Urinary Incontinence

Urinary incontinence is not a “normal” occurrence. It should completely resolve after childbirth and it’s not a normal problem of old age. Over 20 million women in the US have reported to suffer with urinary incontinence. It is estimated that another 10% never even report it. Once the cause is identified and properly treated by your physician and physical therapist 50% can be cured, 35% can experience significant improvement, and 15% made more comfortable.
