An exciting new treatment for female urinary incontinence was launched this week in Drogheda Medical Clinic. ThermiVa, a new radio frequency thermal heat treatment that stimulates production of new collagen in vulvo-vaginal region resulting in an overall tightening was launched by the principal of Drogheda Medical Clinic, Dr Oliver Lynn with his practice nurses Julie McDonnell and Martina Finnegan.
Female urinary incontinence is more than a health issue; it affects womens social, psychological and emotional wellbeing. ThermiVa is a non-surgical, in-office procedure using radiofrequency energy to heat vulvo-vaginal tissue causing tightening of tissue, increasing collagen production (which restores suppleness of tissue), and increases blood flow.
Up until now, physiotherapy exercises and surgery where the main stay of treatment for this distressing condition of urinary stress incontinence.
Now Thermiva offers a non-invasive, non-hormonal, no anaesthetic, and no downtime, in a surgery setting without hospitalisation. This gives 80% success in the treatment of stress incontinence and several other health benefits.
Dr. Lynn said the ease of access of this new treatment and its simplicity with immediate benefits will be the key to its success. it is the first of its type in Ireland in a primary care setting.
