Bladder & Bowel Control — Men & Women

Overactive Bladder

That sudden, urgent need to go — sometimes before you can reach the bathroom — along with frequent trips and waking through the night, is what we call overactive bladder. It is common, it is not something you simply have to live with, and it is not a character flaw or a sign of ageing you have to accept. Many people find real relief once the pelvic floor and bladder are supported properly, without medication or surgery.

What it is

When the bladder signals before it needs to

With overactive bladder, the bladder muscle sends an urgent “go now” signal even when it isn’t full. That can mean urgency, going far more often than feels normal, and getting up at night (nocturia). A pelvic floor that isn’t working in a coordinated way often makes these signals harder to manage.

Who it affects

More common than most people realise

Overactive bladder affects both women and men, and it becomes more common with age, after childbirth, around menopause, and after prostate surgery. Most people never mention it — which is exactly why it goes untreated for years. You are not alone in this, and raising it with us is simply the first practical step.

How we help

Supporting the pelvic floor that helps you hold

We begin by understanding your specific pattern, because the right approach depends on what is actually driving your symptoms.

EMSELLA® — Pelvic Floor Strengthening

EMSELLA® uses focused electromagnetic energy to prompt thousands of deep pelvic floor contractions per session — the kind that are hard to achieve on your own. You sit fully clothed for the session. Many patients find that a stronger, better-coordinated pelvic floor helps calm urgency and supports steadier bladder control over the course of a program. For some, hormone support also has a role, which we discuss at your assessment.

Shannon’s Credential — Certified Continence Advisor Shannon Lapointe holds the Certified Continence Advisor (CCA) designation — a postgraduate clinical credential focused specifically on urinary and fecal continence assessment and management. It means your assessment brings continence expertise that goes well beyond operating a device.
