Extracorporeal pelvic floor muscle stimulation is used for the treatment, rehabilitation of the urogenital area, solving several common problems. The method allows you to achieve intimate rejuvenation, strengthening the muscles that support the organs of the small pelvis, perineum. As a result of exposure, the sensitivity of the genital organs, neuromuscular control of the bladder increases, which significantly improves the quality lives of women and men, improves overall health.
The essence of the method
The treatment is based on a patented technology of non-invasive exposure to a magnetic field of certain power and focus. The device myostimulator for the muscles of the pelvic floor projects high-intensity radiation on the perineum, pelvis, organs of the lower abdomen, stimulating the muscles. This leads to a very strong impulse reduction.
As a result of exposure to discrete impulses, muscle fibers are trained, which helps to increase their tone and elasticity. The muscular frame of the pelvis better supports the internal structures, eliminates organ prolapse.
Magnetic field stimulation also performs neuromodulation of the region of the lower part of the spinal cord, from where the nerve roots that innervate the genitourinary organs exit. Thus, not only the strengthening of the supporting frame is achieved, but also the activation of nerve pathways that help the brain control the process of urination, increasing sensitivity during orgasm.
Pelvic floor magnetic stimulation device
Different manufacturers of medical equipment make a physiotherapeutic myostimulator for intimate muscles in the form of a chair, in the base of which an electromagnetic inductor is mounted. The device has a power supply, a transformer, a tablet to control the operation of the device.
The maximum value of the induction of magnetic pulses at the seat surface reaches 0.5 T. The frequency can be set in values from 1 to 50 Hz with a resolution of 1 Hz. It is also possible to set the time of a therapeutic session from 1 minute to 1 hour.
Manipulation is completely painless, since the strength of discrete impulses is sufficient to stimulate nerve muscle fibers, which causes them to alternately contract and relax, but not enough to irritate pain receptors in tissues.
Features of the procedure
Electromagnetic stimulation is carried out using a special chair. This is a safe method that does not require any special training. This procedure has the following features:
- There are no electrodes, probes, gels or pastes.
- No need to undress.
- Exposure to electromagnetic rays - no physical interference.
- Ultimate patient comfort
Very weak muscles get tired quickly. If such a muscle works for a certain time, it will need twice the time spent working to recover. For example, if stimulation lasts 5 seconds, you need 10 seconds for the muscle to relax before the next phase. This is a very important point, which must be taken into account when operating the device.
Electromagnetic pelvic floor muscle stimulation devices have a set of programs for patients with various problems and various muscle parameters. Ideally, stimulation time should increase slowly over several weeks. It is on this principle that prevention and therapy are based - the load (stimulation) time gradually increases from session to session.
Stimulation is part of the process of prevention, treatment or rehabilitation. Specialized chairs are always used under the supervision of a specialized specialist, although this device is almost completely safe.
Indications for the procedure
The therapy is indicated for women and men who are concerned about the failure of the muscles of the genitourinary region. This can be associated with such unpleasant symptoms as impaired control of urination, defecation, ptosis of the urethra, rectum, sexual dysfunction, chronic pelvic pain.
Muscular dysfunction often occurs under the influence of age factors, less often due to individual physiological characteristics.
82% of patients with impaired function of the muscular structures of the pelvis are women over 65 years of age, sometimes women of childbearing age after multiple births, abortions, with excess or deficiency of body weight, physical inactivity.
In men, dysfunction of the muscular apparatus occurs due to excessive loads during hard physical work, some sports. Provoking factors influencing the development of pathology are smoking, physical inactivity, obesity, constipation.
Indications for women for pelvic floor muscle therapy with a myostimulator:
- Incontinence of feces, urine; enuresis, encopresis.
- Chronic pain syndrome.
- Prolapse, prolapse of the uterus. Ptosis of the walls of the vagina, ureters, bladder, kidneys, ampulla of the rectum.
- Rectal sphincter incompetence
- Inflammatory processes of the urinary organs.
- Poor lymphatic drainage of this area, impaired tissue trophism.
- Postpartum, age-related changes with omission, lethargy of structures.
- Adhesive disease.
Physiotherapy treatment is also indicated for sexual dysfunctions, lack of orgasm, lack of sensation during intimacy.
Indications for training the pelvic floor muscles of men:
- Incontinence, feces, enuresis, encopresis.
- Chronic inflammation of the prostate.
- Erectile dysfunction.
- Early ejaculation during intercourse.
- Chronic pain syndrome.
- Small stones in the lower part of the ureter.
The pelvic muscles maintain the internal structures in an anatomically correct position, help manage the processes of urination, defecation, maintain the ability of men and women to have a healthy sex life.
A stabilized pelvis affects the state of posture, spine, position of internal organs, pressure in the abdominal cavity. It is based on reflex mechanisms, which, when the muscle structures are weakened, also lose their strength. Training is best done with a pelvic floor muscle stimulator.
