Joy Noble • October 30, 2023
Welcome to Pints & Pelvic Floors: The Podcast. In Episode 16, I review the five different types of urinary leakage and how pelvic floor therapy can help.
Episode 16 Recap:
The five types of urinary leakage:
- Stress incontinence
- Urge incontinence
- Mixed incontinence
- Functional incontinence
- Overflow incontinence
Pelvic floor therapy will look for issues related to the musculoskeletal system including muscle weakness, tightness, coordination issues, and the kinetic chain as well as bigger underlying pathology such as an enlarged prostate or a neurologic condition.

Recently a local provider slid into my DM’s to chat about a letter she received from her insurance boasting “no-cost digital pelvic PT” and her response is exactly the same as mine: WTF?
Okay so you read the books, took the classes, and followed the Instagrammers to get ready for labor and delivery. But did any of them talk about healing after c-section?
Listen, I have treated patients for pelvic floor concerns for over 11 years now so I have seen and heard A LOT!
