Don’t suffer in silence!
Urge, Stress and Mixed Incontinence affects over 4.8 Million Aussies, that is nearly one-quarter of our population!
While there are variations and levels of Incontinence, many are in fact reversible. Incontinence be it Bladder or Bowel is still largely a ‘suffer in silence’ condition due to social stigma. We at Elle TENS Australia want to help change that.

I’m not sure what type of Incontinence I have! What settings do I use?
Firstly it is always recommended to have a chat to your health care professional if you are suffering from Incontinence but here is a quick rundown on what the different types are:
Urge incontinence
The SensaTONE urge incontinence program is used when you experience a sudden urge to urinate and cannot make it to the bathroom in time. It is often caused by weak pelvic floor muscles or an overactive bladder. You should notice a difference within 2 weeks of using this program 1-2 times a day.
Stress incontinence
Our stress incontinence program can be used when the pelvic floor muscles are weakened, causing urine to leak out during activities that put pressure on the bladder, such as coughing, sneezing, exercising, jumping on the trampoline with our kids……..
As the muscles become stronger, they are better able to support your bladder and urethra, reducing the risk of urine leakage. Stress Incontinence improves slowly with building muscle fibre and nerve sensitivity so you will need to be patient and stick with it.
You should notice a difference within 8 weeks of using this program 1 time a day or every other day depending on the severity.
Mixed incontinence
Mixed incontinence is a combination of stress incontinence and urge incontinence and we have a program just for this!
As it is a combination of Urge and Stress incontinence issues, it can take slightly longer, again please be patient.
You should notice a difference within 3 weeks of using this program 1 time a day.
After care program
Our after care program is a maintenance mode to be used after you have been using the SensaTONE on a regular basis and noticed improvement on your condition.
This program can be used for up to 15-30 minutes per day at your discretion.
