My Back Hurt!
After having my second child, my body became weak and I became incontinent. Since I was so embarrassed about wearing a pad on a daily basis I learned to live with my little secret for several years. I didn??????t even tell my doctor about it. Six months ago I developed back pain and went to MRPT Physical Therapy for treatment. One of the first questions my therapist asked me was if I had any urine leakage after childbirth. A feeling of relief came over me when I finally let someone know my secrete. My therapist explained that up to one third of all American women experience incontinence sometime in their life and most do not seek treatment because they are embarrassed. I also found out that weak pelvic floor muscles can lead to chronic back and neck pain! After six weeks of doing the MRPT CORE SOLUTION! exercises my back pain went away and I threw the last of my pads away. I no longer have a life revolved around ??????bathroom to bathroom??????. Any time I left my home I would consciously make a mental map of bathroom locations and which ones I would use along the way. Now I feel confident, and can go through the day without feeling the anxiety of making sure I get to the bathroom on time. As an extra added plus ?????? I have not had any back pain in the past three months. Gloria M., Manhattan, NY
