Urinary leakage and pelvic floor treatment
Biron offers a non-invasive and painless treatment to strengthen the pelvic floor and reduce urinary leakage.
This service is provided in-person by a qualified nursing professional, in a confidential and caring environment.
Who is the treatment for urinary leakage intended for?
The urinary leakage treatment service is designed for anyone looking to regain confidence and comfort at different stages of life, including:

What happens during a treatment?
Your journey begins with a consultation with our qualified nursing staff. During this appointment, we will discuss your symptoms and medical history.
Together, we will develop a personalized treatment plan that will be explained to you, so that you know what to expect at every stage.
The treatment includes six sessions, scheduled based on the severity of the symptoms. During each session, your pelvic muscles will gradually strengthen for long-lasting and optimal results.
Once all six sessions are completed, three additional sessions will be offered at no cost to help support and maintain treatment results.
