bladder control

[Guest guest]

Does any one have advice on bladder control besides kegels? The

person I am working with right now is having difficulty after having

twins c-sec. She said she soaked the bed one night and had to wear a

depends another. I know it can be a problem after child birth

especially after c-sec. Can it also be caused from being overly

tired? Overly vata? Thanks, Sonya

Hi Sonya;

Too bad everyone issed our phone conversatoin last night ... if you

can summarize key points and have the time to share, please do.

 

I'm hoping others will respond here.

 

I'm quite sure

> being overly tired? Overly vata?

are key parts of the picture. According to Dr. Saraswati Burhrman,

the yogic banda/(Ashwini mudra?) similar to the kegel will be more

effective for restoring bladder control, in that is pulls up and back

more engaging the rectal muscles also in the energy lock. When I

compare, energetically this feels more effective although the mind

says, but it is about the bladder muscles. The latter focus can be too

limited even though a kegel is supposed to engage also the rectal part

of that tripple figure 8 muscle. The yogic exercise focus establishes

a better integration with the kundalini seat/shakti.

 

I don't know if it relates here or not, but Nurse

practitioner/traditional midwife Shawna Doran in Alachua Florida

explained that excess estrogen in the system will also give even

perimenopausal women or others problems with bladder control. THe " 6

years postpartum " cliend I recently was working with has this problem

at age 33. (Hormonal testing showed progesterone on the floor, a

bigger issue than the estrogen for her, and she was advised to come

off the pill/patch. Due to the other complications of a high

Wellbutrin prescription, use of progesterone cream was temporarily

withheld while we watch other adjustments more critical).
