо большое спасибо я все занятия стараюсь делать, спасибо за ваше дело

[@samie6182]

I'm having a lot if trouble with my legs they get really difficult to hold the position and I'm crying out of no where I feel really confused maybe if i try poses on the ground before tryong on a wall it might become easier?

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

You should use support for the legs as you shouldn’t have to hold them in the position . It’s supposed to be a relaxing position. You can place bolsters, cushions or even chairs around the legs to provide support. Let me know if this makes sense and if not a can make a short video showing how 😊

[@knapper147]

Thankyou for these relaxation techniques. I don't think I've ever felt my pelvic floor before.

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

You're so welcome!

[@nelsonsilvajunior9913]

I am male, don't know if the technique is target to females, but... i did and it brings immense relaxation. I could feel how tense my perineum was. Thanks!

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

The technique is gender neutral. Happy to hear you experienced good relaxation… these ones are among my favorites for pelvic floor relaxation 😃

[@nelsonsilvajunior9913]

@@TheFlowerEmpowered this technique can help with ED?

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

It can help with ED when pelvic floor hypertonicity is contributing. Erections have both a contractile and a vascular component. Tight/short muscles are not strong due to having no space at the muscle fibre level to contract. This can cause ED issues. By releasing and relaxing the tight muscles, their resting length is restored to an optimal level which allows them to contract. If the ED issues are vascular then these exercises are less helpful. Make sense?

[@nelsonsilvajunior9913]

@@TheFlowerEmpowered yes, makes perfect sense! Thank you very much for the prompt and kind reply!

[@lfc4life73]

Ive been doing this everyday for 3 weeks no results yet. I plan on doing it everyday for 3 months and stopping if i see no benefits. Do you think thats a long enough timescale or should i give it six months

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

I would mix it up if I were you. There are many videos in the relaxation playlist with different types of poses. You will likely find that some poses are more effective than others. Once you find those that work for you, practice those regularly and you’ll likely see benefits much faster.

[@lfc4life73]

@The Flower Empowered ok, thanks.

[@lfc4life73]

Im able to do these exercises but cant get my bum close to the wall, will they still be effective?

[@lfc4life73]

[@jackbased3003]

I'm really not flexible so i can't really do the poses super well. Like i can't hold my legs straight. Is that alright?

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

Yes, you should adapt the poses for your specific body. Don’t push into the poses and use support is needed. It you watch the video on this link, you will see some examples on how to modify the pigeon pose: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4KXanaah55go9Esi=PruXahSct-uTYpUX

[@harsheenkaur168]

I did these for the 1st time today and didn’t realize how tensed my muscles were. Feel so relaxed now. Thank you 🙏🏻

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

You're so welcome! 😊

[@Lenaese]

I love you ❤

[@lfc4life73]

How did you manage to get your bum so close to the wall? I can't seem to get close

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

That’s to do with hip knee and ankle flexion. Bring the wall close to you using blocks or some books. You can also use cushions between your stomach and your legs, and put a strap or belt around your legs to prece them from opening too widely. If you do, you can take a little longer in the pose in that supported position, but make sure you don’t feel any pain. Practice with compassion and listen to your body 🌸😊

[@flori2611]

[@sumairasafdar3375]

Should these exercises be done along with Diastasis Recti exercises or after Diastasis Recti exercises???

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

These are pelvic floor relaxation exercises, so good to do before bed. You shouldn’t feel doming in any of the poses. If you do, skip that pose until your diastasis has improved, or skip altogether if it doesn’t feel right for you. Listen to your body 😊🌸

[@Exiled78]

how many days before i see results?

[@TheFlowerEmpowered]

Completely depends on your specific body. Some people find relief right away, some find relief after weeks or even months of consistent practice. Best to work with a pelvic floor physio If you can and make sure to listen to your body when practicing any yoga. Don’t push or pull into positions but rather allow yourself to surrender, and use support where needed. Let me know if that helps!
