Interstitial Cystitis Pelvic Floor Management Pathway - A step by step guide.

A clear, gentle plan for pelvic-floor-linked IC/BPS symptoms

If your bladder pain, urgency, frequency or urethral burning changes with sitting, stress, constipation, posture or exercise, pelvic floor tension may be part of the picture. This digital pathway helps you understand those patterns and build a calm, practical routine - without jumping straight into Kegels or pushing through pain.

Created by IC Ally, the bundle brings the education, exercises, trackers and planning tools together in one structured 12-week pathway you can follow at your own pace.

• IC Pelvic Floor Management Pathway: the evidence-informed, step-by-step guide to recognising pelvic floor involvement, calming tension, managing flares and rebuilding movement gradually.

• Pelvic Floor Calm Toolkit: printable self-checks, trigger trackers and practical calm-plan pages to help you spot patterns and record what helps.

• Body Confidence Without Flares: a gentle, pelvic-floor-friendly movement guide designed to support your tummy, waist, hips and posture without gripping, straining or forcing.
