Adult Incontinence

Kegel exerciser is an alternative adult incontinence treatment and helps with exercise after pregnancy.

Birth of a baby is one of nature’s most beautiful and meaningful experiences, which can often turn out to be a difficult and painful process with great health risks. From many years women have struggled and suffered through the process, believing that the agonizing pain they must endure is inevitable.

The PC muscle of women, which helps and supports internal organs as well as the fetus, uterus, amniotic fluid and the placenta, is highly strained during pregnancy. With the weighty load pressing down on it, the muscle tends to stretch and sag. No longer as flexible and tight, some of the vital functions of the muscle are affected. One of the key functions of the PC muscle is urinary control and regulation. Stretching of the muscle keeps it from properly contracting. The flaccid muscle causes uncontrollable leakage of urine, a condition referred to as stress incontinence.
