Vaginal Laxity, Pelvic Floor Weakness & Laxity, Decreased Muscle ToneVaginal Laxity (VL) or Pelvic Floor Weakness/Laxity is a sensation of, or mechanical vaginal looseness which may develop after pregnancy and vaginal delivery and may be affected by prior pelvic surgery, menopause and aging. PTK also addresses decreased muscle tone. By strengthening the pelvic floor muscles you can tighten the internal structure of the pelvic walls & floor, which in turn lift the bladder to decrease leakage. How does PTK do that? Our Rotation 360 & Vibration features stimulate muscle contractions to strengthen the pelvic floor.
02
Vaginal Atrophy or Vulva AtrophyVaginal atrophy (atrophic vaginitis) is thinning, drying and inflammation of the vaginal walls that may occur when your body has less estrogen. Vaginal atrophy occurs most often after menopause. It may make intercourse painful but also leads to distressing urinary symptoms.
03
Bladder Control/Urine LeakageUrinary incontinence – the loss of bladder control – is a common and often embarrassing problem. The severity ranges from occasionally leaking urine when you cough or sneeze to having an urge to urinate so sudden and strong you don’t get to the toilet in time. Stress incontinence is when urine leaks when you exert pressure on tour bladder by coughing, sneezing, laughing, exercising or lifting something heavy. Urge incontinence is an experience of frequent or constant dribbling of urine due to a bladder that doesn’t empty completely. By addressing muscle tone, tightening & pelvic floor issues, a strengthened pelvic floor actually lifts the bladder for less to no leakage.
04
Urgency & FrequencyOveractive bladder, also called OAB, causes sudden & frequent urges to urinate that may be hard to control. There also might be loss of urine that isn’t intended, called urgency incontinence. People with an overactive bladder might feel self-conscious. This can cause some to keep away from others or limit their work and social life.
05
Muscle ToneYour pelvic floor muscles hold the major organs in your pelvis in place and protect them. Muscle control – the ability to squeeze and relax your pelvic floor muscles coordinate with your urethra for control of urine elimination. PTK’s shape & Rotation 360 & Vibration feature stimulate muscle contractions like “kegels” to strengthen the pelvic floor. PTK does the work so you don’t have too! Once it stops spinning you have achieved maximum tightening.
06
Vaginal Dryness & MoistureThe hormone estrogen helps maintain that fluid and keeps the lining of your vaginal healthy, thick, and elastic, and a lack of vaginal moisture can have a huge impact on your sex life. These levels may drop in menopause and aging decreasing natural blood flow. PTK increases the natural blood flow with renewed, healthier tissue that promotes an increase in natural moisture.
07
Sexual/Orgasmic DysfunctionsSexual/Orgasmic Dysfunction is anything that prevents you from feeling pleasure form sexual activity. Things like stress, health conditions, medication, or past sexual trauma can cause it. With healthier, renewed tissue comes more sensitivity, sensation & blood flow.
08
Pelvic Floor DisordersPelvic floor dysfunction is a common condition where you can’t correctly relax and coordinate the … to urinate (pee) or to have a bowel movement (poop). PTK also concentrates on the treatment of pelvic floor health & strength.
09
Decreased Sensation & SensitivityMany women experience problems with sexual function at some point, and some have difficulties throughout their lives. Female sexual dysfunction can occur at any stage of life. It can occur only in certain situations or in all sexual situations. It may also be cause by decreased blood flow to the clitoral hood and vaginal areas. PTK’s therapeutic heat is proven to increase sensitivity & sensation with the increase of blood flow through healthier, renewed tissue.
