Episode 102: Urinary Incontinence: The Truth.

Do you know that you don’t just have to live with urinary incontinence? And it is not something that just happens as you age. Young women develop urinary incontinence too. In fact, one in three women who have had children will develop the condition. I am grateful to be joined by an expert in women’s pelvic health to demystify urinary incontinence. Samantha King is a physiotherapist with 10 years experience specialising in this field. Tune in to understand the cause and symptoms of the condition. We also: Remove the shame associated with talking about the condition. Explore the benefits of pelvic floor training and being guided by a trained physiotherapist. Discuss the benefits of weight loss to reduce the occurrence of stress incontinence. Now focusing on weight loss can be stressful, frustrating, and overwhelming, which is the last thing you need when you have urinary incontenence, so we discuss the benefits of non-diet and non-weight-focused approaches to achieving your natural healthy weight.
