How Do Our Western MA Pelvic PT's Manage Urinary Incontinence?
Urinary incontinence is more common than you think—but it’s not normal, and it’s not something you have to live with. If you experience bladder leaks when you laugh, sneeze, or exercise, or if you struggle with sudden urges to go, you’re not alone. The good news? Pelvic floor physical therapy can help you regain control and confidence.
At Renew Health, our Western MA pelvic floor specialists are dedicated to helping you understand and treat urinary incontinence using a whole-body, personalized approach—no "Kegels-only" programs here.
Our Western MA pelvic floor physical therapists specialize in assessing and treating pelvic floor disorders. We begin with a comprehensive evaluation to identify the underlying causes of your incontinence. Based on this assessment, we develop a personalized treatment plan that may include:
Bladder Retraining: Techniques to enhance bladder control and reduce urinary frequency
Behavioral Strategies: Education on lifestyle modifications and toileting habits
Manual Therapy: Hands-on techniques to address muscle tension and pelvic floor dysfunction
Pelvic Floor Muscle Training & Breath Work: Targeted exercises to improve pelvic floor strength and coordination
Whole Body Approach: We take a "systems" approach to treating the pelvic floor that involves looking at your spine, hips, posture, foot/ankle mechanics and more
Why Does Urinary Incontinence Happen?
Urinary incontinence occurs when the muscles that control bladder function become weak, tight, or uncoordinated. This can be due to:
✔ Pregnancy & childbirth (but leaks aren’t a “normal” part of motherhood!)
✔ Pelvic floor muscle dysfunction (too weak OR too tight)
✔ Hormonal changes during perimenopause & menopause
✔ Chronic constipation, posture, or core weakness
✔ Previous pelvic surgery or neurological conditions
Most importantly—bladder leaks are NOT an inevitable part of aging.
Types of Urinary Incontinence
Stress incontinence: Leakage triggered by activities like laughing, exercising, or sneezing
Urge incontinence: Sudden, uncontrollable urges to urinate
Functional incontinence: Inability to reach the bathroom in time due to physical limitations
Mixed incontinence: A combination of stress incontinence and urge incontinence
