When people think about self-care, they often picture massages, skincare routines, or time off to relax. Rarely does pelvic floor health come to mind. Yet, your pelvic floor plays a critical role in how your body functions every single day. During Self-Love Month, it is the perfect time to shift the conversation and recognize pelvic floor care as an essential part of whole-body wellness, not a luxury or an afterthought.
What Is the Pelvic Floor and Why Does It Matter?
The pelvic floor is a group of muscles and connective tissues that support the bladder, bowel, and reproductive organs. These muscles also contribute to core stability, posture, and overall movement. When the pelvic floor is strong and functioning properly, it helps maintain bladder control, supports spinal alignment, and contributes to confidence in daily activities.
Over time, factors like pregnancy, childbirth, aging, high-impact exercise, prolonged sitting, and even chronic stress can weaken the pelvic floor. Many people live with symptoms such as urinary leakage, reduced core strength, or discomfort, assuming these changes are just a normal part of life. The truth is, help is available.
Why Pelvic Floor Health Is an Act of Self-Love
Self-Love Month encourages care without judgment. Addressing pelvic floor health is a powerful form of self-respect and self-compassion. When you support these muscles, you improve comfort, confidence, and function. Pelvic floor health impacts how you move, how you feel in your body, and how confidently you show up in everyday life.
Caring for this area of the body is not about vanity or convenience. It is about restoring balance, improving quality of life, and supporting long-term wellness.
How Emsella Supports Pelvic Floor Strength
At Lakeshore Chiropractic, Emsella offers a noninvasive solution for strengthening the pelvic floor. Emsella uses focused electromagnetic energy to stimulate deep pelvic floor muscle contractions. These contractions are far stronger and more targeted than what most people can achieve through traditional exercises alone.
Each Emsella session is performed fully clothed and requires no downtime. During treatment, thousands of muscle contractions are triggered, helping retrain and strengthen the pelvic floor. Many patients experience improvements in bladder control, core stability, and overall pelvic function over a series of sessions.
Emsella is beneficial for individuals of many ages and lifestyles, including those who have experienced changes after childbirth, those dealing with age-related pelvic floor weakness, or anyone seeking improved core support and confidence.
Integrating Pelvic Floor Care Into Whole-Body Wellness
Pelvic floor health does not exist in isolation. It is closely connected to posture, spinal alignment, and nervous system function. Chiropractic care supports these systems by improving alignment and communication between the brain and body. When combined with Emsella, chiropractic care helps create a balanced, functional foundation that supports strength and movement from the inside out.
Choosing Care Over Silence
Many people hesitate to talk about pelvic floor concerns, yet these issues are incredibly common. Self-love means giving yourself permission to address discomfort and seek solutions without embarrassment or delay.
This month, consider expanding your definition of self-care. Pelvic floor health is essential, empowering, and life-enhancing. At Lakeshore Chiropractic, support is available to help you feel stronger, more confident, and more comfortable in your body, now and in the years ahead. Contact us today to get started.
