In this episode of In Heels with Keni Silva, Keni sits down with pelvic floor expert Courtney Virden to discuss pelvic floor health, perimenopause, bladder leaks, Kegels, sexual health, fascia, and what women should know about their bodies as they age.
In this episode of In Heels with Keni Silva, Keni sits down with movement and pelvic floor expert Courtney Virden, creator of the iCORE Method, for an eye-opening conversation about what women should know about pelvic floor health.
From bladder leaks and back pain to sexual health, childbirth, aging, and perimenopause, Courtney explains why many symptoms women are taught to accept as “normal” may deserve a closer look.
Keni and Courtney discuss why pelvic floor dysfunction isn’t simply about weakness, why Kegels aren’t the answer for everyone, and how breathing, posture, fascia, stress, and movement throughout the body can influence pelvic floor function.
Courtney also shares her own experience with pelvic floor dysfunction after motherhood and how it ultimately led her to develop the iCORE Method, a whole-body approach designed to help women better understand and support their bodies.
They also explore how pelvic health changes as women age, why these issues can affect women regardless of whether they’ve given birth, and why conversations about women’s bodies need to become much more open.
This episode is an empowering conversation about understanding your body, questioning what you’ve been told is “normal,” and taking a more informed approach to women’s health at every stage of life.
