A Pelvic Chair is a device that uses electromagnetic energy to stimulate the pelvic floor muscles and improve their strength and function. Pelvic floor muscles are important for supporting the bladder, bowel, and reproductive organs, and for controlling urinary and fecal continence. A pelvic chair can help treat or prevent conditions such as urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, sexual dysfunction, and chronic pelvic pain.
The Pelvic Chair procedure is usually done in a clinic or a spa by a trained technician or a doctor. The procedure involves sitting on a specially designed chair that emits electromagnetic waves through the pelvic area. The waves cause the pelvic floor muscles to contract and relax, similar to doing Kegel exercises, but without any effort. The procedure usually takes about 20 to 30 minutes and is painless and comfortable. Some people may feel a tingling or pulsing sensation, but most people find it relaxing.
There is no downtime after a Pelvic Chair procedure, and you can resume your normal activities right away. However, you should drink plenty of water and avoid alcohol, caffeine, and salt for at least 24 hours after the session, as these may interfere with the pelvic chair effects and cause dehydration. You may also experience some mild side effects, such as increased urination, fatigue, or mild flu-like symptoms, but these usually subside within a few days. You should contact your doctor if you have any signs of infection, allergic reaction, or serious complications.
You may be a good candidate for a Pelvic Chair if you have any conditions or issues that affect your pelvic floor muscles, such as urinary or fecal incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, sexual dysfunction, or chronic pelvic pain. You should also be in good health, have realistic expectations, and understand the risks and benefits of the procedure. However, a pelvic chair may not be suitable for everyone. You should not get a pelvic chair if you have any of the following conditions or situations:
At Ciplastic, the starting cost for a Pelvic Chair procedure is $150 usd per session. Your final cost will depend on your specific individual needs.
The effects of a Pelvic Chair are not permanent and may vary from person to person. Most people notice an improvement in their symptoms and quality of life after the treatment, and the results may last for several months or years. However, the results may fade over time, as the pelvic floor muscles may weaken due to aging, lifestyle, or other factors. To maintain the results, you should follow a healthy lifestyle, do regular pelvic floor exercises, and get maintenance treatments once or twice a year.
A Pelvic Chair is generally safe and effective when performed by a qualified and experienced provider. However, like any medical procedure, it carries some risks and potential complications. These include:
