Female Reproductive System: Uterine Tone, Bladder, and Pelvic Floor

Female Reproductive System: Uterine Tone, Bladder, and Pelvic Floor 

Structural - Wisdom - Harmony

Empower yourself with a lifetimes of knowledge on pelvic health.
"The kidneys are associated with the reproductive system in Chinese medicine and very often we see this connection, which we will mention in our class. However, this subject will also be taken up on female and male reproduction and endocrine classes. The adrenals, sitting atop the kidneys, will not be described here in detail--see the endocrine class." - Matthew Wood

Knowledge that goes beyond hormones!

Learn about how the structures of the reproductive tract can be injured or debilitated; we need to know how to approach them, not just through the hormonal theory, but through knowledge of the structural components: the tendons that hold up the uterus (affecting the back), the muscles and nerves of the uterus itself, the bladder, cervix, vagina, mucosa, and the balance of tendons, ligaments, muscles, and joints which make up the pelvic floor. Prolapse, fibroids, uterine polyps, tipped uterus, bladder problems, structural anomalies. In this segment we share lifetimes of knowledge about strengthening, nourishing, relaxing, or toning various tissues and organs of the tract.

"In the female reproductive system, the bladder, vagina, and uterus are tied together by location and influence of function. The uterus sits atop the bladder and the vagina sits next to it. Oftentimes, the health of the bladder and the health of the vagina become interconnected as they are both mucous membrane tissues. This is especially true in the area of bacterial infection of the bladder." - Phyllis D. Light
