A non-invasive pelvic floor strengthening system uses electrical stimulation to induce muscle contractions, mirroring the effect of traditional Kegel exercises. This technology aims to improve pelvic floor muscle strength and function by targeting specific muscle groups with precise, controlled stimulation. This type of therapy is often used to address issues like urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and sexual dysfunction.
Strengthening pelvic floor muscles is crucial for maintaining bladder and bowel control, supporting pelvic organs, and contributing to sexual health. Weakness in these muscles can lead to a range of problems, especially after childbirth or as a result of aging. Electrical stimulation offers a passive way to strengthen these muscles, providing a potential alternative or supplement to traditional exercises. This approach may be particularly beneficial for individuals who find performing Kegel exercises difficult or ineffective. Advances in technology have led to more comfortable and effective methods of applying this therapy.
