The muscles of the pelvic floor in men have an important role, both in holding the blood during the erection, in controlling the rhythm of ejaculation, and in supporting the structure of the pelvic floor overall

When this group of muscles works out of balance, it may lead to a state of weakened capability, a state of early ejaculation, and a state of chronic pain in the pelvic floor (CPPS). The Advanced Pelvic Neuro-Vascular Protocol is a programme that uses the technology of electromagnetic waves together with high-power laser, in order to restore the balance of the working of the muscles of the pelvic floor in men structurally

This article explains the mechanism, the indications, and the method of assessing the suitability before beginning the programme

How do the muscles of the pelvic floor of men work

The group of muscles Ischiocavernosus, Bulbospongiosus, and Levator ani are the important muscles at the area of the pelvic floor. These muscles help hold the blood in the sponge-like bodies while erect, control the rhythm of the ejaculation of sperm, and support the structure of the organs inside the pelvic floor

When this group of muscles is weak, a state of blood leaking out (Venous Leak) may arise. Conversely, if the muscles are held contracted and tense, it may lead to symptoms of chronic pain and a rhythm of ejaculation that is too quick

The principle of Peripheral Magnetic Stimulation | PMS

Peripheral Magnetic Stimulation | PMS is a technology that uses electromagnetic waves to induce the muscles to contract at a level that ordinary muscles cannot achieve by exercising by themselves (Supramaximal Contraction)

The electromagnetic waves can be sent through clothing, without it being necessary to touch the skin directly, and without inserting any equipment into the body. This contraction at the highest level in a rhythm that can be controlled helps train the muscles to work more regularly, and supports the creation of a new circuit controlling the neuromuscular system

The role of the High Power Laser in the Protocol

In the context of a pelvic floor that has inflammation at the micro level or has hidden points of pain, the high-power laser is used in order to help reduce local inflammation, stimulate the working of the lymph glands, and increase the circulation of the blood in the tissue

The use of the High Power Laser together with PMS is therefore the care both of the working of the muscles and of the environment of the tissue connected with the symptoms

The indications met in clinical practice

The Advanced Pelvic Neuro-Vascular Protocol (APNP) is usually considered in cases that have the following character

  • A state of weakened sexual capability that has a component of a deficient system of closing off the veins (Venous Leak)
  • A state of early ejaculation that has a component of the muscles of the pelvic floor working too quickly
  • A state of chronic pain in the pelvic floor (CPPS) connected with the contraction and tension of the muscles
  • Restoration in the male age of change that has an accompanying component of the muscles and of the system of the blood vessels

The assessment before beginning the programme

Before beginning the APNP, the physician assesses the tightness and the strength of the muscles of the pelvic floor specifically, as well as examining to find hidden points of pain (Trigger Points) and assessing the system of the blood vessels with Penile Color Doppler Ultrasonography

These assessments help the physician be able to consider whether the protocol corresponds with the cause of the symptoms in each individual or not

The Advanced Pelvic Neuro-Vascular Protocol (APNP) at PYONG MEN

At PYONG MEN, the Advanced Pelvic Neuro-Vascular Protocol is used as one component in the plan of care for states connected with the working of the muscles of the pelvic floor, the nervous system, and the system of the blood vessels, such as a state of weakened sexual capability, a state of early ejaculation, a state of chronic pain in the pelvic floor (CPPS), and restoration in the male age of change

In short summary

  • The Advanced Pelvic Neuro-Vascular Protocol (APNP) is a programme of restoring the male pelvic floor that combines PMS and the High Power Laser in order to care for the working of the muscles, the nervous system, and the environment of the tissue
  • PMS uses electromagnetic waves to induce the contraction of the muscles of the pelvic floor at the highest level, in order to help train the working of the muscles and of the neuromuscular system
  • The High Power Laser is used together in order to help reduce local inflammation and support the circulation of the blood in the tissue
  • It is used in plans of treatment covering ED, PE, CPPS, and the male age of change that have an accompanying component of the muscles of the pelvic floor, the nervous system, or the system of the blood vessels

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

1. Does the APNP require equipment to be inserted into the body? It does not. This protocol uses PMS. This technology uses electromagnetic waves that can be sent through clothing; it is not necessary to touch the skin directly or to insert equipment into the body. As for the High Power Laser, it is the use of the energy of light from outside at the area that the physician assesses as suitable

2. What does it feel like while doing the APNP? The one receiving the service feels the contraction of the muscles of the pelvic floor at a level that cannot be achieved by exercising by oneself. It may feel strange in the first period, but it does not give rise to pain

3. Which states does the APNP suit? The APNP is usually considered in a state of weakened capability connected with Venous Leak, a state of early ejaculation, a state of CPPS, and a plan of restoration for the male age of change, particularly in cases that have an accompanying component of the muscles of the pelvic floor, the nervous system, or the system of the blood vessels. The physician assesses the suitability individually

4. How many sessions must be done before a result is seen? The plan of restoration at PYONG MEN usually takes a length of time of 2–3 months on average. The result depends on the cause of the symptoms, the level of abnormality of the muscles and the tissue, as well as the response of each individual

5. Can the APNP replace exercising the muscles of the pelvic floor by oneself? The APNP is not a programme used in place of caring for oneself entirely, but is a technology that helps train the muscles and the neuromuscular system at a level that ordinary exercise of the muscles of the pelvic floor may not reach. Using it together with care according to the recommendation of a physician usually helps the restoration have more direction and balance

Beginning to plan the restoration with a physician

Beginning with the assessment of the muscles of the pelvic floor, the nervous system, and the system of the blood vessels with a physician, in order to plan the restoration with the Advanced Pelvic Neuro-Vascular Protocol (APNP) so that it suits the cause of the symptoms in each individual
