PFilates Pfilates was created by a board certified Urogynecologist to help people who have issues with urinary incontinence, prolapse and sexual dysfunction.

Pfilates goes beyond Kegel exercises by using movements that condition the pelvic floor but also tone the thighs and butt. Using pilates exercises based on extensive EMG recordings taken from the pelvic floor, Pfilates was created to provide a widely accessible method of recovering or enhancing pelvic floor strength.

Leaks during sport are common. Hardly anyone asks about them.

Among 368 elite female footballers, only 1 in 5 had ever been asked about leaking by a doctor, and fewer than 1 in 10 by a coach or physio. (Orhant 2026, Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport.)

To be clear: this is from the abstract only, in elite French players. How common leaks looked depended a lot on how the question was asked, so this is not a count of how many players leak. It shows how rarely anyone asks. Please talk with your own doctor about any leakage, even if nobody has asked you.

PfilAtes™ is the pelvic floor program I built as a urogynecologist. About 10 minutes a day. 80% of people who use the program improved by at least 50% in 28 days. Lifetime access is $149.

Think you're doing your Kegel right? Most women do. Far fewer actually are.

In one study of 72 women with leakage, 71% thought they could squeeze their pelvic floor correctly. When checked, 24% actually could, and 17% pushed down instead of lifting. (Khadgi, Stuge, Bø et al. 2026, Brazilian Journal of Physical Therapy.)

To be fair to the study: it is from the abstract only, in women aged 18 to 45 in Nepal. It shows why checking and coaching matter, not that Kegels never work. This study tested pelvic floor training in general, not PfilAtes™.

That is why PfilAtes™ isn't one squeeze. We tested 120 movements and kept the 10 best.

One in eight American adults is on a medication for depression. We treat downstream at massive scale, and leave the upstream levers, training and nutrition, almost untouched. That gap is the story.

Losing muscle with age is linked to bladder leaks.

Across 7 studies of 45,273 adults, people with age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia) had higher odds of urinary incontinence. (Guo 2026, BMC Geriatrics.)

What it does and doesn't show: it is a link, not proof of cause, and most studies were snapshots in time. It included men and women and was not about menopause alone. It does not show that exercise or PfilAtes™ reverses it. Please talk with your own doctor about any leakage.

PfilAtes™ is the pelvic floor program I built as a urogynecologist. About 10 minutes a day. 80% of people who use the program improved by at least 50% in 28 days. Lifetime access is $149.

Bladder control is a fitness issue. Your pelvic floor is a group of muscles, and muscles respond to training. Leaks are a reason to train, not something you just have to put up with.

We fixed the anatomy, yet 13 to 30% still leaked. My fistula repair work in West Africa taught me that surgery alone wasn't the full answer. Function matters as much as structure. That lesson became the foundation of PfilAtes™.

A urogynecologist with 5,000 surgeries on the treatment options that get overlooked. I'm Dr. Bruce Crawford. Surgery has its place, but many women are never told that training the pelvic floor can change everything. That's why I created PfilAtes™.

Menopause and muscle. Lower estrogen affects the pelvic tissues, including the va**na, urethra and bladder, which makes leaks more likely. And keeping muscle takes more work as we get older. Strength training becomes more important, not less, pelvic floor included.

Your pelvic floor is part of your core. Our EMG study suggests the 10 PfilAtes™ movements produce 21% to 56% more pelvic floor activity than a person's own Kegel. Your own best two or three movements may give you even more, as much as 200% to 300% more for some people. That's how PfilAtes™ is designed. Women: https://www.pfilates.com/womens-course.
