The Elevator

Graduated lift

Pelvic floor

How to

Imagine the pelvic floor as an elevator. Lift to the first floor and pause, then the second, then the third — a gentle staged squeeze — before releasing one floor at a time.

Benefits

  • Teaches graded control instead of one all-or-nothing squeeze
  • Sharpens body awareness of the different pelvic floor layers
  • A useful step after childbirth or pelvic surgery

Practice

Three floors up, pause at the top, three floors back down. Slower is more effective here than stronger.
