Yoga for incontinence - strengthening of the pelvic floor
What is incontinence?
Incontinence describes the condition of not being able to hold urine. The person concerned loses control of their bladder and, in rare cases, their bowels. Incontinence is often a side effect of a disease such as Alzheimer's or MS or occurs as a result of a stroke. Incontinence can also occur as a side effect of medication or after pregnancy. The causes of incontinence are varied, but it is still a taboo subject for most people. In addition to useful aids that make everyday life easier and protect you from unpleasant situations, physical activity can also contribute to improvement and, above all, to a better feeling. There are also strong yoga exercises that support and strengthen the pelvic floor.
