Abstract
The focus of this chapter is to explore nonsurgical and non-medicinal treatments of stress urinary incontinence (SUI), mixed urinary incontinence (MUI), and urgency urinary incontinence (UUI). Extensive literature search was performed for the identification of original research and review articles that allow for generalizations and specific outcomes to be described. We will begin with a review of incontinence prevention and an overview of the current state of preventative strategies for incontinence with a primary focus on stress urinary incontinence during and following pregnancy. The remainder of the chapter will focus on nonsurgical devices for SUI, impact of pelvic floor muscle therapy (PFMT) on the management of both SUI and UUI with specific consideration to urge suppression technique, Kegels, counterbracing maneuvers, and development of individualized training regiments.
