Dale Ann Dorsey:
I am Dale Ann Dorsey. I am a women’s health nurse practitioner, and I have my own practice that’s called Arcadia Well Women. We treat women in all ages and trying to promote just healthy living and healthy lifestyles.

The Athena PMT is a device that can help strengthen the pelvic floor for women that are experiencing urinary incontinence.

One of the main causes of urinary incontinence is a weakened pelvic floor and it’s really important to keep that strong.

The pelvic floor is a collection of a lot of different muscles and they form kind of a little girdle that support all of the pelvic muscles and help to release and control the flow of urine through the urethra.
