The pelvic floor and diaphragm relationship

Did you know that your diaphragm and pelvic floor work together to support your body? 

These two muscle groups form a crucial part of your core, working in harmony to maintain stability and function. The diaphragm helps with breathing, while the pelvic floor supports your pelvic organs.

🫶 When you inhale, the diaphragm contracts and moves down, creating space for your lungs. This action can also help the pelvic floor to relax. Conversely, as you exhale, the diaphragm lifts, encouraging the pelvic floor to engage.

Whether you’re practicing yoga, pilates, or just focusing on your breathing, remember the synergy between these two vital muscle groups!
