Training the control of ejaculation is an important element in caring for premature ejaculation, because ejaculation is a joint response of the nervous system and the muscles, not merely a matter of intention or of controlling the mind alone.
The technology of Pelvic Magnetic Stimulation together with Biofeedback (PMS Biofeedback) is an approach to training that has a physiological basis, helping men understand the working of their own muscles of the pelvic floor better, and train the control of the timing of the contraction of the muscles connected with ejaculation systematically.
This article explains the mechanism, the steps, and the suitability of PMS Biofeedback in medical terms, for those who are looking for an approach to training the control of ejaculation on a proper principle.
What is PMS Biofeedback in terms of the technology?
PMS, or Peripheral Magnetic Stimulation, is a technology using electromagnetic waves to stimulate the contraction of the muscles of the pelvic floor at the highest level (Supramaximal Contraction), which is a level of contraction that is difficult to achieve by tensing the muscles oneself in the normal way.
When PMS is brought to be used together with Biofeedback, which is a system displaying the working of the muscles in real time, the person receiving care will be able to see and understand the pattern of the working of their own muscles more clearly, together with training the release and the control of the timing of the muscles, in order to be able to control the timing of ejaculation.
The mechanism of caring for premature ejaculation with PMS Biofeedback
Ejaculation is connected with the contraction of the bulbospongiosus and ischiocavernosus muscles. In men who have premature ejaculation from hyperactivity of the muscles of the pelvic floor (Pelvic Floor Hyperactivity), this group of muscles is usually in a state of held spasm, and contracts too quickly when stimulation is received.
PMS Biofeedback helps at 2 important levels. The first level is stimulating the muscles to contract at the highest level, in order to increase the effectiveness of the working of the muscles of the pelvic floor. The second level is training the person receiving care to learn the release and the control of the timing of the muscles deliberately, in order to support the creation of a new nerve circuit in which the brain can command the delaying of the timing of the contraction more precisely.
The steps of receiving care with PMS Biofeedback
The steps begin with assessing the condition of the muscles of the pelvic floor, in order to see whether there is a state of too much spasm, of too much slackness, or whether there are hidden points of pain (Trigger Points) as well. After that the doctor designs a programme of stimulation suited to each individual.
During the receiving of care, the person receiving care will sit on equipment that sends electromagnetic waves through the clothing; there is no need to insert any device, and there is no pain. The length of time each session is in general about 20–30 minutes, while the frequency and the number of sessions will depend on the plan of care that the doctor designs.
Who is suited to care with PMS Biofeedback?
This approach may be suited to men who have premature ejaculation together with spasm of the muscles of the pelvic floor, abnormal hyperactivity of the muscles, or chronic pelvic pain (CPPS) as well.
However, the suitability must be assessed individually by a doctor. In some people it may be necessary to use PMS Biofeedback together with other technologies or procedures, such as Focused Shockwave, in order to adjust and reduce the sensitivity of the nerves, and make the plan of care cover both the nervous system and the muscles.
The role of PMS Biofeedback in the plan of care at PYONG MEN
At PYONG MEN, the technology of PMS Biofeedback is one of the elements of an integrated plan of care for premature ejaculation, possibly used together with assessing and caring for inflammation in the pelvic floor, adjusting and reducing the sensitivity of the nerves, and releasing knots of muscle held in tension with specific medical techniques.
The design of the whole plan of care will depend on the result of the assessment specific to the individual, with the goal of training the ability to control the timing naturally, rather than relying continuously on local anaesthetic.
In brief
- PMS Biofeedback uses electromagnetic waves to stimulate the contraction of the muscles of the pelvic floor at the highest level, together with a display of the result in real time
- This technology helps train the control of the timing of the contraction of the muscles connected with ejaculation
- It suits premature ejaculation that has its basis in hyperactivity of the muscles of the pelvic floor
- No device is inserted, there is no pain, and it can be done through the clothing
- The suitability depends on assessment by a doctor individually, and it may be used together with other technologies in the plan of care
Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
1. Does PMS Biofeedback hurt? It does not hurt. It can be done through the clothing using equipment that sends electromagnetic waves; no device at all is inserted.
2. How many sessions must be done for a change to be seen? The number of sessions depends on the cause of the premature ejaculation and on the response of each individual. The plan of care in general is over a period of 2–3 months.
3. How does PMS Biofeedback work differently from tensing the muscles oneself? PMS stimulates the muscles to contract at a level that is difficult to control oneself in the normal way, while Biofeedback helps the person receiving care see and understand the working of the muscles, which makes the training of control more on target and more systematic.
4. Is it suited to everyone who has premature ejaculation? Not always. The suitability depends on the cause in each individual. In a case where the leading cause is hypersensitive nerves, other technologies may have to be considered as well.
5. Must it be used together with other treatment? In many people, a comprehensive plan of care will combine PMS Biofeedback with other technologies, such as Focused Shockwave, according to the result of the assessment.
