Did you know that around 24% to 45% of women struggle with urinary incontinence? For something that seems to be a common issue, it is not commonly discussed. But at Vive Aesthetics & Wellness, we’re here to start that discussion so you can begin finding the solution.
In this blog, we’ll talk about how the pelvic floor influences urinary incontinence, and how you can resolve your symptoms with pelvic floor therapy in Marlton, NJ.
What is the pelvic floor?
The pelvic floor is a collection of muscles that connect from the tailbone to the front of the pubic bone. These muscles work to maintain your core strength, protect your spine, and support pelvic organ function, such as the bladder and bowels.
However, like any muscle, the pelvic floor can lose strength over time. Whether you experience trauma in your pelvic floor, such as from giving birth, or it naturally weakens as you age, your pelvic floor’s ability to function as it should can diminish. This means certain issues can appear, like sexual dysfunction, fecal incontinence, and urinary incontinence.
How to repair your pelvic floor?
Thankfully, our team offers VTone and FormaV, two minimally invasive services that help tighten and strengthen your pelvic floor. VTone is an exceptional pelvic floor treatment that uses electrical muscle stimulation to re-educate the muscles within your pelvic floor, and FormaV radiofrequency to tighten and repair the tissue within your vaginal canal and pelvic floor.
EMS
EMS stimulates thousands of contractions within your pelvic floor. These contractions are not intense or painful, like birth contractions would be. Instead, EMS uses small electrical currents to cause the muscles to flex and relax rapidly, providing an intense workout. This builds up muscle mass within your pelvic floor muscles, strengthening them.
Radiofrequency
Radiofrequency energy gently warms the muscle and tissue, activating your body’s natural healing response. This stimulation boosts collagen and elastin production – two essential proteins that support firmness, flexibility, and resilience. The result? A stronger, more supported pelvic floor and improved function in your daily life.
