Leaking urine when you sneeze, cough, jump, or run. Or that urgent, can't-make-it-to-the-bathroom feeling. These are the two most common forms of incontinence — and both are highly treatable with the right physical therapy. Pads are not the solution.

Understanding the Condition
WHAT IS INCONTINENCE?
Urinary incontinence is the involuntary loss of urine. It is not a normal part of aging or childbearing, despite how commonly it is dismissed as such. The pelvic floor, bladder, and surrounding musculature can be rehabilitated to restore continence in the majority of patients.
Stress Incontinence: Leaking with physical exertion — coughing, sneezing, jumping, running. Caused by insufficient pelvic floor support under increased intra-abdominal pressure. Responds very well to PT.
Urge Incontinence: Sudden, compelling urge to urinate that can't be deferred. Often involves bladder overactivity. Responds to bladder retraining and pelvic floor coordination work.
Mixed Incontinence: Elements of both stress and urge incontinence. Common in women who have had children. Treated with a combination of approaches.
Incontinence in Active Women: Leaking during exercise — running, box jumps, double-unders. This is stress incontinence under high-load conditions. It's fixable, and you don't have to modify your training permanently.
Treatment Approach
HOW WE TREAT IT
Incontinence PT goes far beyond Kegels. We assess the full pelvic floor system — coordination, strength, timing, and breathing mechanics — and treat what's actually driving the leaking.
01
Assessment & Baseline
Pelvic floor assessment to determine the specific dysfunction. Is it weakness, poor coordination, timing, or a combination? The treatment depends entirely on the finding.
02
Pelvic Floor Retraining
Targeted strengthening, coordination training, bladder retraining (for urge), and breathing mechanics that manage intra-abdominal pressure during activity.
03
Return to Full Activity
Progressive return to exercise — including high-impact activity — with a pelvic floor that can handle the load without leaking.
Typical Timeline6–10 weeks for most presentations. Many patients see significant improvement within 4 sessions.
