MODERN REHABILITATION
FOR THE BUSIEST OF US
30% of women become incontinent after childbirth. Let that sink in. Embarrassment, busy providers, and a national shortage of pelvic health specialists mean that most women never receive care for urinary incontinence. It's time we change that.
IT WORKS
Users that complete 6 weeks of the program experience clinically significant incontinence reduction rates. (see Sources)
INTEGRATED IN REAL LIFE
Designed by PTs and mothers, it uses real-life activities to reconnect your pelvic floor.
No yoga mat needed.
COVERED BY INSURANCE
Incontinence is a health disorder, and you have insurance for that. Let's use it.

About the Team
Laura Vidal Borrell, the co-founder of HappySneeze, started having pee leaks right after she gave birth to her first son. Too embarrassed to talk about it, she waited three years to tell her doctor, who referred her to Pelvic Physical Therapy. That involved driving 20 miles in traffic while working full-time and having a nursing baby and a toddler at home. So she stopped attending after the second session. Eventually, incontinence forced her to work from home, stop carrying her kids, and always wear black pants. It sucked. Working for a global tech company, she realized we have the technology and resources to treat women early and at scale. So she, and her husband and co-founder, Roger, decided to put their tech and media experience to good use, quit their jobs, and founded HappySneeze to radically increase the early detection and treatment of Pelvic Floor Disorders.
