The systems and methods described herein combine both moisture and electromyograph (EMG) sensors in a single wearable garment, along with a suitable output device such as a 'smart' mobile device or computer, to provide users with new and useful feedback that can significantly improve incontinence symptoms. The EMG provides feedback to the user specifically regarding the quality of pelvic floor muscle contractions, while the moisture sensor provides feedback about the 'end result' of the subjects' incontinence. Each measurement device alone can also provide useful information and feedback to different population groups. Combining these two measurements provides unprecedented data to enhance the subjects' therapy in managing urinary incontinence.
