00:00

This episode of the Marrón Pelvic Health Podcast, hosted by Dr. Kari Roberts, explores the uncomfortable feeling of pelvic pressure or heaviness that many people experience but rarely talk about. While some assume this sensation is just normal after childbirth or aging, pressure in the pelvis can also be related to pelvic floor muscle weakness, organ support changes, or strain. The podcast highlights the importance of recognizing what your pelvic floor may be signaling and why these symptoms should not be ignored. Dr. Roberts explains that pelvic physical therapy can help through targeted assessments, education, and exercises designed to restore support, reduce discomfort, and improve function. Understanding these signals is key to protecting long term pelvic health.
