4. Mind-Body Therapy

Mind-body therapy is an essential part of treatment for OAB. You have an automatic messaging system between your mind and every cell of your body, which includes the cells of your bladder. You must become aware of the automatic responses that occur when messages are exchanged between your body and mind.

By becoming aware, you will gradually be able to intercept the messages and regain control over involuntary urges to void. You can use your mind to desensitize yourself to the messages. You will also learn techniques for distracting yourself when the need to void arises.
