107 - Fascia, Pelvic Floor and the Forgotten Fundamentals: Why Your Body Isn't Broken with Jana Danielson

About this episode

Jana Danielson shares her journey from chronic pain to health sovereignty through breathing and pelvic floor awareness.

In her 20's, Jana Danielson got off of 11 medications, ended chronic pain, and reclaimed her body and health sovereignty, and it had nothing to do with doctors, surgeries, or even supplements. One MAJOR factor? Learning how to breathe again. Pretty simple but how many focus on their breath to heal? In this episode, I sit down with Jana Danielson, Pilates master instructor, fascia expert, and creator of the Cooch Ball — a simple, multi-purpose pelvic floor fitness tool. Jana went from a 21-year-old on 11 daily prescriptions, dismissed by her own doctor, to becoming pain-free and an advocate and teacher to others wanting to do the same. I've never studied the importance of the pelvic floor personally, so I am so grateful for coming across Jana and her work. She makes it so interesting and practical, and explains clearly this essential component to our good health - for women AND men. We all have pelvic floors and pelvic floor health is not just for women! You will learn how there is a good chance your pelvic floor is too tight rather than too weak, how your toes and feet are affecting you, the crazy connection between your big toe and pelvic floor and so, so much more!
