Bladder & Bowel Control — Men & Women

Stress Incontinence

A little leak when you cough, laugh, sneeze, lift, or work out — that’s stress incontinence, and it’s one of the most common (and most fixable-feeling) reasons people quietly reach for pads. It happens when the pelvic floor can’t quite hold against a sudden increase in pressure. Many patients find meaningful improvement once those supporting muscles and tissues are strengthened, without surgery.

What it is

Leakage under pressure, not urgency

Stress incontinence is leakage triggered by physical pressure — a cough, a laugh, a jump, a heavy lift. Unlike overactive bladder, there’s usually no urgent warning; the pelvic floor simply can’t seal against the sudden load. It often follows pregnancy, childbirth, menopause, or (in men) prostate surgery.

Who it affects

Common, and rarely talked about

It affects women most often, particularly after childbirth and around menopause, and it affects men after prostate surgery. It is extremely common — and equally common to say nothing about it for years. Bringing it to us is simply a practical step toward feeling like yourself again.

How we help

Strengthening the support that holds

We assess what’s contributing to your leakage first, then build a plan around it.

EMSELLA® — Pelvic Floor Strengthening

EMSELLA® prompts thousands of deep pelvic floor contractions per session while you sit fully clothed — helping rebuild the strength and coordination that hold against pressure. Many patients find their leaking eases over a course of sessions.

O-Shot® PRP — for women

For women, the O-Shot® uses your own platelet-rich plasma to support the tissue around the urethra and bladder neck. Used alongside EMSELLA®, it supports both the muscular and the tissue side of stress incontinence.

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.
