Episode 26
This episode is all about the Innovo. The Innovo is a non-invasive way to strengthen the pelvic floor to help improve stress urinary incontinence. It is a pair of shorts that uses an electrical strimulation to contract the pelvic floor. The sorts are designed to be more for 30 minutes 5 times per week and should improve incontinence in 12 weeks. No prescription is needed to obtain this device.
In this episode, I talk to Ruth Maher who helped design this device based on her work as a physical therapist. I tried the shorts before the episode and had some trouble getting them to contract my pelvic floor. Ruth helped me to trouble-shoot why and get them to work. Come listen!
