Episode 17 - Why do I have to pee all of the time?

Today let’s dive into the question, “Why do I have to pee all of the time?” It’s a pretty common question but let me start by saying this is NOT NORMAL. 

This is a topic that is normalized by the society. People think that when they are over 30 or 40, they HAVE to run to the bathroom all the time, but that’s not the case at all. There’s a ton that we could do through Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy to help with that. 

What’s truer is that there’s a lot you can do on your own to help with this situation before seeking the help of a Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist.  

So in this episode, I’ll share with you the reasons why you are peeing all the time, what the triggers and irritants are, and some tips to help you with this matter!
