Urinary stress incontinence or the involuntary loss of urine with laughing sneezing coughing and jumping affects nearly 25,000,000 women every year in the United States. This problem affects women from all age groups and can be the result of childbirth or simply genetic predisposition to this condition. Incontinence causes embarrassment for the woman as well as a reduction in the quality of life.
Traditionally in the past and even currently urinary sling surgery has proved to be the most effective treatment for this problem Dr. Berenholz has inserted well over 1000 mid urethral sling’s for the treatment of incontinence. Almost all of them have been done in a matter of minutes transvaginally. While these procedures have succeeded there has never been a non-invasive approach to stress incontinence. Nothing until now.
Have you ever been to a restaurant and suddenly had an urge to go to the bathroom but didn’t quite make it in time? That is a typical example of what we call urge incontinence. This problem plagues millions of women throughout the United States and affects any woman between the ages of 25 and 65. Treatment usually involves medication which in general works but unfortunately does have some side effects. Women with glaucoma cannot take these medications.
Dr. Joseph Berenholz has been treating women with urge incontinence for years successfully using the Emsella chair. Women are treated with high-intensity electromagnetic wave therapy. While the Emsella chair has been approved by the FDA for stress urinary incontinence it has been found effective for both urge incontinence as well as overactive bladder. Overactive bladder is the symptomatology of the bladder simply voiding itself on any moment’s notice with any type of stimulation. Dr. Berenholz has used the Emsella chair successfully for all the scenarios.
Overactive bladder or involuntary loss of urine has been a problem for millions of women throughout the United States. Perhaps no one has been more innovative or at the forefront of new technological advances in this area as has Dr. Joseph Berenholz. For years doctors have tried to control overactive bladder with medication. In many instances, the medication works but unfortunately, the side effects leave patients unhappy and noncompliant. Surgery cannot correct this problem but now Dr. Berenholz has the answer. High Intensity Electromagnetic Wave Therapy with the Emsella Chair has provided near miraculous improvements in many of his patients. Incontinence affects nearly 30 million women in the United States and produces a cost in pads and diapers to the tune of billions of dollars. But incontinence can be controlled without medication and without surgery for many patients with the Emsella chair. Dr. Berenholz was the first physician in the United States to conduct the first full study of the electromagnetic high-intensity therapy for incontinence. This therapy is now available for women around the country. Dr. Berenholz has patients traveling from all over the state of Michigan so that they may treat what would seem to be a hopeless situation of overactive bladder and urinary stress incontinence.
