Your Pelvic Floor Sucks

But It Doesn't Have To:
A Whole Body Guide to a Better Pelvic Floor

Does Your Pelvic Floor Suck?

 

Quick Answer: Your Pelvic Floor Does Suck.

Most people recognize a kegel exercise. So yes, your pelvic floor sucks, but did you know it does a lot more than that?

At least one in four women has some amount of pelvic floor dysfunction and most are being told it's a normal part of having kids or aging. But Dr. Lindsay Mumma disagrees and thinks you should, too.

She outlines an evidence-informed approach for improving pelvic floor function that is nerdy but approachable. With ready-to-implement practices, exercises, and explorations, this book is a comprehensive guide to addressing a variety of pelvic floor dysfunctions (including some you probably didn't know about).
In this book, you will learn: 
  • What the pelvic floor is and does.
  • How the whole body impacts the pelvic floor.
  • Common treatments for pelvic floor dysfunction (and whether or not they work).
  • Exercises to improve pelvic floor function, and how to approach care for your pelvic floor.

This book is for anyone who wants to know more about their pelvic floor and how to actually take care of it.

With her experience and knowledge, Dr. Mumma wants to help you achieve better pelvic floor function so that your pelvic floor doesn’t suck.

 

Meet Dr. Lindsay Mumma

 
Dr. Lindsay Mumma wrote Your Pelvic Floor Sucks because a kegel still seems to be the only thing that people know about the pelvic floor (including many doctors that she talks to). She thought about writing a book for her colleagues, but decided that everyone needed to know the basics of pelvic floor function and dysfunction. 

Dr. Mumma is a practicing chiropractor and the owner of Triangle Chiropractic and Rehabilitation Center in Raleigh, NC, a multidisciplinary practice she opened in 2012 after graduating from Palmer College of Chiropractic with the Clinical Excellence Award. She teaches continuing education for the Motion Palpation Institute and moveMentors.

Her private practice focuses on rehabilitative chiropractic care across the lifespan and with a specific focus on prenatal and postpartum health.

She is a wife, mother to two boys, speaker, life enthusiast, and author of The Trimester Series and the Substack publication Dr. Lindsay Mumma’s Newsletter.
