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.

kneeling chair
I used to use one years and years ago, well before I knew anything about prolapse. It was fabulous for my back and iirc, the position of the pelvis is not really 'slanted down' but tipped forward, which is a pretty good position in terms of where you want your pelvic organs to be. it would tip them forward, in front of the 'pelvic floor' and not above it. shouldn't put any undue pressure or stress on the pelvic ligaments and muscles.
but again, its been awhile.
am curious to hear what others may have to say

good point
re the tilting forward but not down, I was worried that it would force the organs down more and cause more work on the muscles and ligaments.
thanks for giving me that tip

kneeling
I had one that I loved in all aspects except the pressure it directed to my knees - had to give it up because I couldn't sit for more than a few minutes without aching knee caps.

knee caps and kneeling chairs
the one I used had a small ridge like thing, so the pressure was not on the knee cap but on the patellar tendon. much like a below-the-knee amputee would wear a prosthetic leg.
wish I knew the name of that chair or where to get one, I used it in P T school way back when. there were a couple floating around and we all used to fight over 'em.
but you could probably rig something up, like taping on a padded ledge to take the weight to the tendon.

I used one
You rested your shins on the kneeling part- knees kinda stuck out the front- it was great.
