Summary

Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is the first line therapy recommended by NICE for the treatment of SUI. Due to poor motivation and compliance only 15-20% of women comply with the regimen. Whole body vibration (WBV) exercise has been developed as a new modality in the field of physiotherapy. The Galileo machine is a unique device for applying whole-body vibration. The investigators are currently using this therapy as an alternative to traditional pelvic floor muscle therapy. The investigators aim to audit the investigators treatment of whole body vibration.
