I came to Amy Robinson at restore your core for help with the dreaded……
STRESS INCONTENANCE!!!!!
I am a 50 year old woman who is very active and I had just gotten absolutely fed up with feeling like I can no longer take part in certain activities for fear I’d leak urine. Not only that, but a sneeze, a cough, or good laugh had the same result as jumping up and down, and don’t even ask about when I was sick with the flu and throwing up……not pretty !!!!
With a background in surgery, I am all for going under the knife and fixing the problem. Unfortunately, for this particular problem, I was afraid the cure would be worse than the “disease”. So when my nurse practitioner suggested I give Amy a try, I reluctantly agreed (and I say reluctantly because I had her number for probably 3 or 4 months before calling her, just because). Let me tell you, don’t wait – the sooner you get started, the sooner you can stop leaking !!!!!!
Don’t get me wrong, I would rather this be easily fixable by surgery so I would not have to work at it, (lol, right ?!!) and…..you will have to work at it. But, Amy’s method of peeling the layers back to find out what is actually causing the problem and then starting from there to build the strength, timing and reaction of your pelvic floor can lead you to a dryer existence !!!
Amy is professional, personable and has the grace to handle this delicate issue. She understands the resistance to want to discuss the problem let alone ask for assistance and she instantly put me at ease with the situation. She has the experience and knowledge to explain what is going on with your body and works at your pace and level of progress to help you resolve the issue. I can’t say enough good things about Amy and her practice. If you are on the fence about whether to give this a try, I tell you from experience, it will help !!!!
