Study Details

The goal of this trial is to learn about the feasibility and benefits of delivering a pelvic floor muscle training program to people with motor-incomplete spinal cord injury. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To evaluate the feasibility of delivering a pelvic floor muscle training program to people with spinal cord injury. The investigators will examine recruitment rate, compliance and adherence to the intervention and other study protocols, adverse events, and participant perspectives of the study protocols. 2. To explore the potential effectiveness of pelvic floor muscle training on pelvic floor, bladder, bowel, and sexual function. Participants will be asked to complete a pelvic floor muscle training program for 3 months. At the beginning, middle, and end of the program, researchers will conduct a series of tests to determine the feasibility and potential effectiveness of this program.
