Pelvic Floor Focus: Create Health for the PERSON through PhysioYoga

Our pelvic floor plays a role in many aspects of our existence that contribute to a healthy life, including breathing, bowel and bladder function, sexual function, hip function, core timing, and more.
For both men and women, pelvic health issues such as pelvic pain, incontinence, constipation, pelvic organ prolapse, and sexual dysfunctions are often poorly addressed or left untreated. Shelly created PhysioYoga from her extensive training and experience, resulting in a valuable, unique and evidence-based approach that provides a variety of options to maximize pelvic floor health and overall wellness.
Join Shelly Prosko, physiotherapist and yoga therapist for this inspiring, educational, empowering and fun two-part workshop that includes theory and practice.
