Review This very thorough video can enhance patients' understanding of the function and anatomy of the pelvic floor and how pelvic floor exercises and improved posture can have a positive impact on continence and pelvic support. By watching the demonstrations of appropriate posture and practicing along with the lessons, patients can gain a better understanding of their condition and begin to achieve better control of their pelvic floor dysfunction. --Dr. Sandra Valaitis, MD, University of Chicago Medical Center, Chicago, ILI will be recommending this to all my postpartum moms. Love the graphics - the basket metaphor makes it easy to visualize what is happening inside as well as feel the muscles work. I also like the incorporation of moms and children into the workout. Thank you for this very important exercise DVD. --Gerri Ryan, LM, CPM, Midwife, Bonita, CATasha Mulligan has done an excellent job of organizing and progressing strengthening exercises of the pelvic floor, utilizing the approach with complete core training. An educated patient is the best type of patient to have...and Tasha achieves just that, as she leads her audience through a thorough description of anatomy and physiology of the pelvis and surrounding structures, creating a better understanding in the lay public of what is necessary to improve urinary continence and pelvic organ support. --Dee Hartmann, PT, Dee Hartmann Physical Therapy for Women, Chicago, IL

Best thing I did for my prolapse. You will not regret it!
Well worth the money and more. I currently go to physical therapy as referred by my OB due to pelvic organ prolapse (after having my second child). My PT only tells me to do kegels, but I told her about Han-it and she says that I should keep doing the Hab-it videos if I have them. Strengthening the core is known to help strengthen the pelvic floor (many articles and women's magazines recommend similar exercises that Tasha Mulligan includes in her DVD). I have been doing this DVD for 6 weeks (haven't skipped one day) and I feel a lot better. She says you can do every other day, but I had time due to maternity leave so I wanted to do as much as possible to improve faster. Just don't overdo the kegel portion.Tips:Go to her website Hab-it.com.1. She has the videos in downloadable format to put in your phone. I didn't see this till later. Alternatively you can download a program like handbrake for your computer to convert DVD to QuickTime video to put on your phone, which I did. This gave me no excuses. I also screenshotted the exercises and saved them on my phone so by the time I did these exercises for weeks I only needed to see the screenshot and not open the video to prompt me to do the exercises.2. She has a 7-day advanced workout so if these 4 workouts are getting too easy or you plateaued, buy the advanced workout! It's more variety, longer, and really kicks your butt. I bought this after I was doing all 4 exercises everyday and it was getting boring and long.A nice side effect of these exercises is I'm more toned and lost some weight too! I still have some prolapse but my PT says it feels a lot less and my kegels are stronger too. This is an amazing program.

Hab It: Pelvic Floor DVD helpful
I have used this now for a few months and have found it helpful. I already knew that I was having problems with a nervous bladder, but when I experienced a prolapse, I was frightened. After doing some research, I found that prior to any surgery or other medical things, a round of physical therapy would be ordered. I decided I'd rather do this in the privacy and comfort of my own home. Tasha Mulligan is a PT and specialized in this area. The anatomy and explanations are well done and well presented for visualization. This was important - and helpful - to me. Also helpful, is the quiet, matter of fact voice, the pace of the workouts, and her counting. I can't count, concentrate and exercise at the same time - I need someone else counting! It took a full month of using this on the FIRST set of workouts, before I could slightly feel the muscles move. It was in the second month that I began noticing the improvement of bladder issues, with the other nice side effect of seeing a slightly thinner waist and stomach muscles. The third month, the prolapse was not bothering me. I have followed up with my OBGYN who let me know I was doing the right thing and encouraged me to keep it up. I'm still only doing the first and part of the second sets of workouts. I am well-pleased with the results and grateful that Tasha Mulligan put it out.

If you're looking for something to help with pelvic floor issues. LOOK NO FURTHER!
Having had a background in anatomy and physiology as a outcome-based massage therapist, I am quite familiar with how the body works. I have been athletic all my life until I recently had two pregnancies back to back. Both, natural births at home, took quite a toll on my pelvic floor. My midwife had a few resources which I reviewed but knew they were missing a lot of information and/or had a lot of other information I didn't care for like healing the "spiritual" aspect of the pelvic floor. Hab-it Pelvic Floor is like going to a high quality physical therapist in your own living room! The price is minimal for the benefits you receive. I can't sing their praises enough. Very detailed, very clear and concise, exactly what was needed for me to be guided into healing and getting things back where they belong. Already seeing a difference and it's only been a few weeks in. Note: video includes excellent information segment and then exercise segment which is divided into four different workouts. You just have to do one of the workouts each time, three times a week. So one of the four, three times a week, any of the four. The fourth being the most difficult. Once you get used to how they go, there is even a section of time efficient workouts so you can save time. Love this DVD! Recommended it to my midwife and she is thrilled about it too - giving it to her clients in the future. May consider giving this as a gift to new moms!

I got results
I didn't review this after purchase because naturally, results won't happen from an un-boxing ;)I bought this years ago. Like any rehab, it takes patience and diligence but I'm glad I committed. I have better pelvic control. I lost sensation with intimacy which was devistating but long behold, after doing this, that isn't an issue anymore; my symptoms of prolapse have disappeared. It's not a cure for prolapse, but what a relief and better control and posture by following through. I have a rectocele (rectum prolapse) and probably a minor bladder prolapse.I gave it four stars because sometimes the demo is a little unclear and her voice is dry and monotone. It will be tiresome at first, keep at it.
