LEARN MOREUrinary incontinence
Urinary incontinence is more common than many people realize, yet it is often difficult to talk about. It can appear as occasional leaks when laughing, sneezing, or exercising, or as a sudden and frequent urge to go. These changes may develop gradually, especially after childbirth, during menopause, or with age, and can quietly affect daily comfort, confidence, and freedom.
Although incredibly personal, this concern is nothing to be ashamed of. The pelvic floor is a vital part of core health, and when it becomes weakened or less responsive, it deserves the same care and attention as any other part of the body.
Non-invasive solutions can help restore pelvic floor strength with advanced technologies designed to be comfortable, dignified, and effective. With the right care, it is possible to feel more at ease and confident in your everyday life.
What causes
urinary incontinence?
urinary incontinence?
Pelvic Floor Weakness
The pelvic floor muscles support the bladder, uterus, and bowel. When these muscles become weakened through childbirth, aging, hormonal changes, or lack of exercise, they may no longer provide adequate support. This can lead to leaks during moments of pressure like coughing, sneezing, or physical activity, a condition known as stress incontinence.
Hormonal Changes
Declining estrogen levels, especially after menopause, can affect the health of the bladder and urethra. Thinner tissues and reduced elasticity can lead to increased urgency, frequency, or involuntary leakage (urge incontinence or mixed incontinence).
Pregnancy and Childbirth
The physical demands of pregnancy and vaginal delivery may stretch or weaken the pelvic floor muscles, nerves, and connective tissue. This is especially true in cases of prolonged labour, larger babies, or multiple births. For some, bladder control issues may continue long after childbirth.
Aging and Muscle Atrophy
With age, the muscles and nerves involved in bladder control may function less efficiently. Reduced muscle tone and slower nerve signals can lead to accidental leakage, urgency, or a feeling of incomplete emptying.
Neurological or Medical Conditions
Conditions such as multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, stroke, or diabetes may interfere with the communication between the brain and the bladder. This disruption can lead to involuntary urination and typically requires medical evaluation for appropriate management.
At Victoria Park Medispa, we offer non-surgical, medically supervised treatments such as Emsella. This advanced technology uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy (HIFEM) to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles safely and comfortably. Whether your symptoms are mild or more persistent, we are here to help you regain comfort and control with compassionate guidance and personalized care.

FAQ
Got questions about urinary incontinence? We’ve got answers!
Can urinary incontinence improve without surgery?
Yes. Non-invasive options such as Emsella can significantly improve bladder control by strengthening the pelvic floor muscles using electromagnetic stimulation. Most clients notice improvement with no downtime.
Does a weak pelvic floor cause incontinence?
Yes. Weak or underactive pelvic floor muscles can lead to stress or urge incontinence. Strengthening these muscles through Emsella or similar therapies often reduces or resolves symptoms.
Is Emsella safe for everyone?
In most cases, yes. Emsella is well tolerated by many patients. Your provider will review your health history to ensure there are no contraindications such as implanted devices or active infections.
Can incontinence return after treatment?
It can. Without ongoing support, the pelvic floor may weaken again over time. Periodic Emsella sessions or a consistent home exercise routine can help maintain your results.
Does aging increase the risk of incontinence?
Yes. Age-related changes such as muscle atrophy and hormonal decline can reduce pelvic support, making bladder control more difficult. Treatments like Votiva or Emsella may help counteract these effects.
Is urinary incontinence a normal part of aging?
No. While more common with age, incontinence is not inevitable. Many people experience significant improvement with targeted non-surgical treatments.
Does childbirth cause incontinence?
It can. Vaginal delivery can stretch or weaken pelvic floor muscles and supporting tissue, increasing the likelihood of postpartum incontinence. Restorative options such as diVa or Votiva may help improve tone and function after childbirth.
Can men experience urinary incontinence?
Yes. Men may develop incontinence due to pelvic floor weakness or following prostate surgery. Strengthening the area with Emsella can support better control.
Can pelvic exercises alone fix incontinence?
For mild cases, regular Kegel exercises may be enough. Moderate or persistent symptoms usually benefit from additional support through in-clinic treatments like Emsella.
Is incontinence linked to other health problems?
Yes. Obesity, diabetes, neurological disorders, and chronic coughing or straining can increase the risk of bladder control issues by affecting pelvic function or nerve pathways.
Does drinking less water prevent incontinence?
No. Restricting fluids may actually irritate the bladder and concentrate urine, worsening symptoms. Staying properly hydrated supports healthier bladder habits and function.
