Enhancing Women’s Quality of Life at ViveWell Health

Pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) is a prevalent yet often overlooked condition affecting many women, especially following childbirth, trauma, hormone imbalances, or surgeries. At ViveWell Health, we approach the complexity of PFD with a thorough understanding of its impact on a woman’s quality of life. Employing a holistic approach that integrates advanced therapies and a collaborative partnership with skilled physical therapists, we aim to effectively address and treat this condition.

Understanding Pelvic Floor Dysfunction

pelvic floor dysfunction

Pelvic floor dysfunction refers to a range of issues that occur when the muscles are weak, tight, or there is an impairment of the sacroiliac joints, lower back, coccyx, or hip joints. The symptoms of PFD can include urinary or fecal incontinence, discomfort during intercourse, lower back pain, and pelvic pain. Such symptoms significantly affect one’s lifestyle and emotional well-being.

Why ViveWell Health’s Approach is Unique

ViveWell is a partner in health. We collaborate extensively with physical therapists and utilize a variety of therapeutic techniques tailored to individual needs. Here’s a breakdown of some of the specialized treatments offered at ViveWell to combat pelvic floor dysfunction:

Frankenhauser Technique

The Frankenhauser Technique, also called a paracervical or parauterine injection, is a series of prolozone injections targeting the abdomen and pelvis. These injections administer nutrients and ozone around the affected areas to relieve pain, promote tissue regeneration, reduce inflammation and stimulate a healing response within the pelvic organs and floor. This treatment offers a potent therapeutic option for those suffering from pelvic conditions such as painful menstruation, endometriosis, post-surgical recovery, chronic bladder problems, interstitial cystitis, and other syndromes related to pelvic weakness. To enhance the effectiveness of the healing response, we often incorporate a triple peptide blend to accelerate soft tissue healing and improve blood flow.

FemiWave Therapy

FemiWave is a groundbreaking extracorporeal shockwave therapy that transmits pulses of energy through the tissues. This stimulates increased blood flow and collagen production, essential for tissue repair and health. Clinically vetted, FemiWave has shown significant improvements in patients, making it a core component of our treatment arsenal against pelvic floor dysfunction.

PRP Vixen Shot

The PRP Vixen Shot is a state-of-the-art treatment utilizing platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to deliver growth factors directly to the affected area. This therapy is incredibly beneficial for managing urinary incontinence by promoting tissue regeneration and enhancing muscle strength in the pelvic floor. Additionally, it alleviates vaginal dryness, enhances sexual satisfaction, and strengthens the surrounding muscles, offering a comprehensive solution to various pelvic health issues.

Peptide Therapies

At ViveWell, we offer a series of peptide therapies that have diverse benefits, including boosting testosterone and growth hormones, promoting soft tissue repair, and much more. These peptides are carefully selected to support the body’s natural healing processes and improve overall hormonal balance.

Hormone Balancing

Hormonal imbalances can significantly contribute to the severity of pelvic floor dysfunction. Our hormone-balancing treatments are designed to stabilize hormonal levels, using personalized therapy plans based on thorough assessments and tests. By restoring hormonal balance, many patients see a substantial improvement in their PFD symptoms.

Ozone Major Autohemotherapy

Ozone major autohemotherapy is an innovative treatment that involves infusing ozone into the bloodstream. This technique has been shown to activate the immune system, enhance oxygen metabolism, and reduce inflammation, which are beneficial for patients with chronic pelvic pain associated with PFD.

Exosomes

Exosome therapy is one of the latest advances in regenerative medicine offered at ViveWell. Exosomes are extracellular vesicles that are rich in growth factors and cytokines, promoting cell communication and regeneration. This therapy has shown potential in enhancing tissue repair and reducing inflammation.

We also focus extensively on women’s sexual wellness and hormonal health, recognizing the vital role they play in overall well-being. Our range of services includes:
