When I first “cracked the code” on stabilizing and reversing prolapse, and wrote and published Saving the Whole Woman, I set up this forum. While I had finally gotten my own severe uterine prolapse under control with the knowledge I had gained, I didn’t actually know if I could teach other women to do for themselves what I had done for my condition.
So I just started teaching women on this forum. Within weeks, the women started writing back, “It’s working! I can feel the difference!”
From that moment on, the forum became the hub of the Whole Woman Community. Unfortunately, spammers also discovered the forum, along with the thousands of women we had been helping. The level of spamming became so intolerable and time-consuming, we regretfully took the forum down.
Technology never sleeps, however, and we have better tools today for controlling spam than we did just a few years ago. So I am very excited and pleased to bring the forum back online.

Hello traci1972
I wanted to welcome you to the forum and say hello.
The best exercises for prolapse are in Christine's book and DVD other than that I am not sure. There are lots of keep fit fanatics on this website and I am sure they will be around soon. Louise is a fountain of information.
As for now I would start with the posture. You can find a description of the posture on the home page under the FAQ's section. Any questions just ask away and someone will answer.

Hi Traci
I think that yoga is helpful for overall strengthening(and not stressing) the body. Especially upside-down postures like shoulder stand. Also Chi Kung which works a lot with reproductive and other organs.
In Christine's book there is a ballet-like workout.

Hi Traci
Hi Traci
As far as I know Kegals will only really help incontinence, but will also help you with self awareness of what is happening in your pelvic area, and therefore enjoyment of sex. They will not help prolapses because the pelvic floor muscles are really designed for allowing things like poo, wee and babies to exit. The only thing they allow in or keep in is a penis or other object used for sexual penetration. Even then they don't really do a wonderful job of keeping the said object in, in spite of all the wonderful stories from companies that manufacture objects for putting in a vagina to increase its 'strength'. They are not made from the right type of muscle fibre for supporting anything. They are just made for opening and closing apertures.
The strength of pelvic floor comes from stretching it tight across the pelvic diaphragm, which is done purely with posture. Along with this, the same posture will push the organs forward so they are sitting on the pubic bone, and not backwards so they are resting on the pelvic floor.
Whole body exercise that allows the woman to maintain Wholewoman posture is needed to keep the bladder high, as it strengthens all the muscles, and consequently the fascia surrounding them, while the whole is strung on to the skeleton. I guess it is desirable to engage in a variety of types of exercise so that different muscle groups are used. Hope that helps.
Louise
