In-Home Physical Therapy for Incontinence
FIND RELIEF NOW!
Leaking a little when you laugh, run, or lift isn’t something you have to accept as “just how it is now.” Urinary incontinence, whether it shows up as a sudden urge you can’t outrun or a small leak during a workout, is common, but it’s also treatable. At Active Health Solutions, our in-home physical therapists help active individuals across DC, Northern Virginia, and Maryland get back to their runs, their workouts, and their routines without planning around a bathroom.
A Patient’s Journey to Incontinence Relief
For over 30 years, Tina didn’t realize she’d been going to the bathroom incorrectly, a root cause of pelvic floor issues she’d lived with since childhood. Working with her pelvic floor therapist Marina, she finally learned proper technique for both urination and bowel movements. That foundational relearning, paired with core strengthening, has made a lasting difference in her day-to-day comfort and function. Tina says the progress she’s made is something she never thought possible.

What Causes Incontinence?
Incontinence isn’t one single condition. It’s a symptom with several possible root causes, including:
- Weakness or poor coordination in the pelvic floor muscles
- Pregnancy and childbirth, which can stretch or strain pelvic floor support
- High-impact training (running, CrossFit, jumping sports) that places repeated load on the pelvic floor
- Poor breathing mechanics or core-pelvic floor coordination
- Post-surgical changes following abdominal or pelvic procedures
Whatever the cause, the goal of pelvic floor physical therapy is the same: identify what’s actually driving the leakage and build a plan to fix it, not just manage around it.
What to Expect
Call today to request an appointment at Active Health Solutions and meet with one of our pelvic health specialists!
Here’s how we approach incontinence care:
- Comprehensive evaluation. We start with a detailed conversation about your symptoms, history, and goals, including what specific movements or moments trigger leakage.
- Hands-on, private assessment. Your therapist evaluates pelvic floor strength, coordination, and any restrictions, always in a private, one-on-one setting.
- Functional testing. We look at how your pelvic floor performs during the actual activities that matter to you: running, lifting, jumping, or daily tasks, not just at rest.
- A personalized treatment plan. Using pelvic floor muscle training, biofeedback, manual therapy, and breathing/coordination work, we build a plan around your specific pattern of dysfunction and your activity goals.

Getting Back to What You Love
Incontinence can quietly shrink your world: skipping workouts, avoiding certain exercises, mapping out bathrooms before you leave the house. You don’t have to train around it forever. With the right evaluation and a plan built for your body, most patients see meaningful improvement in bladder control and confidence.
