Pelvic Muscle Floor Strengthening

Pelvic health and wellness is not an older woman’s issue but a lifelong issue for every woman.  Strenuous childbirth, multiple births, age related menopause or menopause from disease produce unwanted physical changes that no woman can escape. In the past, women suffered in silence, tolerated the consequences, or submitted to major surgery to resolve the problems. 

Now there are other options worth considering, including our energy based treatments. These treatments include Votiva, VTone, Morpheus8, and Morpheus8V. Call 803-396-2727 to schedule your complimentary consultation today.

VTONE

A hands free, pain free mechanical method of skin tightening and toning the pelvic floor muscles by electrical muscle stimulation (EMS). Outcomes are far superior to Kegel exercise. Each treatment is beneficial, six is standard at intervals one week apart. No pain or downtime with this treatment.

VOTIVA

An FDA approved, non-invasive RF therapy used to tighten internal and external vaginal tissues with gentle thermal remodeling. Ideal for those with issues arising from strenuous birth, vaginal laxity, and urinary incontinence, there is no pain or downtime associated with this 20-30 minute procedure. One treatment usually produces immediate results but three is recommended for better and longer lasting effects.

Ask our team about pairing this treatment with Morpheus8V for added benefits.

Pelvic Muscle Floor Strengthening FAQ'S

  • Votiva is the latest FDA approved non-invasive device for women’s intimate health related to laxity of the vagina, urethra, and lower bowel area.  It uses radio frequency energy (RF) to tighten the internal and external vaginal tissue using gentle thermal tissue remodeling. The result is a tighter, stronger pelvic floor.

  • Votiva uses two complimentary technologies to address your health issues.  Votiva, with its Votiva handpiece gently and uniformly heats the treated tissue, stimulating new collagen and elastin as well as increasing blood flow and sensation to the treated areas.  It can be used both internally and externally to produce stronger, tighter tissues.

    Votiva is gentle and requires no topical anesthetic.  During treatment a small device, roughly the size of an ultrasound probe is inserted internally for about ten minutes and applied externally for 10-15 minutes to deliver safe and effective heat to the labia, perineum, urethra, and clitoral areas. There is a warm sensation but no pain and no downtime following the procedure.

    The second technology uses the Morpheus8 handpiece to remodel the external vaginal area only.  This uses a more aggresive radio frequency to contract and tighten vaginal tissue and correct labial hypertrophy. It may also be used to treat cosmetic issues like wrinkles and loose skin of the labia.  This procedure requires a topical anesthetic as there may be some discomfort.  While there is no downtime, we do recommend no tubs, pools, or sex for 2-3 days afterwards.

  • Some patients report almost immediate results, however, final results of a single treatment are usually visible after the first few weeks.  Votiva patients report improvement in lubrication, decreased pain, and vaginal discomfort.  Bladder control is improved but most need three treatments for optimum results. We recommend a series of three spaced 3-4 weeks apart.

    • Those who suffer from stress urinary incontinence.
      • If you “leak” when you exercise, or worry when you laugh, cough, or sneeze, you know this is a problem.
    • Those who experience laxity.
    • Those who experience dryness.
    • Those who experience painful intercourse.
    • Those who experience low blood flow and lack of sensitivity.
    • Those who desire a better quality of life.
