Often men are overlooked in patient treatment for Pelvic Muscle Rehabilitation. Besides pre and post prostatectomy treatment with PFT, many of our urology practices see male patients with scrotal pain and use PFT with great results. Patients are seen twice a week for pain. First determine if there is a high baseline resting tone (which is usually the case). Treating 100 Hz and 12.5 Hz intermittent stim or one continuous and one intermittent 15minutes of each twice a week. Patients report doing great with this therapy and always consider a home stim unit like the Pathway® STM-10 Vaginal and Rectal Intracavity Stimulator after the attended sessions.
