EMS for Managing and Treating Bladder Problems in Multiple Sclerosis: Understanding Multiple Sclerosis and Bladder Issues
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a neurological condition affecting individuals, it disrupts nerve signals in the brain and spinal cord, leading to symptoms like movement difficulties, balance issues, and vision problems. MS typically affects people in their 20s and 30s but can occur at any age, being two to three times more common in women than in men.
Approximately 80% of people with MS experience bladder dysfunction. This happens when MS lesions interfere with nerve signals that regulate bladder and urinary sphincter control. As a result, individuals may experience:
Pelvic floor therapy is a recommended treatment for those with overactive bladder symptoms. This therapy focuses on strengthening the pelvic muscles connected to the pelvic bone and sacrum, which play a crucial role in bladder and bowel health. Techniques include pelvic floor training, biofeedback, and neuromuscular stimulation, which help improve muscle control and reduce urinary urgency.
Recent clinical studies indicate that combining pelvic floor exercises with Electrical Stimulation (ES) using skin electrodes shows promising results. Reports show that 78-85% of patients experienced improved bladder and bowel function, highlighting the importance of daily home ES treatments for MS patients.
