Pilot study, case series conducted in women with a clinical diagnosis of urinary incontinence and were treated with radiofrequency technique for capacitive transfer non ablative in external urethral meatus. All participants did an hour Pad Test. The participants made five sessions of Radio Frequency (RF) with an interval of seven days between them. The application of RF was performed by physical therapist trained in the technique of radio frequency through the Tonederm® brand device with capacitive transfer method using non-ablative handle with electrode in the region of the external urethral meatro and coupling electrode placed on the participant's back. For application, the participants were in gynecological position. The session had an average duration of 20 minutes. The temperature was measured by an infrared thermometer when it reached 41graus radiofrequency was maintained for 2 minutes.
