How many reps each time we so the exercises?

[@deirdrejefferies4181]

I just read on NHS website that you should try a set of 5 slow hold squeezes, followed by 5 quick squeezes 4 times a day?

[@JustLIkerapunzel]

But how many "reps"? I assume just one time 10 second 3-4 times a day won't cut it?!

Why not do breathing exercises instead of Repetitions eg breathe for 5seconds. At least your incorporating the Diaphragm during the exercises. In my experience Patients who suffer pelvic floor problems are upper respiratory breathers. Thank you for a brilliant video. Kindest Regards Stuart
