Bladder leakage and incontinence are among the most common conditions affecting women, yet they are rarely talked about openly. Our Colorado Springs team offers non-invasive and non-surgical treatments designed to strengthen the pelvic floor and support better bladder control.
Understanding Your Concern
Incontinence is one of the most common and least-discussed consequences of pelvic floor changes, and it affects far more people than the conversation around it suggests.
Urinary incontinence occurs when the muscles and connective tissue that support the bladder and urethra weaken or lose their effectiveness. Stress incontinence, the most common type, involves leakage during physical activity, coughing, sneezing, or sudden movement. It’s most frequently associated with the mechanical demands of pregnancy and vaginal delivery, which place significant strain on pelvic support structures, as well as age-related weakening of the pelvic floor over time. Urgency incontinence involves a sudden, difficult-to-control urge to urinate and is typically associated with overactive bladder signalling rather than physical exertion.
Fecal incontinence is discussed even less openly but is a genuine concern for many people, particularly those with a history of childbirth-related injury, pelvic floor dysfunction, or structural changes over time.
All three involve some degree of pelvic floor dysfunction at their root. Targeted rehabilitation and strengthening approaches can produce meaningful improvement in function, comfort, and quality of life without surgery.
Childbirth, aging, and weight changes can reduce pelvic floor strength and affect bladder and bowel support.
Urgency symptoms can occur when bladder signaling creates sudden difficult-to-control urges independent of bladder fullness.
Hormonal changes and aging influence the connective tissue that supports continence and pelvic stability.

Why Patients Choose Us
We focus on non-invasive treatment options designed to improve function and quality of life before considering more aggressive interventions.
Every incontinence treatment plan is personally evaluated by Dr. Matthew Dunham, MD, FACOG to ensure recommendations fit your symptoms and goals.
Incontinence is a medical condition—not something to feel embarrassed about. We approach every conversation with respect, privacy, and clinical care.
In many cases, yes. Treatments such as Emsella and VTone focus on strengthening and rehabilitating the pelvic floor muscles involved in bladder control without surgery or medication.
Emsella is external and performed fully clothed using electromagnetic stimulation. VTone uses internal electrical stimulation directed specifically at pelvic floor muscles. Some patients benefit from combining approaches.
Many patients notice improvement within 2–4 weeks after completing treatment, with continued changes over time.
A common protocol is 6 sessions over approximately 2–3 weeks with maintenance sessions as recommended.
Pricing depends on treatment selection and the number of sessions. Financing through our partners is available. Final pricing is determined during consultation.
