Press Release: StopYourDrip.com Announces Launch

StopYourDrip.com Announces the Launch of a New Exercise Program to Improve Male Urinary Incontinence After Prostate Cancer Surgery

The Stop Your Drip exercise program is the alternative to male incontinence diapers, clamps, devices, clips and Kegel exercises.

Pasadena, CA / May 12, 2010 – Dr. Daniel Kirages, one of the nation’s leading physical therapy experts in male continence recovery, announced today the launch of StopYourDrip.com, a website devoted to helping thousands of men with male urinary incontinence (involuntary urine loss). The main product featured on the site is a well-tested and very effective exercise program that can help men with their recovery of continence after a prostate gland removal surgery (prostatectomy).

As one of the top health concerns for men considering or recovering from a prostatectomy, bladder control issues can now be addressed in new and effective ways. The Stop Your Drip! Exercise Program for Male Bladder Control is a 16-week pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation program, which includes:

* Pelvic Floor Muscle Awareness Training
* Pre-Surgery Program
* Post-Surgery Program – 5 progressive phases
* Maintenance Program

Included is a comprehensive manual, a video DVD program, a 65cm exercise ball, a ball pump and an exercise band. By explaining the condition, introducing the various exercise programs and demonstrating how the exercises are performed correctly, these men can now take an active role in improving a health concern that before may have seemed impossible to correct.

“As the number of prostate gland removal surgeries increases, so does the number of those suffering from male urinary incontinence. Most men wear diapers and just wait for several months until their bladder control returns, but current medical research tells us that an exercise program targeting the pelvic floor muscle below the bladder can help these men regain their control earlier,” said Kirages.

Rehabilitation following prostate gland or bladder surgery is a large part of the total process. Exercising the pelvic floor muscle helps restore bladder control as soon as possible. Diapers, clamps, devices, clips and basic Kegel exercises are not enough and many times are simply a band-aid for the problem.

“This Stop Your Drip! Exercise Program has taken some of the most beneficial ideas from medical research and compiled them into one fully loaded and effective exercise program. Not all men receive the advice or care they need to help them restore their bladder control after a prostatectomy. Stop Your Drip! is the much needed solution to fill this void in the rehabilitation community.”

Dr. Kirages has been practicing as a physical therapist for several years. As a clinician, educator, researcher, and lecturer, he has worked with hundreds of men who suffer from urinary incontinence due to surgical procedures of the prostate gland or bladder. This has allowed him to understand what is necessary to improve their quality of life.
