INNOVO Strengthens the Entire Pelvic Floor Musculature

INNOVO stimulates the nerve tree as it branches throughout the pelvic floor.

Targeted impulses are sent via conductive pads producing over 180 perfect contractions per session. Users can actually feel their entire pelvic floor muscles being “lifted” without having to do any voluntary activation. Therefore INNOVO improves pelvic floor muscle strength and control, directly targeting a primary cause of stress urinary incontinence.

Pelvic floor disorders (PFDs) occur when the muscles supporting pelvic organs such as the bladder become weak or damaged. This in turn can adversely affect quality of life, as a weak pelvic floor or an inability to properly contract the pelvic floor can often be root causes of urinary incontinence.

• It is currently estimated that over 5 million women in the UK experience the symptoms of urinary incontinence and of these, half of all sufferers aged between 18 and 65 years of age are moderately or greatly bothered by it¹
• About one third of women experience urinary incontinence after giving birth, and over 65% of these women are still affected by it 12 years later²
• 23% of women with urinary incontinence say that it reduces their activity level; 23% state that it adversely affects their sex life; and 31% dress differently because of their symptoms¹

Whilst pelvic floor disorders mainly affect women, they can also affect men. Patients may contact you or other healthcare professionals such as GPs, midwives, physiotherapists, urologists, gynaecologists, or incontinence care specialists to ask for help.

INNOVO has been developed by Atlantic Therapeutics⁴, a leading innovator in muscle conditioning and strengthening products with a 50-year history of delivering effective, clinically proven restorative health solutions in muscle rehabilitation and conditioning. It also meets the conformity requirements in the Medical Devices Directive (MDD).

INNOVO is a non-invasive, safe, and effective form of electrical muscle stimulation. It is clinically proven to improve pelvic floor muscle contraction and diminish urine loss in pelvic floor disorders³. Using an INNOVO hand-held controller that is attached to an easy to use garment similar to a pair of cycling shorts, INNOVO produces highly focused, accurately coordinated, and effective pelvic floor muscle contractions that help rehabilitate the pelvic floor musculature.
