Study Groups

Pilates exercises
The Pilates method's exercises emphasize breathing and the activation of the deep stabilizing muscles of the trunk in coordination with the PFM. The pilates method consists of exercises that emphasize pelvic stability, mobility, and body alignment. PMFE are performed in tandem with breathing, with concurrent trunk muscle recruitment in various positions.
Shoulder bridge
The shoulder bridge is great for, strengthening your gluteal muscles, quadriceps, hamstrings, pelvic floor, abdominals and back muscles; most notably the tiny ones which control movement of each individual vertebrae and can weaken after episodes of back pain.
Clam shell
Scissors is an abdominal exercise that strengthens the transverse abdominals, helping flatten your belly and strengthen your entire core. Scissors is not only a core strength move, but it is also a great stretch for your hamstrings and your lower back.

Adductor squeeze
Adductor Squeeze exercise The SQ exercise is an isometric hip adduction exercise with the player holding a ball between their knees.
Pelvic clock supine
The pelvic clock is a brilliant exercise to help achieve flexibility and strength in the lower back, pelvic floor, and core-in order to prevent pain and injury.
Electrical muscle stimulation
Electric stimulation works by mimicking the natural way by which the body exercises its muscles. The electrodes attached to the skin deliver impulses that make the muscles contract. It is beneficial in increasing the patient's range of motion and improves the circulation of the body.
Pelvic floor exercise
These exercises are intended to strengthen weak perineal and pelvic floor muscles.

urine hold and tummy tuck in
During tummy tuck patients are able to strategically tighten and reinforce the muscles around the pelvic floor, urethra, and other structures. This increased strength and support greatly reduces stress urinary incontinence
Bridging
A bridge exercise isolates and strengthens your gluteus (butt) muscles - the gluteus maximus, medius and minimus - and hamstrings, which are the main muscles that make up the posterior chain. It is done by lying on your back with your knees bent, feet flat on the ground and at a comfortable distance from your butt.
Split table top
To strengthen your abs, shoulders, arms and legs. The most important part of this move is to contract your abs fully before you start to lower your hips
