Is this appropriate for someone with a hypertonic pelvic floor?

You should see an in-person pelvic floor physical therapist if you have a hypertonic (tight) pelvic floor. They will give you a personalized program of stretches, breathing techniques and internal release work that can help relax the muscles.

You can continue to do the workouts here, but make sure to follow-up with stretches and internal release given by your physical therapist. You should also avoid the pelvic floor strengthening-specific work.
