Objective: To observe the effects of physiotherapy in women with urinary incontinence. Methods: Literature review in which the participants were women aged 60 years or older with urinary incontinence, who presented outcomes related to quality of life. Articles with women in the postoperative period and who do not present an outcome related to quality of life were excluded. A table was created with the identification of the studies after the selection of the articles, the sample data, the instruments used in the evaluation, the intervention and the results. Results: The composition of the samples of the studies ranged from 21 to 28 participants, the average intervention time was 30 to 45 minutes, 1 to 2 times a week and all lasted 12 weeks. They underwent kinesiotherapeutic treatment (composed of awareness / education about MAP and UI, as well as MAP training) and used questionnaires to assess QV. It was possible to observe in both, a decrease in the questionnaire scores in comparison to the pre and post-treatment, with an improvement in QV in all domains of the questionnaire. Thus, like the Leong & Mok Intervention Group which also performed kinesiotherapeutic treatment, but used the IIQ-7 questionnaire, it obtained significant improvement when compared to the pre-treatment. Conclusion: The analyzed studies present a wide variety in relation to the type of intervention this review allows us to conclude that QV is directly linked with UI and that conservative treatment through physical therapy treatment for this condition contributed to the reduction of the frequency of urinary losses.
