Pelvic Floor Problems

Pelvic floor dysfunction is common in both women and men and can lead to incontinence in the bladder or bowel as well as to sexual dissatisfaction and in men to erectile problems. In fact the same pelvic muscles are responsible for both sexual function and bladder/bowel control. This is why both women and men need to train their pelvic floor muscles as prevention or treatment.

How does it work

Deep stimulation of muscular structures achieves pelvic floor muscle tone, strength, and endurance.

We have a gynecologist, urologist, gastroenterologist - plus specially trained nurses, physical therapist, nutritionist, and other professionals - working side by side to make sure you get complete health care for any pelvic disorder.

Functional Magnetic Stimulation (FMS) works by deep penetration of tissues.It is more effective than electrostimulation, suitable for patients where electrotherapy cannot be used.It is painless, non-invasive therapy and doesn't require skin contact.It does not stimulate pain nerves on the skin surface and is therefore more pleasant than classic electrical stimulation.
