Releasing the Pelvic Floor

Releasing the Pelvic Floor

Many people suffer from chronic tesnion and pain in the pelvis or their bottom. In some cases it is attributed to the muscles of the pelvic floor being tigh or in spasm. We may also have trigger points that contribute to pain in the pelvis, but also radiating into the groin, legs, hips, and back.

This video focuses on gentle pelvic floor release techniques designed to reduce tension, improve mobility, and restore healthy coordination between the pelvic floor, hips, and breath. Rather than strengthening, the emphasis is on letting go of chronic holding patterns that can contribute to pelvic pain, urinary symptoms, low back discomfort, and hip restriction.

The instructor demonstrates slow, controlled movements combined with diaphragmatic breathing to encourage the pelvic floor to soften and lengthen. Viewers are guided to tune into sensation, reduce gripping in the abdomen and glutes, and allow the pelvic diaphragm to respond naturally to breath and movement.

Throughout the video, the importance of nervous system regulation is highlighted. Releasing the pelvic floor is presented not as a forceful action, but as a process of safety, awareness, and gentle cueing—supporting improved pelvic function, circulation, and overall body balance.

This video is especially relevant for individuals experiencing pelvic tension, postpartum or post-surgical tightness, chronic stress patterns, or those who feel that traditional Kegels worsen symptoms.
