This study compares the effects of yoga and Whole Body Vibration Training on pelvic floor muscle strength, urinary symptoms severity, and quality of life in women suffering from stress urinary incontinence. Participants will engage in yoga sessions three times a week for 45 minutes or whole body vibration training for 45-55 minutes over a six-week period. Additionally, a home exercise group will perform the planned exercises daily for the same duration. The outcomes will be assessed through statistical analysis to determine the effectiveness of these interventions.
