Incontinence (accidents)

If your child is having daytime accidents, you’re not alone—and it’s not simply a behavior issue. Bladder and bowel incontinence are often linked to how a child’s body senses, stores, and releases urine or stool.

​

Children may have sudden urgency, frequent leaks, or difficulty making it to the bathroom in time.

​

At Cooper Core Kids, we take a whole-body approach to understanding why accidents are happening.

​

Pediatric physical therapy can help your child:

• Improve awareness of bladder and bowel signals

• Strengthen and coordinate pelvic floor and core muscles

• Manage urgency and timing to reach the bathroom

• Build routines that support continence throughout the day

 

Our approach focuses on giving your child the tools and confidence to stay dry in their daily activities.
