Pelvic floor muscle training is widely prescribed to able-bodied people, yet it is rarely prescribed to people with Spinal Cord Injuries, despite the potential benefits of this treatment. Researchers from the University of British Columbia are conducting a study in order to hear from people with SCI about their knowledge, attitudes, and practice regarding pelvic floor muscle therapies. They’re asking you to complete THIS SURVEY which shouldn’t take longer than 10-20 minutes to complete and qualify to be entered into a drawing for a chance to win one of 10 $50 gift cards. Even if you have never heard of the pelvic floor, everyone who is eligible is welcome to participate. You just need to be over the age of 18 and have a spinal cord injury.

The results from this study will help clinical researchers understand current knowledge, attitude, and practice of pelvic floor muscle training among people living with SCI. This information can be used to build and improve future pelvic floor muscle therapy programs for the SCI population and guide other health care professionals to making informed decisions when prescribing pelvic floor muscle training interventions.
