Kranus Mictera -
One therapy for all types of incontinence.

Female urinary incontinence refers to the involuntary loss of urine in women. It is a common condition that can range from occasional mild leakage to frequent and severe episodes. Around 25% of women worldwide are affected by urinary incontinence. There are several types of urinary incontinence in women:

• Stress Incontinence: This occurs when urine leaks during activities that increase pressure in the lower abdomen, such as coughing, sneezing, laughing, or lifting heavy objects.

• Urgency Incontinence: Also known as overactive bladder, this form involves a sudden and intense urge to urinate, followed by involuntary urine loss.

• Mixed Incontinence: This is a combination of stress and urgency incontinence symptoms.  

Several factors can contribute to the development of urinary incontinence in women, including childbirth, menopause, pelvic floor weakness, recurrent urinary tract infections, certain medications, and neurological disorders.

Treatment options for female urinary incontinence include pelvic floor exercises (Kegel exercises), behavioral therapies, medications, medical devices, and surgical interventions. The appropriate treatment depends on the type and severity of the incontinence, as well as the overall health and preferences of the affected individual.

Yes, pelvic floor muscle training is a key component of the therapy program and should ideally be done before childbirth. Studies show that pelvic floor exercises before and during pregnancy can significantly reduce the risk of urinary incontinence (bladder weakness) later in pregnancy and after childbirth. Pelvic floor exercises are especially effective when done under guidance. The 12-week Kranus Mictera therapy program helps you effectively integrate these important exercises into your daily routine.

Yes, pelvic floor muscle training is a central part of the therapy program and is crucial for women after childbirth. Studies show that regular pelvic floor exercises can effectively reduce urinary incontinence (bladder weakness) after delivery and promote the recovery of pelvic floor muscles. The effectiveness of the program is particularly high when done specifically and under guidance. The 12-week Kranus Mictera therapy program helps you integrate these important exercises step by step into your daily routine, allowing you to benefit from them in the long term.

• Stress incontinence: This occurs when activities that increase abdominal pressure, such as coughing, sneezing, laughing, or lifting heavy objects, cause urine leakage.

• Urge incontinence: Also known as overactive bladder, this form is characterized by a sudden and strong urge to urinate, followed by involuntary urine leakage.

• Mixed incontinence: This is a combination of stress and urge incontinence symptoms.

Yes, the Kranus Mictera therapy program is a valuable complement to pelvic floor exercises. A clinical study has shown that even women who have already completed pelvic floor training or postnatal courses in the last six months can benefit from this program.

Kranus Mictera is based on a multimodal concept. In addition to targeted pelvic floor exercises, it includes bladder training, educational content, and mental exercises. This combination makes the program particularly effective and allows for seamless integration into daily life.

The effectiveness of Kranus Mictera demonstrates that it can be used not only as an independent therapy but also in addition to existing exercises. This offers women the opportunity to work comprehensively and sustainably on their health and well-being.

Yes, the Kranus Mictera therapy program is an ideal complement to a postnatal recovery course. A clinical study has shown that even women who have already completed postnatal recovery courses or pelvic floor training in the past six months can benefit from this multimodal therapeutic approach.

The Kranus Mictera program is based on various therapeutic pillars, including bladder training/behavioral therapy, educational content, mental training, and pelvic floor exercises. This holistic approach not only promotes physical recovery but also supports you mentally and emotionally while you focus on your postnatal recovery.

After completing the digital Kranus Mictera therapy program, you can expect significant improvements. In a clinical study, one-quarter of participants were completely free from incontinence after 12 weeks, and an average reduction of 60.95% in incontinence episodes was achieved.

Health-related quality of life also improved significantly, particularly in terms of avoidance and restricting behaviors in daily life. These positive results occurred regardless of prior therapies, comorbidities, or lifestyle factors. Additionally, patients who used the app more frequently showed a stronger therapeutic effect.

Even women who had already completed postnatal recovery courses or pelvic floor therapies benefited significantly from Kranus Mictera. The program not only serves as a valuable complement to previous therapeutic approaches but also contributes sustainably to improving your quality of life.

The clinical study evaluated the effectiveness of the Kranus Mictera therapy program after 12 weeks and observed significant success. However, initial positive effects can often be noticed earlier. This depends on several factors such as the frequency of use, individual health conditions, and the type of incontinence.

To achieve the best possible results, it is important to complete the program consistently. Only by doing so can you fully benefit from the therapy’s potential and experience lasting improvements.

Yes, an ongoing medical treatment can be continued in parallel with Kranus Mictera. However, there is a high likelihood that after completing our therapy, the need for medication will be significantly reduced or it may no longer be necessary at all.

The causes of urinary incontinence vary depending on the specific type. In general, chronic strain or pelvic floor weakness typically leads to stress incontinence, while chronic bladder irritation such as from recurring urinary tract infections can lead to urge incontinence.

Stress Incontinence:

• Pregnancy and childbirth: Can weaken the pelvic floor muscles.

• Menopause: A decline in estrogen levels may lead to pelvic floor muscle weakening.

• Surgical interventions: Operations in the pelvic area can impair pelvic floor function.

• Overweight or chronic coughing: Constant pressure on the pelvic floor.

• Aging: Weakening and reduced elasticity of the muscles and ligaments that support the bladder.

Urge Incontinence:

• Neurological conditions: Such as Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, stroke, or spinal cord injuries.

• Repeated urinary tract infections: Cause chronic irritation of the bladder nerves and lining.

• Medications: Especially diuretics or certain psychiatric medications that increase urine production.

• Lifestyle factors: Use of alcohol, caffeine, and nicotine.

Mixed Incontinence:

• Caused by a combination of both stress and urge incontinence factors.
