What kind of exercise therapy is useful for urinary incontinence?
The most common nonsurgical treatment for urinary incontinence is bladder exercise therapy. This involves bladder strengthening exercises and pelvic floor strengthening exercises. Kegel exercises are an important part of these therapies, as they help firm or contract the muscles inside the vagina. They also firm or contract muscles that work to hold in urine.
Your Younique provider can create an exercise regimen that matches your abilities and lifestyle. They can also suggest various treatments and medicines that will support your efforts to reach better control of your urine.
Does growing older always cause urinary incontinence?
Some of the possible effects of aging can contribute to urinary incontinence; however, urinary incontinence shouldn’t be considered a “normal” part of the aging process.
If you’re mature and experience urinary incontinence, we should have a consultation. You’ll be evaluated for the condition in the same way all other age groups are. We see urinary incontinence in people of all ages, so you don’t have to “just accept it” as you grow older.
