Program Overview..
Feel SOMA Pelvic Floor Program
The pelvic floor is a vital contributor to everyday living, influencing breathing, movement, and function in both men and women. Yet, it can be compromised by factors such as birth, physical or emotional trauma, occupational demands, repetitive movements, and dehydration. Traditional pelvic rehabilitation often focuses on isolated strengthening exercises, but these approaches rarely deliver long-term success.
At Feel SOMA, we adopt a comprehensive reconditioning approach. Instead of isolating one tissue as the problem, we consider the entire system — nerves, muscles, fascia, bone, skin, blood, and lymph. This inclusive method acknowledges the interconnected nature of the body, emphasising neural communication, fluid flow, and mechanical patterns as the foundation for lasting change.
Our program uses practical self-care applications (rollers, balls), guided Fascial Mobilisers, and targeted drills. Rather than static stretches, we focus on restoring adaptability and integration across the whole pelvic region, resetting tissues that may store stress or tension from trauma, protection, dehydration, repetitive patterns, or emotion.
Program Structure
- Metric: Check how you feel and move before beginning.
- SME (Self Myofascial Engagement): Standing (wall) or lying (floor). Targets muscular and fascial regions, encouraging hydration, lubrication, and improved neural communication.
- SFM (Self Fascial Mobilisers): Low-speed, low-force movements for bone and fascia, improving mobility and stability. It’s motion, NOT a stretch.
- Drills: Add controlled load or stability, preparing tissues for everyday function.
- Re-Metric: Re-check after the session to feel the difference.
Program Suggestion
- Day 1: Metric → 1 × SME or SFM application.
- Day 2: Metric → the other application.
This helps you notice which method creates greater change for your tissues.
Instructions
- Breathing: 4 seconds in (nose), 4 seconds out (nose). This calms the nervous system and prepares tissues.
- SME (Roller): 60–90 seconds per region × 1 set.
- SFM (Mobilisers): 30–45 seconds per move × 1–2 sets.
- Hydration: Keep water intake up during the program.
- Approach: Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. Less is more — listen to your tissues.
