"Even though I was always active in school sports, I started having problems with this [incontinence] when I went through puberty. At one point my parents and I thought I might have to have surgery.

5.0 out of 5 stars Three Kids & No More Leaks!, August 15, 2006
This review is from: Incontinence A Time to Heal with Yoga and Acupressure: A Six Week Exercise Program for People With Simple Stress Urinary Incontinence (Paperback)
After my second child I had a real problems with leakage. Every time I sneezed or moved quickly I'd leak. It was so embarrassing. I worked with Dr. Ripoll's program and within 3 weeks I saw real results. By the end of the sixth week I was completely dry all the time. Six months ago I had my third child and I started doing the exercises as soon as I could afterwards. I've had no problem with leaking.

This is a wonderful program. I'd recommend it to any post-birth mom.
