She explores the difference between isolated “core” work and the true, whole-body philosophy Joseph Pilates intended, explaining why squeezing, clenching, and forcing strength can sometimes make symptoms worse.You’ll discover how to recognise whether your Pilates practice is truly supporting your pelvic health, what questions to ask your teacher, and how to approach movement through a whole body lens that restores balance, confidence, and trust in your body.Whether you’re a woman living with prolapse or a Pilates teacher supporting clients, this episode offers clarity, empowerment, and practical next steps to help you move forward with hope.Listen now to learn:Why not all Pilates is created equalHow “core” cues can actually increase prolapse symptomsThe importance of whole-body integration and breathHow to find or become a Whole Body Pelvic Health-informed teacherSteps to build confidence and autonomy in your body againLearn more about Claire’s Whole Body Pelvic Health Membership and teacher mentorship at wholebodypelvichealth.co.uk
