Urostym
Occasionally urinary urgency and overactive bladder do not improve with traditional treatments such as medications or Kegels exercises. For those rare patients we perform pelvic floor rehabilitation using the Urostym platform. This treatment involves sending electrical currents through the levator ani muscles which support the bladder and other pelvic organs. The muscle will contract and gradually strengthen after multiple treatments. Urostym therapy is divided into 7 weekly sessions each lasting 15-20 minutes. For severe cases of female urinary incontinence, the improvement in quality of life is well worth the multiple visits.
