The
treatments
progress towards graduated active
exercises, in order to improve pelvic
floor muscle strength and endurance
and to regain function.
You may benefit from the Sure PRO if
you either have no active anal sphincter
contraction, or a weak or poorly
sustained contraction. Use the STRES
or TONE programmes. Intensity should
be as strong as possible without being
painful. When possible, try to contract
the muscles at the same time as the
Sure PRO.
Post
Prostatectomy
Incontinence
Electrical stimulation has been found to
help urinary incontinence in men after
radical prostatectomy in some trials.
Choose the programme depending on
the type of incontinence you are
suffering
from
and
intensity to the highest tolerable.
Chronic Pelvic Pain
Pelvic pain can be due to several
causes such as:
Vulvodynia,
Symphysis
Interstitial Cystitis.
Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic
pain syndrome: unexplained chronic
pelvic pain associated with irritative
voiding symptoms and/or pain located
in the groin, genitalia, or perineum in
the absence of pyuria and bacteriuria.
Low frequency stimulation stimulates
the release of Endorphins – your body's
natural pain relief mechanism – to
reduce pain without side effects.

Use of EMS may lead to faster progress

The method is simple and appropriate
for treatment in the clinical setting as

How EMS Works
Electrical Muscle Stimulators can play a
vital role in educating women and men
about
sensation they should feel when doing
pelvic floor exercises. Electrical Pelvic
Floor Exercisers (PFE) offer a non-
invasive
contraction of muscles via a gentle
stimulation to the pelvic floor through a
discreet probe or electrode pads when
they are placed close to the nerve that
controls the pelvic floor muscles. This
