Why Pelvic Health Matters. An honest and empowering guide to understanding your body.
This book takes women on a vital journey to better understanding their pelvic health throughout all stages of life, and empowers them to take control of the core of their physical and mental wellbeing.
Pelvic health issues can impact a huge range of physiological functions but there is very little information or help readily available for these problems. Pregnancy and childbirth can have a significant impact on pelvic health, but did you know that it can also be affected by other things? This can commonly lead to physical symptoms relating to your bladder, bowels and sex life as well as impacting mental health.
But knowledge is power, and Clare Bourne has dedicated her career to improving our pelvic health – this book contains answers to all the questions you’ve been too embarrassed or scared to ask, and many more you didn’t know you needed the answers for – nothing is TMI!
Including explanations of symptoms, with practical tips, advice and exercises throughout, this book covers:
1. Understanding Our Foundations: Getting to know (and love) your body
2. Where Did Our Story Begin? How early life lays our foundations
3. Bump, Birth and Beyond: Care, prepare and recover
4. Moving Through Life: Perimenopause and beyond
Clare Bourne is a pelvic health physiotherapist based in London. She has specialised in pelvic health for the last 9 years and has had two children in this time which has allowed her to experience for herself the importance of caring for our pelvic health through motherhood.
Since 2020 Clare has been sharing regular pelvic health content and information on instagram and has grown a following of over 40k, and has been amazed by the hunger and passion from women to get help and understand their pelvic health more. She has seen a huge shift in the last few years of women being fed up with having to accept symptoms as just part of their life and motherhood. Clare has worked with a number of influencers to help them improve their own health.
Clare has also contributed to other books.
