PelvicTool – Pelvic Floor Trainer for Bladder Weakness and Incontinence
We can’t promise miracles. But the fact is: a trained muscle is stronger than an untrained one.
When the pelvic floor gives out
It often begins with a few drops of urine leaking while laughing, sneezing, or coughing. In more advanced stages, urine may escape during almost any movement, without the person even feeling the urge to urinate.
Bladder weakness can also present as a sudden, strong, and/or very frequent urge to urinate. The psychological burden of urinary and fecal incontinence is significant.
Incontinence remains a taboo topic – yet urinary incontinence is a common condition in older adults, affecting both women and men.
But staying silent doesn’t help: taking action is key to regaining quality of life.

What causes incontinence?
Incontinence can have many causes. Common risk factors include:
-
advancing age
-
being overweight
-
heavy physical work
-
congenital weakness in connective tissue
For women, pregnancy and especially vaginal childbirth place additional strain on the pelvic floor.
These factors can weaken or damage the pelvic floor muscles, which play a key role in the control of bladder and bowel function.
Although men are often affected later in life, by the age of 75, incontinence becomes just as common in men as in women.

Incontinence means loss of control
What are the psychological effects of incontinence? Thoughts increasingly revolve around one central question: Will I reach the next toilet in time?
Wearing incontinence products like pads often leads to feelings of shame, frustration, and low mood.
As a result, social contacts, hobbies, everyday activities, physical movement, leisure pursuits, and even sexual intimacy may suffer.
How can incontinence be treated?
You are not alone, and there is hope. If you’re experiencing bladder or bowel control problems, you’re among millions of adults who face this common challenge. Many people over 50 deal with incontinence, yet too often suffer in silence.
Incontinence is not something you have to live with. While it may feel embarrassing to discuss, speaking with your doctor is the first step toward regaining control and improving your quality of life.
There are several types of incontinence, and effective treatments are available for each:
- Stress incontinence – leaking when you cough, sneeze, or lift something
- Urge incontinence – sudden, strong urges to urinate
- Mixed incontinence – a combination of both types
Pelvic floor therapy: a proven first step
One of the most effective treatments is pelvic floor physical therapy. This specialized therapy helps you:
- Learn proper techniques for daily activities like lifting and carrying
- Strengthen the muscles that support your bladder and bowel
- Practice exercises to improve muscle control and awareness
- Reduce strain on these important muscles.
Pelvic floor therapy is offered by trained therapists and is often tailored to your specific symptoms and needs. You can find qualified professionals through national physiotherapy associations.
Alongside guided therapy, many clinics and individuals now rely on supportive tools that make pelvic floor training easier to continue at home. One such device is the Alonea PelvicTool – a non-invasive, user-friendly training aid that is already in use by physiotherapists and pelvic health specialists.
