usually elicit a muscle contraction,
which is required for an effective toning
of the pelvic floor muscles.
10. PROGRAMMES
10.1. PROGRAMME SETTINGS
10.2. PRESET PROGRAMMES
The perfect PFE has five preset
programmes. One for each type of
incontinence (stress, urge and mixed),
one for toning the pelvic floor muscles
(
TONE ), and one for chronic pelvic pain
( PAIN ).
STRESS INCONTINENCE:
Shown on the screen as: STRES
The STRES incontinence programme
strengthens the muscles of the pelvic
floor using gentle stimulation. Once
these muscles are stronger they are
better able to resist urinary leakage
caused by external pressure being
applied to the bladder such as with a
cough, sneeze or physical exertion.
The stimulation causes the muscles to
contract and work. This builds their
strength. Like other fitness training,
successful
treatment requires
stimulation once a day for one to three
months. Improvement starts becoming
apparent after about four weeks.
The sensation is like a strong drawing
in of the muscles of the vagina, pulling
up the pelvic floor. Your natural reaction
will be to pull your muscles in and up,
and this exercises and strengthens
them.
URGE INCONTINENCE:
Shown on the screen as: URGE
The URGE programme works in a
different way to the STRES
programme. The gentle continuous
stimulation
soothes the bladder
(detrusor) muscle, reducing its
involuntary contractions. This prevents
the
unwanted and unexpected
emptying of the bladder.
Successful treatment requires
stimulation once a day and
improvements can sometimes be seen
in as little as two weeks.
The sensation is a softer, vibrating,
stimulation. Nevertheless, when the
programme finishes, and your pelvic
floor relaxes, it will become apparent
how much your pelvic floor has been
exercised.
