Strong From the Inside Out: Why Pelvic Floor Health Matters for Your Bones

On this episode of Bone Talk, BHOF Claire Gill is joined by Ingrid

Harm-Ernandes, PT, WCS, BCB-PMD to unpack a topic many overlook in bone

health conversations: the pelvic floor. Their discussion reveals how this

hidden muscle system plays a critical role in strength, balance, mobility,

and fall prevention. The pelvic floor is more than just a support

structure. It acts as a foundation for the body, working in coordination

with the core, hips, and spine. When functioning properly, it supports

organs, controls bladder and bowel function, contributes to sexual health,

and stabilizes movement. When it is weak or not functioning correctly, it

can increase the risk of falls and fractures.
