title: Stress incontinence: treatment using pelvic floor re-education.
abstract: Stress incontinence is the most common cause of urinary incontinence. A pelvic floor assessment is an essential prerequisite to all pelvic floor exercise programmes. Many patients with stress incontinence can be cured using a programme of exercises. The use of weighed pelvic floor cones with an exercise programme increases compliance and enables patients to perform resisted exercises in their own homes.
