Got hooked on pelvic rocks

Body: 

As I started the First Aid for Prolapse - beginning workout part one and two, I like the pelvic rocks so much so that I have been doing it at my dinner table, desk, in front of my computer ... it feels good. I wonder if this is OK, am I overdoing it? will it hurt anything? just wondering.

Hi TotallyConfused,
Pelvic rocks are generally safe & effective, so I would have thought doing a lot of them would be ok. However I also think you too much of anything may have the potential to do harm. Also it would think it also depends on whether you are continuing to do the overall exercise sessions. If you concentrate solely on one exercise than that won't be holistic, & the WW approach is a 360 degrees top to toe holistic approach. So I'd recommend combining the pelvic rocks with a range of exercises as well.

Ultimately - you're the best judge for yourself! If it's working for you then it's working for you & that's fantastic:) If however you begin to have aches & pains or other negative symptoms or not much success re pelvic organ position improvement, then that might be a sign to try a more holistic approach.

One of the wonderful things about this approach is having control over your own treatment. To have the confidence to listen to your own thoughts & body & see what's right for you. Thankfully, we also have this forum, the WW teachers, the resources, website & Conference to support us on our way, when we're not sure or need teaching &/or support & guidance.

Love & good luck! wholewomanuk

hi totally,

i'll add to wholewomanuk's comment with a phrase christine coined, and which really is at the heart of the whole woman work:

"You are not the patient. You are the Physician." - Christine Kent.

keep up the good work!
