It’s time to take back control.
Many men suffer in silence from pelvic floor dysfunction, experiencing symptoms like urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction, and premature ejaculation.
You’re far from alone if you’ve experienced any of these symptoms. Erectile dysfunction affects 1 in 5 men in the UK, with more than 50% of men over 40 affected. Approximately 1 in 3 men over 65 will experience urinary incontinence issues at some point.
You don’t need us to tell you that these issues can significantly impact quality of life, leading to embarrassment, anxiety, and relationship problems.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
At Creative Touch, we believe that beauty starts from within. You can’t be your best self when coping with anxiety and embarrassment.
The Importance of Pelvic Floor Health for Men
The pelvic floor, a group of muscles that support the pelvic organs, plays a vital role in men’s health. However, this area often remains overlooked or misunderstood with the majority of medical focus being on women’s pelvic floor health.
Pelvic floor dysfunction can lead to a range of issues, including:
Urinary incontinence: Involuntary leakage of urine.
Erectile dysfunction: Difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection.
Premature ejaculation: Ejaculating too soon during sexual activity.
Pain during intercourse: Discomfort or pain experienced during sexual activity.
Pelvic organ prolapse and hernia: When one or more pelvic organs sag or bulge downward.
These conditions can significantly impact a man’s quality of life and sense of self, leading variously to pain, embarrassment, anxiety, and relationship problems.
The Role of Pelvic Floor Muscles
The pelvic floor muscles are essential for:
Supporting the pelvic organs: Preventing them from sagging or prolapsing.
Controlling urination: Preventing involuntary leakage.
Erectile function: Contributing to the ability to achieve and maintain an erection.
Sexual sensation: Enhancing pleasure and satisfaction during sexual activity.
Factors Affecting Pelvic Floor Health
Several factors can contribute to pelvic floor dysfunction in men, including:
Ageing: As men age, their pelvic floor muscles naturally weaken.
Prostate surgery: Surgery to treat prostate cancer or benign prostatic hyperplasia can damage the pelvic floor muscles.
Chronic conditions: Conditions such as diabetes, multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson’s disease can affect pelvic floor function.
Lifestyle factors: Obesity, smoking, and heavy lifting can strain the pelvic floor muscles.
Addressing pelvic floor dysfunction
Traditionally, addressing pelvic floor dysfunction in men has been a challenge, often requiring invasive procedures or medications. However, EmChair therapy offers a groundbreaking, non-invasive solution that uses electromagnetic muscle stimulation (EMS) technology.
This innovative approach to pelvic floor physical therapy strengthens the pelvic floor muscles, significantly improving various aspects of men’s health affected by weak pelvic floor muscles.
Clinical Evidence for EmChair Therapy
Clinical studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of electromagnetic therapy in tackling a range of issues men face:
Improved Bladder and Bowel Control
Strengthening the pelvic floor muscles not only reduces involuntary urine leakage but also helps manage faecal incontinence. This is particularly beneficial for men who experience bowel control issues, such as accidental leakage or a sense of urgency.
Studies have shown that EMS therapy can improve both bladder [1] and bowel [2] function, providing comprehensive relief for men suffering from pelvic floor dysfunction.
Enhanced Sexual Function
EmChair therapy plays a crucial role in improving men’s sexual health by strengthening the pelvic floor muscles responsible for erectile function. The induced contractions enhance blood flow to the penis, a vital factor for achieving and maintaining erections. Many men report experiencing stronger and longer-lasting erections after treatment, leading to improved sexual performance and satisfaction. [3]
Control Over Ejaculation
For men struggling with premature ejaculation, EmChair therapy offers substantial benefits. By enhancing neuromuscular coordination of the pelvic floor muscles, this therapy empowers men to gain greater control over their ejaculation timing. Improved muscle strength translates to longer-lasting sexual encounters and increased self-esteem. [4] [5]
The Advantages of EmChair Therapy
Beyond its effectiveness, several factors make EmChair therapy an attractive option:
Non-invasive and Comfortable
Unlike traditional surgical interventions, EmChair therapy is a pain-free experience. Patients remain fully clothed during the treatment, typically experiencing only a mild tingling sensation. Sessions are short (around 30 minutes) and easily integrated into a busy schedule without downtime.
Increased Blood Flow
Electromagnetic stimulation strengthens the pelvic floor muscles and promotes better blood circulation in the pelvic region. This enhanced blood flow plays a vital role in erectile function and overall sexual health, making it a valuable aspect of treatment.
Comprehensive Pelvic Health Improvement
Regular EmChair therapy sessions improve pelvic floor overall muscle tone and function. This addresses multiple aspects of men’s health simultaneously, leading to benefits in muscle strength, bladder control, and sexual performance.
Empowering Men to Take Control of Their Health
EmChair Therapy is a significant advancement in addressing pelvic floor dysfunction in men. By using evidence-based technology, this treatment offers a safe and effective solution for improving bladder control, sexual function, and overall pelvic health.
For men seeking a non-invasive and comfortable approach to addressing these often-taboo issues, EmChair therapy offers the potential to improve their quality of life significantly.
Neither is EmChair Therapy only a solution for current symptoms; it’s an investment in long-term health. Just as building muscle mass throughout your body can prevent future injuries and improve overall well-being, strengthening your pelvic floor muscles before symptoms occur can help you avoid future issues.
