Ideally we all can benefit from pelvis floor excercises,
including men.
My dad had his prostate removed recently for cancer
and I told him to start and excercise his pelvic floor pre-surgery to help with
his recovery. He told his specialist what I said and he thought it was an
excellent idea. Interestingly my Dad noticed improvement with his "weeing"
just from this and did have a good recovery.
Anyway, just my two bits,
Megan
PS trampolines are an excellent way to find out how strong
your pelvic floor is, or isn't as you may find out.

Subject: [ozmidwifery] pelvic floor information
Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction with some research I am doing for a story on the importance of pelvic floor exercises. A lot of women are led to believe - I guess, by scalpel-happy OB's - that a weakened pelvic floor can be avoided a by having a c-section. I recall, some time last year, reading an article disproving this theory, but, of course cannot remember where I read it. If there is anyone who can help me out here, I would greatly appreciate if you could let me know. Any other thoughts on the topic would be welcomed also.
Best wishes
Kylie Carberry
