| Overstretching your pelvic floor and small muscle tears are very common occurrences. The good news is that Kegel exercises have been consistently found to be an important factor for women in regaining and maintaining a healthy, strong pelvic floor, since regular exercise can compensate for small muscle tears. These exercises are most effective when performed against resistance and with biofeedback. | |
