Bladder & Bowel

Living With, the creator of the Squeezy app, provides a suite of digital health products that can help clinical teams across all bladder, bowel and pelvic health departments.

Bladder patient
doctor and patient
14 million people in the UK are living with bladder problems. An additional 6.5 million adults in the UK suffer with some form of bowel problem. Around 34% of women are living with urinary incontinence and only 1 in 5 of those affected seek help. Urinary incontinence commonly affects people of all ages.

Many patients find it difficult to remember to do their exercises and attend appointments. As a result,

  • it often takes longer to see desired improvements in outcomes
  • there is an increase in DNAs
  • the treatment cycle is unnecessarily lengthened.
