HealthWorks is committed to assisting you with managing the progressively debilitating effects of urinary incontinence. In consultation with your physician, a licensed physical therapist who is specially trained in incontinence management, will design your plan of care. After evaluating your symptoms, the therapist works with you to develop treatment – more... goals, making sure you understand how the treatment works. Comprehensive evaluations are performed in private treatment areas and all medical information is kept strictly confidential.
Your rehabilitation program may include a variety of different treatment methods. First, your program will include education about the bladder, pelvic floor muscles, and normal emptying techniques. It will also consist of special exercises designed to prevent, decrease, or even stop the leakage of urine altogether by strengthening your pelvic floor muscles. The physical therapist may also use therapeutic modalities, such as EMG/biofeedback and/or electrical stimulation to assist you with gaining an awareness of the muscles that control the bladder. Furthermore, your program may address lifestyle changes such as retraining the bladder through scheduled times for urination.
Regaining control of your body creates renewed self-esteem, confidence, and the freedom to fully participate in social activities without fear of embarrassing accidents. If you think you would benefit from physical therapy for the prevention or management of your symptoms, or if you have any questions regarding the Women's Health Program, please contact Krystal Thomas, PT, MS, CRC at HealthWorks, Morgantown location, at (304) 599-2515.
