  • Summary

  • Did you know that one in three women leak urine when they cough, sneeze, jump or run? That’s a huge figure and our guest thinks it’s an underestimate too. Pelvic health physiotherapist Emma Brockwell joins Dr. Juliet McGrattan to talk about stress urinary incontinence. Emma is a leading expert in women’s pelvic health with national and international influence. She’s passionate about raising awareness, educating and encouraging women to prioritize their pelvic health. We learn who is most likely to be affected by stress incontinence, why every woman needs to take action, and what to expect when you go and see a women’s health physio. Emma drills down into what’s known about running technique and leaky bladders as well as which exercises are beneficial for runners with stress incontinence. You’ll most definitely find yourself squeezing your pelvic floor muscles while you listen and there’s lots of tips on how to do it correctly. The take home message is that all women need to get familiar with, and strengthen their pelvic floor and if you’re leaking – get an expert assessment.
