SHARE Saturday, December 5, 2009 The Use of Electromyographic Biofeedback for Training Pelvic Floor Musculature (1993 views)
The core behavioral treatment of urinary incontinence is pelvic muscle re-education. Biofeedback "takes the guesswork out of pelvic muscle training" (reference NIDDK) because it enables the patient to improve pelvic muscle function through muscle awareness, which, when combined with a home exercise program, leads to increased muscle strength and improved coordination.
