Shockwave therapy for erectile dysfunction

Shockwave therapy for men actually sounds quite scary. but it is a non-invasive procedure used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED). It involves the use of low-intensity sound waves to stimulate blood vessel growth and improve blood flow to the penis. one reason for erectile under performance can be inflammation of the blood vessels or tissue damage.  This therapy helps to enhance the blood flow to the peripheral of the organ. The therapy delivers pulsating waves to the penile tissues, which stimulates the release of growth factors and promotes the formation of new blood vessels.  this thus enhance the firmness of the erection.  Low intensity shock wave therapy (LiSWT) is a regenerative therapy that uses shockwaves to encourage regeneration of blood vessels and nerves. 

WHAT HAPPENS DURING A SESSION OF SHOCKWAVE THERAPY 

During a typical session, The doctor or urologist applies a warm gel to the penis and uses a device to administer the shockwaves. The treatment is usually painless and takes about 15-20 minutes. It is believed to help restore erectile function by improving the health of penile blood vessels and promoting the regeneration of erectile tissue by creating better quality and younger tissue. I have clients who have tried it and said it did not feel too uncomfortable. He had it done at the Tan Tock Seng hospital. 

Shockwave therapy for ED has shown promising results in clinical studies, with many men experiencing improved erections and sexual performance. It is a non-surgical and drug-free alternative to other ED treatments, such as medication or surgical interventions. However, it is important to note that individual results may vary.

Before undergoing shockwave therapy, please consult with a healthcare professional who specializes in the treatment of ED to determine if this therapy is suitable for you.
