Level Up With Sharelle and Dani

In today’s insightful episode, we dive into the importance of pelvic floor health with Dr. Marina Magri.

Together, we explore common misconceptions and challenges many women face, particularly during and after pregnancy. We talk about the crucial role of awareness and education in preventing and managing pelvic floor dysfunction, including issues like incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse.

Dr. Marina shares her journey into specialising in pelvic health and why she’s passionate about helping women understand their bodies better. We unpack how factors such as stress, pregnancy, and training techniques can impact pelvic floor function, and why proper guidance and support are key to long-term health.

We also discuss how to prepare for labour, understand pelvic dynamics, and separate fact from fiction when it comes to pelvic floor training. This episode is all about empowering women with the knowledge and confidence to take proactive steps, from incorporating pelvic floor exercises to seeking professional help when needed, so we can all support better pelvic health, education, and awareness.
