Incontinence is the involuntary loss of bladder and bowel control. It is very common and about 25% of Australians (over 5 millions) are incontinent, affecting all ages and backgrounds. 80% of people with urinary incontinence are women.
Our pelvic floor muscles, slinging from the tail bone to the pubic bone at the front of the body, are responsible for supporting the bladder, bowel and uterus. These supporting structures are crucial to our urinary and faecal continence. Pregnancy, childbirth aging, menopause, obesity, lack of exercise, high impact exercise and chronic back pain are common reasons for weakened pelvic floor muscles. Other health conditions such as diabetes, stroke, heart issues and prostate problems can also cause incontinence.
There are various types of incontinence. The most common are urge incontinence (a sudden and strong need to urinate), stress incontinence (leakage during activities such as sneezing, coughing, laughing, exercising), and overflow incontinence (inability to empty the bladder properly).
Incontinence can be managed and prevented with a healthy diet and lifestyle. Exercises to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles also effectively helps reduce the impact of incontinence, possibly regaining the full control in some people. For severe cases, surgery may be the only option. However, thanks to FMS (Functional Magnetic Stimulation) technology, we can now access to a completely non-invasive and clinically proven option for treating weakened pelvic floor muscles with our medical grade device, TESLAChair.
