The Pelvic Floor & Incontinence (part one)

HERmd Season 3 Episode 3

"Urinary incontinence affects 1 in 3 women." Although an extremely prevalent issue, many don’t realize that urinary incontinence, or the involuntary leakage of urine, is 100% treatable. 

This is part one of two pelvic floor episodes with The Origin Physical Therapist, Dr. Ashley Rawlins where we unpack pelvic floor basics and incontinence. Stay tuned for part two, where we discuss the pelvic floor and painful sex.
