This study is a double-blind randomized controlled trial with two groups. Participants will be evaluated by a trained blinded investigator and assigned randomly to the experimental and control groups. Both groups will undergo a pelvic floor muscle training program twice weekly for 5 consecutive weeks. Participants in the intervention group will also receive, once a week, a visceral manual therapy protocol and control group participants will receive a sham manual therapy protocol. Participants who agree to participate in the survey will sign a Free and Informed Consent Form and will be informed of the possibility of withdrawing from the survey at any stage, without penalty. The collection of the evaluation and intervention will be carried out in a salon Clinic School of Physiotherapy in the Center of Health and Sports Sciences (CEFID) of the State University of Santa Catarina (UDESC) in the city of Florianópolis - SC. All personal identification data of the participants will be preserved according to resolution of the national health council, taking into account the possibility of scientific dissemination of the results obtained. The risks of these procedures will be medium, since the participant may present muscle pain after the intervention protocol. To minimize these risks will be available, if necessary, attendance at the Clinic School of Physiotherapy. The sample will be selected in a non-probabilistic way for convenience. The participants will Female volunteers , aged from 18 years with urinary incontinence.
