Statistics show the West Midlands as having the highest fertility rate in England and Wales. That means a lot of mums with a lot of potentially weak or problematic pelvic floor muscles!
Channel 4’s Embarrassing Bodies programme is inviting the women of Birmingham to take part in a mass pelvic floor muscle exercise session on Wednesday October 29, 2008.
The event takes place in Victoria Square, Birmingham.
Mums are welcome to take children along too.
Your involvement will raise awareness about the importance of the Pelvic Floor Muscle, and help sufferers seek the treatment they need.
You may also be able to get a consultation with one of Embarrassing Bodies’ GPs in the show’s mobile clinic.
