Functional Magnetic Stimulation
Recently, a new method of physical therapy has become available in Baltic – Functional Magnetic Stimulation. It provides a good effect for many health issues, including the quite common urine incontinence cases.
It is known that magnetic field therapy has a positive effect on many different body organ systems. The core of the method is a strong magnetic field that is able to initiate muscle contractions – more than two hundred times stronger than the classic magnetic field therapy.
One of the biggest advantages of this therapy is the ability to achieve muscle contractions without a direct contact with the skin. It is non-invasive, painless and comfortable.
FMS provides the ability to stimulate the deep muscle structures which electrotherapy cannot reach.
If the counter indications are followed there are no known negative side effects.
FMS applicator for joint system, muscle system and spinal problem treatments – the therapist can use it manually or the applicator can be fixed to the patient’s body. Manual use allows for feeling the motoric response of the body to guarantee an effective stimulation.
FMS chair is a great alternative or addition to all incontinence treatment methods available until now.
This new and unique physical therapy device is meant for women and men for treating all types of urine incontinence, fecal incontinence, faster rehabilitation after childbirth and pelvic floor surgeries, as well as for strengthening the inner musculature of the pelvic floor, strengthening the vaginal musculature, treating sexual dysfunctions and chronic lower back pain.
The patient is fully clothed and sits in a comfortable chair which has a magnetic applicator built into the seat. It is possible to have a chair with a second magnetic applicator built into the backrest for lower back pain reduction.
