Interventions

OTHER

Pelvic floor down training exercise

Patient will be asked to breathe deeply and bring her awareness to her pelvic floor. Feel her muscles relax as she inhales and maintain position for 5 seconds and then release for the same amount of time. Do two to three sets of 10 throughout the day. Once she masters this, she can try holding and releasing for longer periods of time. Make sure she is breathing while doing these exercises. It 's important to breathe all the way into her stomach (instead of only breathing into her chest). Keeping her belly relaxed. This is known as diaphragmatic breathing.
