FMS CARE Functional Magnetic Stimulation Device

A new, effective method of treating urinary incontinence using functional magnetic stimulation. This treatment can be used for both women and men for all types of incontinence, for faster rehabilitation after surgery or childbirth, and even for some sexual disorders or chronic pelvic or lower back pain. The FMS Care device has been developed for the treatment of pelvic floor and urinary incontinence, using special FMS technology – functional magnetic stimulation. The pulsed magnetic field generated by the device causes the pelvic floor muscles to contract, without the need for any electrodes. It is an effective alternative to the established methods of electrical stimulation in rehabilitation because it has many advantages. Magnetic fields are less painful, allow deep tissue penetration and do not require skin contact. FMS does not stimulate the nerves on the surface of the skin and does not cause pain, making it more pleasant than classical electrical stimulation. Magnetic fields pass through clothing, tissue and bone to reach otherwise inaccessible tissues. FMS treatment increases the strength and endurance of the pelvic floor muscles. In addition, the patient learns how to perform exercises that strengthen the muscles. This provides an effective and long-lasting treatment for uncontrolled urination and weakened pelvic floor muscles.

Indications:

• Acute musculoskeletal pain
• Degenerative rheumatism
• Neuropathies: motor, sensory, sensorimotor, mononeuropathy, polyneuropathy
• Post-traumatic conditions
• Rehabilitation after immobilisation
• Sports injuries
• Post-operative conditions
• Healing bone fractures
• Healing wounds (excluding internal wounds and scabs)
• Urinary incontinence
• Rehabilitation after radical prostatectomy
• Faecal incontinence
• Chronic prostatitis
• Erectile dysfunction

The therapy process:

• The therapy is simple and does not require any special preparation of the patient.
• During the therapy, the patient remains clothed and seated on a comfortable chair.
• During stimulation, the patient focuses on the perception of muscle contractions, making it easier to learn how to train the muscles.
• The therapy is non-invasive, painless and has no known side effects.
• Improvement is noticeable after just a few sessions.
• The treatment plan is determined on a patient-by-patient basis by a specialist doctor after an initial consultation and examination.

Strengthening the pelvic floor muscles after childbirth

The increased weight of the uterus and hormonal changes during pregnancy put a lot of strain on the pelvic floor muscles, reducing their capacity. Childbirth can cause extra strain and damage to nerves or muscles even when the birth canal seems completely intact. This eventually leads to uncontrolled urinary incontinence after childbirth. The only way to avoid this is to do exercises that strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. Such exercises should be carried out already during pregnancy and continued after birth. Nevertheless, experts estimate that even two years after giving birth, up to 28% of all women have incontinence problems. FMS allows the pelvic floor muscles to quickly regain proper tone, strength and endurance after childbirth. Urinary incontinence can be prevented or cured in 2-3 weeks!
