Voiding Diary

Downloadable Apps for Pelvic Floor Exercises & Bladder Retraining
Although in the ideal world everyone would have access to a pelvic floor physiotherapist, often this is not possible. Fortunately, there are studies demonstrating that many patients will experience measurable improvement by using apps designed to guide self-motivated users. Recommendations:
