Abstract

Abstract Background: No doubt that stress urinary incontinence is associated with social undeniable impacts, embarrassment, impaired emotional and psychological well-being, also limited self-perception. Almost SUI have not yet been fully understood. Aim of Study: To evaluate the effect of kinesiotaping on activation of abdomino-pelvic cavity in female patients with stress urinary incontinence. However, pelvic floor muscula-tures are considered the main active support for the pelvic floor. In addition, other synergistic muscles, such as the diaphragm and transversus abdominis muscles also actively support pelvic floor. Numerous studies reported that mild-to-moderate phys-ical activity decreases the odds and risks of urinary inconti-nence, because that might induce positive effects on SUI. As well, Kinesio Taping is rehabilitative technique used to facili-tate the body's natural healing process while providing support and stability. Conclusion: Adding kinesiotaping over abdominal cavity stimulates reflexive mechanism of action, it could be addressed as an effective therapeutic modality for management of stress urinary incontinence.
