  • If you have limited range of motion with internal hip rotation, this may be impacting your ability to relax your pelvic floor. In this video, we will test internal hip rotation using a version of the thomas test but performed on the yoga mat to check for pinching around the hip. We will then perform some joint mobilizations. This will help to increase internal rotation. We will also practice the half frog pose on each side for some further improvements before retesting to see if pinching has gone. This can help if you have limited internal hip rotation or pinching in the hips during childs pose.
    You can try these exercises before your pelvic floor relaxation sessions to help improve your ability to relax. Enjoy!

    Is there any substitute for the band stretch? I could easily get a band, but I don't think I have anything in my house solid/stationary enough to tie it to in a place where I could do that stretch. I think is definitely on track for my pelvic floor issues.

      Joint mobilizations can be done by physiotherapist or other manual therapist without a band. At you could use the strap from your bathrobe or a belt placed in the same position. Instead of doing the full movement, hold the belt with your hand and gently press the inside of your leg into the band. Don’t go crazy, just gentle traction is all that’s needed. A band would be best though if you can get your hands on one 😊🌸

      thank you! I could easily get a band, but I'm not sure where I could tie it to get the same effect as you do in your video. That's really the issue.

    Funny because I have been following your channel and I just came back from the chiropractor for this exact reason, I couldn't progress any further with my pelvic floor relaxation because my right hip is internally rotated due to a really weak left side. This caused my right hip flexors to be in constant spasm and to the point my low back was spasming too from the internal rotation. I come home, open youtube and TA DA, the algorithm recommends your video on this exact issue lol. Ah my Google overlord knows my every waking thought. If you have a rotation on only one side of hips, do you work out the opposite side for these exercises?

    • @TheFlowerEmpowered

      The Google overlord also reads my mind! I would probably be scared by it but most of the time it’s rather convenient 😂
      With regards to your question, take a look at the sitting position to check internal rotation at 23 seconds into the video. Instead of kneeling, sit with both legs out straight. Then bend the knee of your good leg, seal the knee and internally rotate, and rest your foot by your hip - so doing the pose with one leg out straight. This is a pose called “triang mukha eka pada paschimottanasana” in yoga (google overload will show you photos). Don’t fold forward, just see if you can sit that way on your “good” side.
      If you can sit comfortably on the non problematic side, you don’t need to do the joint mobilization on the opposite side, but it will be helpful if you have some stiffness.
      Meanwhile, I will update my list of videos to make with one for pelvic floor relaxation internal hip rotation focus 😊 hope that helps!

    just what i was looking for, since men and women have different hips, would this work for a guy? or is there a different variation dudes should do ?

    • @TheFlowerEmpowered
      @TheFlowerEmpowered  29 днів тому

      The shape of the pelvis is different but the exercises are the same. Let me know how it goes with this one 😊👍🏻

  • @andydee4842

    Thanks for this. Balances last week’s.
    1 question. Doing the joint mobilization does it matter if the foot rolls with the leg or if the sole of the foot stays flat on the floor?

    • @TheFlowerEmpowered
      @TheFlowerEmpowered  7 місяців тому +1

      It doesn’t matter so much. We aren’t working the ankle bit the hip joint so do what makes your foot feel good 👍🏻😊
