Learn how to reduce pain and resume an active life.

Urge incontinence is often called overactive bladder, unstable bladder, spasmodic bladder, detrusor instability, and or detrusor hyperreflexia. With urge incontinence, the bladder contracts at inappropriate times. This can occur in women and men for different reasons however the symptoms are the same: frequent urination, loss of urine unintentionally, and a sudden, strong need to urinate.

A study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine (March 18, 2008) reports that pelvic floor muscle training, in conjunction with bladder training, resolved the symptoms of urinary incontinence in women. The study included 96 randomized controlled trials and 3 systematic reviews from 1990 through 2007.

What’s the Buzz?

My daughter developed a stress fracture due to over-training and lack of proper guidance. She had to sit out her sophomore season and we were afraid her running career would be over. Her self-confidence was way down and we had serious concerns, but thanks to BreakThrough she is “back on track” and continuously improving her times as well as enjoyment for cross country. Thank you!

My shin splints were killing me and I had to pull out of my last race. Thanks to Prina helped me avoid needing a boot and really being on the sidelines. I am now increasing my mileage and am so excited to have the support of your Sports Performance Program!

I PR’ed this weekend and I cannot thank Irina enough for all the hard work and dedication she put in to help me accomplish my goal!!
