Focus on Urinary Incontinence
Many women suffer from urinary incontinence, or the leakage of urine at inappropriate times. Incontinence often occurs as the result of weakened bladder or pelvic floor muscles, which can be caused by a number of conditions including childbirth, surgery, infection or injury. Incontinence can be temporary or chronic—in either case, physical therapy can help.

How We Can Help
At Elite Physical Therapy, we offer the opportunity for women to regain control of their symptoms and their lives. We not only help ease your pain and discomfort through therapy, but we offer patient education so you can better understand the causes and treatment options for this condition.

Some specific ways we help treat incontinence are:

• Suggest dietary changes that can lessen bladder irritation, and behavioral changes that can help control urge

• Work with you to restrengthen bladder and pelvic floor muscles through Kegal and other exercises

• Implement biofeedback or electrical stimulation to improve muscle strength and stimulation
