Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy for Bladder and Bowel Concerns

Presented by: • Calvin Wong, MPT, MRSc - Registered Physical Therapist • Urinary incontinence (UI), or urgency can occur following prostate cancer treatment. UI is when urine comes out of the bladder when you don’t want it to. Urgency is a sudden, intense, uncomfortable need to pass urine. Having your prostate removed can cause leakage. Radiation therapy can cause urgency. Most men regain bladder control within a few months, but a small percentage will have continued long-term leakage or urgency. Bladder problems can be an embarrassing topic to talk about, but there are treatments available. • We hold a 1.5-hour group education session each month held by a Registered Physiotherapist with special training in male pelvic floor. Patients who are experiencing urgency or incontinence 12-weeks following surgery can take advantage of 3 complimentary one-on-one clinical appointments with our pelvic floor physiotherapist. • For more information: • https://pcscprogram.ca/module-5/ • Recorded July 2024
