Erectile Dysfunction Treatments
Shockwave Therapy
Erectile dysfunction is usually the result of poor circulation to the penis. The Canadian Study of Erectile Dysfunction identified that 49.4% of men over 40 suffered from ED.
ED Shockwave Therapy is an innovative medical treatment that uses low intensity sound waves to treat the vascular cause of erectile dysfunction, and not just its symptoms.
The aim of ED shockwave therapy (EDSWT) is to trigger regeneration of blood vessel in the penile shaft to support stronger, longer, and more satisfying erection.
Erectile Dysfunction Shockwave Therapy (EDSWT) is generally a painless treatment that can potentially help men regain sexual desire and satisfaction.
EDSWT could be a viable option for you if:
You are willing to be less dependent on taking medications to have sex
You have experienced undesirable side effects of drugs or other treatments
You have not achieved satisfactory results with other ED treatments
You have health conditions that limit your options for treatment
You wish to have harder, longer lasting erections
The energy pulses in EDSWT are similar to sound waves. There’s usually no discomfort during or after the procedure.
Many patients are not sure what to expect from the treatment but it is very straightforward. Patients are asked to remove their clothing below the waist.
Our doctor or technician will move a wand over the base and shaft of the penis, focusing energy waves on the arteries in the corpora cavernosa.
Patients usually do not experience significant pain or discomfort during the treatment. Some may feel tingling afterwards – like you might after your hand or foot falls sleep.
There are no reports that show major risks or complications of shockwave treatment of the penis.
EDSWT takes under a half hour, making the appointment easy to schedule for working men. There is no downtime or recovery period and you can return to sexual activity immediately.
