The proven method for regaining your strength and confidence, long term.
Wondering what’s going on with your pelvic floor, but too embarrassed to ask?
Are you experiencing any of these symptoms?
- Pain in the lower abdomen
- Pain in the deeper tissues around your hips and above your thighs
- Burning sensation when you pee
- Incontinence
- Painful bowel movements
- Feeling of discomfort or heaviness in your lower abdomen, vagina or rectum
- Pain during or after sex
Don’t worry, pelvic floor dysfunction has not singled you out!
There are so many women out there living with pelvic floor dysfunction. It’s much more common than you think.
Talking about your intimate bodily functions can be really hard for a lot of women, especially when there is often shame associated with that part of your body.
But your pelvic floor doesn’t need to be embarrassing to talk about, not when you are in a safe space with people who truly get it.
There is nothing taboo about your pelvic floor — promise.
Know that there is hope, that many women make a full recovery from pelvic floor dysfunction and that you have not done anything wrong.
It’s not your fault and you’re not a problem that needs to be fixed.
You AREN’T weak or broken
This didn’t happen to you because you did something wrong or didn’t take care of yourself properly.
This happened because hey, it HAPPENS! It happens a whole lot more often than we think (but no one warns us about it), and to a whole lot more people than we think (but no one talks about it).
AND it doesn’t just happen to pregnant or postpartum women either. Pelvic Floor Ddysfunction (PFD)
can affect you at any stage of your life, find out how to identify PFD here
There are plenty of ways pelvic floor dysfunction can develop, and it can feel totally different
in each person. If you’d like to learn about what it feels like, you can find out more here.
Pelvic floor dysfunction can show up in many different ways…
Some of the more common conditions that may result from pelvic floor dysfunction are:
You might be feeling concerned or anxious if you’ve been diagnosed with one of these conditions.
If you haven’t been diagnosed, but suspect there is something not quite right — you could be feeling a bit lost, and scared.
Your pelvic floor dysfunction does not define you and there are a bunch of people having exactly the same thoughts as you are right now.
You’re not alone and you’re definitely not broken.
This is not your new normal!
There is a future where the symptoms you’re experiencing right now are greatly reduced. And, in many cases, completely healed.
With the right support and some simple daily exercises, you can regain your full body function and feel confident and strong when you move again.
So, how do you heal your pelvic floor?
Each case of pelvic floor dysfunction is unique to you and your body so getting to know your pelvic floor intimately and reconnecting with your pelvic floor muscles is a great place to start.

pelvic floor exercises here
You might be surprised to discover that Kegels are NOT the cure all you may have been sold.
Pelvic floor dysfunction affects women in many different ways, so it’s fair to say that the treatment would be different for each issue, right? One exercise alone cannot heal pelvic floor dysfunction.

Your pelvis is vital to supporting your spine and entire body. Your muscles need to be able to relax just as much as they contract. A weakened pelvic floor doesn’t mean your muscles don’t work at all, they could be hypertonic (too tight) as well. So learning how to stretch and lengthen your pelvic muscles can be a great place to start.

When your pelvic floor is compromised, other muscles compensate and this can lead to some of the symptoms you’re experiencing. But how can tight muscles be weak?

While exercise and conditioning may feel like
the long road to recovery, they are vital to your
alignment and muscle tone and offer long lasting results.
One of the first questions we are often asked is,
Can I heal my pelvic floor without surgery?
Well. The honest answer is… It depends. But in many cases, yes.
Healing looks different for everyone, and it always takes TIME.
While in today’s world we’ve been trained to look for instant solutions and quick fixes, the truth is our bodies simply don’t work that way.

Each body is different.
Everyone is unique when it comes to their pelvic floor. In some instances, incontinence might be the most troublesome symptom, while for others it could be hip or low back pain, or a feeling of pressure/heaviness in the lower abdomen that is most concerning.
While many women can successfully address their pelvic floor issues without resorting to surgery, there are cases where it may be necessary.
Nevertheless, most surgeons advise attempting non-surgical healing methods for a minimum of one year before considering surgery. If you're interested in understanding when surgery might be needed for pelvic floor repair, you can find more information here.
There is a lot to consider before committing to surgery, pelvic floor therapy could be a helpful step before making a final decision. Read more about your options here.
Another option before committing to surgery is to consult with a Pelvic Health Physiotherapist or Occupational Therapist. You can learn more about how these pros can help here.

Barbara Martinez
“Without an ounce of drama, I can truly say that RYC changed my life. With RYC® I learned to love and trust my body. To see and treat it like a wonderful part of who I am instead of like a broken pathetic taxi to carry my brain around in.
I love my life. I live pain-free.
Are you a human?? Then you need this program!! Your body and soul will reap life changing benefits.”
Steffanie Frandsen
“I had a major tailbone issue for over 2 years combined with a tight pelvic floor. Nothing I did ever was ‘enough’ to get relief. Then I found RYC®! I signed up and can honestly say I felt a change immediately!
I started breathing more effectively, which I didn’t even know I was having issues with, and my tailbone started hurting less.
All I can say is I haven’t felt this strong, resilient or functional in over 20 years and it feels great!”
Vicki L.
“After completing RYC®, I am asymptomatic, have increased mobility, am more relaxed, and I can even go on a walk around our neighborhood with my family (1.25 miles!). RYC® has given me a community of support and an abundance of hope. I know that without a doubt I will continue to use RYC® on a regular basis for my whole life!
Mobility and bodily autonomy are invaluable and I have found such a wealth of information through RYC®.”
Brittany Czekaj
“I was scared to do just about everything because I didn’t want to make things worse.
Restore Your Core® gave me the permission I needed to move again, the grace to meet my body where it’s at, and tools to support my body holistically. The supportive and helpful community is the cherry on top, and I’m grateful to be a part of it.”
Katie Jackson
“I had no idea how much I would gain when I started RYC. I love Lauren’s teaching. I love the guiding principle that if you challenge your body in a way that is doable for where you are at today, you will build strength over time. This has 1000% been true for me and it feels amazing.
I feel fit and confident that I can challenge my body in all the right ways.”
LK
“RYC® explains the fundamentals of movement – and I finally understand that I spent so much energy compensating for core function with other body parts. Thanks to RYC®, I‘m now very close to getting back to my favorite activities.I can feel my core work during exercise and every day movements.
RYC® has taught me to work smarter, not harder.
At Stage 3 of the program, I feel so accomplished already—I can’t wait to see what Stage 4 brings!”
