This is a multicenter randomized controlled trial using a parallel group design that involves women with a confirmed diagnosis of avulsion and suffering from urinary incontinence. Participants will be randomized into either physiotherapy or a waiting-list control group. Both groups will be evaluated at baseline, post-treatment (3 months post-randomization) and 9 months after randomization. Women in the control group will receive full-body relaxation massage which has shown no effect on continence but was selected to control for effects of attention received by the therapist. After the 9-month assessment, women assigned to the control group will receive the same physiotherapy treatment and undergo a last assessment.
