The Pelvic Floor, The digital platform about the female pelvic floor!

The Pelvic Floor on a mission!
  • More than 1 in 2 of all women worldwide will experience pelvic floor problems at some point in their lives!
  • Pelvic floor muscle exercises and healthy lifestyle modifications are recommended to all women as the first form of "prevention" or "therapy" to prevent problems.
  • 1 in 3 women do not know how to exercise her pelvic floor muscles correctly.
  • Exercise alone, does not always help enough, but it is an important start!
Prevention is better than cure!

That The Pelvic Floor, successfully succeeds in making pelvic floor problems more debatable, we dare to write with great pride!
The online following continues to grow steadily! The press and media regularly publish articles about the pelvic floor and The Pelvic Floor book, published by Lannoo, gets very positive reviews!  

But we bump into several pain points.

  1. Global advice often falls short. Every woman is unique. So personalized advice is worth its weight in gold!
  2. Taboo and unsaid. Many women already understand their problems better but dare not discuss them live if not explicitly asked about them.
  3. Procrastination. Women have little time to seek live help and schedule consultations.
  4. Waiting times are long. A lot of time is lost. Time that can be used in the meantime to get started on your own!
  5. (Para)medics but also fitness and wellness professionals do great work but they have too little time and expertise to create good digital information resources.

Worked hard. Learned a lot. Time for action now!  

The Pelvic Floor, remains committed to the goals of before:

  • breaking the taboo
  • raising awareness
  • share information

but now commit even more strongly to empowerment!

The Pelvic Floor will be the digital information platform about the pelvic floor, for every woman!

The Pelvic Floor Selcheck

The Pelvic Floor Selfcheck., our online screening helps every woman assess her own pelvic floor health. It requires only a few minutes of your time, but makes a world of difference. With questions about any risk factors, problems and impact on quality of life, we break the taboo and provide valuable insight to each unique woman. We promote pelvic floor health with empowering personal advice and put the woman at the center of her own quest for health, quality of life and/or help.  

The online exercise program

All international guidelines indicate that pelvic floor muscle exercises and lifestyle interventions are the ideal first step to prevent and treat pelvic floor problems. Personalized feedback and intensive training increase the chances of success. More and more women now know this advice, especially if they have already given birth. Nevertheless, more than 90% of all women say that exercise rarely comes up and they want extra information and tips about it.
The pelvic floor WORKOUT is an online exercise program, developed to give women the right information and tools to get started and to keep up those pelvic floor exercises.
