Struggling with urgency, frequency, or an overactive bladder (OAB)?
You’re not alone and new research points to an unexpected link: magnesium.

A large U.S. study of nearly 29,000 adults found that people with lower magnesium levels were significantly more likely to experience OAB symptoms. In fact, for every drop in magnesium status, the odds of OAB rose by 9%.

The effect was strongest in women, adults aged 40–60, non-smokers, and those with a higher BMI and the scientists also looked at factors that decrease magnesium levels (like proton pump inhibitor use, alcohol use and diuretic use).

Why? Magnesium plays a key role in nerve and muscle function, including the muscles of your bladder. Without enough, things don’t “fire” as smoothly as they should.

While more research is needed, this is another reminder of how vital nutrition is for your whole-body health, right down to bladder control.

What is EMDR & How Can It Help?

If you’ve ever felt stuck in painful memories, even when you know you’re safe now, you’re not alone. Trauma, stress, or difficult experiences can leave an imprint on the brain and body that talking alone doesn’t always resolve.

Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing (EMDR) is a gentle, structured therapy designed to help your brain process and release distressing memories. Using guided eye movements (or other forms of bilateral stimulation), EMDR helps “unstick” painful experiences so they can be stored in the past, instead of continuing to trigger anxiety, stress, or emotional pain in the present.

How EMDR can help:
• Reduce the emotional intensity of traumatic or stressful memories
• Ease symptoms of anxiety, panic, and depression
• Improve sleep and calm the nervous system
• Support healing from chronic stress, grief, or trauma
• Empower you to respond to life with more balance and resilience

EMDR is evidence-based and has helped countless people reclaim peace of mind and emotional wellbeing.
