Urinary pathologies affect a large percentage of the population (all genders). And they have a significant impact on quality of life, according to multiple research studies. But, urinary pathology can be hard to talk about. It can feel shameful, embarrassing, guilt provoking and depressing. In addition, with routine medical visits averaging a total of 15 minutes, we can feel rushed and like we have to prioritize our concerns. And, we’re not feeling seen or heard as a client or human being.

While pelvic health concerns are often associated with women, men can also experience a variety of pelvic health dysfunctions. These issues may involve the pelvic floor muscles, reproductive organs, and urinary or gastrointestinal systems. As with women, quality of life for men can be seriously impacted. For some men, pelvic health dysfunction may be a highly emotional topic and one that is very challenging to talk about. Addressing the issues can be life changing.
