Erectile Dysfunction Treatment Gold Coast

Shockwave therapy has been proven to successfully treat ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION !

Shockwave therapy (SWT) is commonly used to treat tendinopathies, arthritis pain, lower back pain and more with huge success rates.

But now, our sexual health physio is now using it to treat men with erectile dysfunction.

– It is non-invasive

you don’t require a referral
It doesn’t involve drugs and
There is no risk of infection or complication a there is with surgery

How does this work?

The Shockwave device works by using acoustic shockwaves at a low frequency. This helps to initiate a healing response in the body, continuing even when treatment has ceased.

This healing response results in:

Enhanced growth factors
Increased cell proliferation in the tissue
New blood vessel formation
Increased blood flow and delivery of nutrients to the penile shaft.

And this leads to, better, longer and stronger erections! The shockwaves are delivered by a non-invasive, hydraulic hand held device transmitted to focussed points along the base and shaft of the penis.
Treatment involves up to 10,000 pulses in one session and generally lasts from 20-30minutues. Number of treatments is decided upon in the initial consultation.

Who benefits from Erectile Dysfunction Treatment?

ED should be initially investigated by a doctor to discover the root cause. Vascular ED responds well to shockwave therapy. Research shows that shockwave has the best results for mild to moderate ED.
This usually means:

Men who don’t need oral medication like viagra or Cialis
Men who respond well to them
OR men who have recently stopped responding to these oral medications

It is important to note however that any man can try shockwave for ED!

It is incredibly safe, non-invasive and cheaper than many other alternatives. Ace health centre also offers other physiotherapy options for men with ED, pre and post prostatectomy/ other surgical approaches, pelvic pain as well as bowel and bladder issues e.g. incontinence. Treatments can include:

– Pelvic floor muscle training which has a significant role in erectile function and incontinence.

Advice and education regarding modifiable lifestyle risk factors
Exercise of the penis to retain elasticity including manual stretching and advice on penile pumps
Individualised exercise programs to encourage muscle blood flow, improve quality of life and immune system support to better attack cancer cells.
Advice and education on further support that may be required for you.
