Disclaimer for Holistic Core Restore®

The session and homework exercises within the Holistic Core Restore®  programmes  were created for women requiring a general programme to strengthen their Pelvic Floor and entire core and those suffering from the symptoms of ‘Genuine Urinary Stress Incontinence’ – in simple terms, as pressure is created in your core, your weakened Pelvic Floor muscles aren’t able to do their job of supporting  your outlets, namely your urethra (where you pee from), your bladder, your vagina and your anus/rectum.

There are many other symptoms and causes of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction and incontinence including neural dysfunction and structural dysfunction such as Prolapse (which can happen to any of the pelvic organs and has varying degrees).  In extreme/clinical cases, it would be prudent to seek help from a specialist Women’s Health Physiotherapist/Physical Therapist, a Gynaecologist or Obstetrician as your recovery might require a greater level of intervention.  But rest assured, seeking more thorough help IS the way to go.  Don’t take a short-cut when it comes to your health.

The content of all of the programmes are not intended as substitute for a thorough medical evaluation and treatment of your condition and each Ambassador will take you through an extremely through Health Questionnaire and screening system BEFORE deciding whether the programme is right for you.
