Dr. Ginger Garner - The Relationship between the Voice and the Pelvic Floor

Break the stigma about keeping pelvic health talk behind closed doors. Join us, Flyte Therapy @flytetherapy, in chatting with pelvic health experts about all things pelvic floor and beyond.

Who are we? We are a product (known as Flyte, clinically shown to strengthen the pelvic floor when used for 5 min daily x 6 weeks, and rid of bladder leaks) and service company focused on increasing access to pelvic health care that is evidence-based, can fit into your lifestyle, AND connects you to a wealth of resources and experts. Check us out at www.flytetherapy.com

Now let's get to the Core of the Pelvic Floor! Hosted by Shravya Kovela, PT, DPT, OCS and supported by Flyte by Pelvital.

Dr. Ginger Garner is an integrative PT, eucator, and longtime advocate committed to making physical therapy services accessible, affordable, and equitable, especially for pelvic health. She is the CEO of Living Well Institute, author of Medical Therapeutic Yoga, and owner of pelvic and orthopedic practice EudeMOMia in Greensboro, NC.

So basically a total power house. We talk about:

- What the voice even has to do with the pelvic floor?

- How your voice quality may indicate some pelvic floor involvement (and what kind of voice qualities to keep your eye on)

- Up to date research on how accurately people think they are using their pelvic floors vs how they actually are doing

- A fabulous case study showcasing the fact that it's about HOW we use our voice more so than how often, that is related to our pelvic floor

And so much more. Listen to this episode to learn about something you probably haven't thought about before, either as a clinician or simply someone who uses their voice all day (calling all singers, teachers, educators, doctors, and any other frequent voice users!). If anything, just listen for Ginger's casual musical voice because she for sure has that.
