Pelvic Floor Relaxation Exercise 2: Lower Abdominal Muscle Relaxation
Many women habitually contract their lower abdominal muscles; sometimes as a result of intense core abdominal exercises with insufficient relaxation or in some cases to flatten the appearance of their belly.
Learning to relax the lower abdominal muscles helps to relax the pelvic floor muscles. Abdominal relaxation is also helped by the deep breathing exercises already described.
