Why is screening so important?

The importance of health screening cannot be overstated. Screening serves as a cornerstone of preventative care, facilitating the early detection of health issues and lifestyle-related risks. Unlike diagnostic tests, which are administered in response to symptoms, health screening targets asymptomatic individuals, unveiling underlying health disorders or risk factors. By embracing screening, individuals can bolster primary prevention efforts, safeguarding their health and anticipate future ailments. Despite its many benefits, uptake of health screening among men remains low, emphasising the need for greater awareness and education on its role in preventive healthcare.

Pelvic Floor Therapy

Urinary incontinence, affecting 3 to 6 million individuals in the UK, predominantly impacts women, with more than 80% experiencing its effects. Pelvic floor muscles, crucial for bladder and organ support, can weaken due to factors like age, childbirth, or menopause, leading to conditions such as stress or urge incontinence. Stress incontinence, when urine leaks from the bladder when coughing or sneezing, results from the weakening of the pelvic floor muscles and muscles at the neck of the bladder, caused by ageing and vaginal childbirth. Urge incontinence is caused by irregular contraction of the muscles in the wall of the bladder, resulting in the urge to pee even when the bladder is empty. Weakened pelvic floor muscles exacerbate the problem.
