ABSTRACT:
A device and method for treating urinary as well as fecal incontinence by using proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation. The device is adapted to be compressively positioned against the crotch of the user to thus identify target pelvic floor muscles and muscle groups responsible for urinary and/or fecal continence and provide periodic stimulus thereto by way of pressure, stretching, resistance, vibration, and/or heat. The frequency, duration, and extent of the stimulus may be varied as desired for exercise regimens.
