Do you suffer from leaking when you sneeze or even have a hard time holding in until you’re able to find a restroom?
If your answer was yes then you may be one of the thousands of people suffering from incontinence issues but don’t worry, you’re not alone!
We all know the summer is here and that equals more physical activities, getting out of our routines to enjoy plans with friends and family or even long-distance car rides or flights but that also means that your incontinence issues will seem to be at their all-time high.
There is a solution other than packing a change of pants and hoping for the best. I’m not talking about surgeries or injections or anything of the sort.
I’m talking about holistic manual therapy and Body Motion Physical Therapy can help you with just that! Our Pelvic Expert Physical Therapist specializes in these sorts of things and have helped hundreds of other people just like you who may have been suffering from this for several months, several years, or their whole life!
We’re able to use manual therapy to help break up adhesions in your scar tissue so it promotes healthy movement in all the areas of your pelvic floor. They also provide breathing and bathroom techniques that can help eliminate the stress of leaking and urgency.
Even if the leaks are few and far between they are a sign of pelvic floor dysfunction and we are huge advocates for prioritizing your pelvic wellness before you it gets worse.
