Electrical stimulation of the urethra is a procedure of applying electric current to the muscles of the urethra.
Electrical stimulation of the urethra is a procedure that involves applying electric current to the muscles of the urethra.

General information

When the pulsed current passes through the tissue membranes, charged ions accumulate in one place. This "excites" the cell and transfers the effect to the motor nerve or muscle.

Electro-stimulation of the urethra accelerates blood flow and cellular metabolism processes, as well as RNA synthesis. The level of insulin and somatotropic hormone increases.

The procedure stimulates local defense mechanisms, thereby restoring the walls of the urethra, and gradually builds up the sphincter muscles.

Procedure

Preparation

You should undergo a medical examination by a physiotherapist, take a general urine and blood test.

Rehabilitation period

Indications

Electro-stimulation is prescribed for inflammation of the urethra and urinary disorders.

Contraindications
