Hello, enjoying the course very much. So many wonderful techniques, have started using them a lot already.
Wanted to ask how do you work with internal bladder sphincter, the quiz asked about it and I don’t remember, unless I missed it, then I am sorry, will be watching all of it again.
Also wanted to check how soon can you work with your postpartum women internally, and how often do you have the sessions.
Thank you
You probably missed it because there isn’t that much to do with the internal sphincter other than after repositioning the bladder, just place your finger on the bladder sphincter and just give it some love as it may have been pulled on with the bladder malpositioned and we want to help it find it’s good position. There is no motion or anything you need to do with it other than encourage it to be happy in there! 🙂
This sounds relevant for bladder prolapse symptoms postpartum… if that is their complaint, do you find that is resolves after treatment? Does it usually descend again requiring multiple sessions, attempting to get it to stay in neutral?
I do find treating the bladder like this can help with stage 2 prolapses, but when we get to 3s and 4’s there is usually a fascial defect that is creating it and the support just isn’t there structurally. I have had many clients coming in thinking they have prolapse but closing their pelvic bones then addressing the bladder internally and also the cervix too, they no longer have any symptoms. It also helps when pfm’s can contract better when you do the entire intravaginal protocol. So glad you are here learning this material. Thanks.
