Our team of experts is committed to providing compassionate, individualized care that addresses your specific needs. Here’s a closer look at some of the services we offer:
Fecal Incontinence Treatment
Living with fecal incontinence can be emotionally draining and socially isolating. We offer a range of treatments, from lifestyle modifications to advanced surgical options, to help you regain control and restore your dignity. We also offer a non-invasive therapy with EMS technology:
- Pelvic floor therapy with EMSELLA: It is a non-invasive treatment that uses electromagnetic energy to target pelvic floor muscles, improving incontinence issues. Clinical studies show that 95% of patients report a better quality of life post-treatment.
Solesta Injection for Fecal Incontinence
For those seeking a minimally invasive option, the Solesta injection offers a ray of hope. This simple procedure can significantly reduce symptoms, allowing you to engage in daily activities without the constant worry of an accident.
Constipation Treatment
Chronic constipation is more than just a physical discomfort; it can affect your emotional well-being and overall quality of life. Our comprehensive approach includes dietary changes, medications, and in some cases, surgical interventions to relieve your symptoms and improve your digestive health.
Rectal Prolapse Surgery
A rectal prolapse can be a distressing condition that impacts your comfort and lifestyle. Our surgical solutions aim to correct the issue at its root, offering you a long-term resolution and the freedom to live your life without limitations.
Rectocele Surgery
Rectocele can significantly impact a woman’s quality of life, affecting both bowel function and sexual health. Our surgical procedures are designed to repair the weakened wall between the rectum and vagina, restoring normal function and comfort.
Sacral Nerve Stimulation Implant
For those dealing with severe symptoms that don’t respond to other treatments, a sacral nerve stimulation implant can offer a new lease on life. This advanced technology modulates the nerve signals between your brain and pelvic floor, offering a revolutionary approach to managing pelvic health issues.
Anal Manometry Testing
Understanding the root cause of your symptoms is the first step in effective treatment. Our anal manometry testing provides valuable insights into the functioning of your rectum and anal sphincters, allowing us to tailor your treatment plan with precision.
Tips for Maintaining Optimal Pelvic Health
Your pelvic health is an integral part of your overall well-being, and maintaining it should be a priority. At ColoWell America, we believe in empowering our patients with the knowledge and tools they need to take control of their pelvic health. Here are some expert-recommended tips to help you maintain a healthy pelvic floor and improve your quality of life:
Regular Exercise
Regular physical activity, especially exercises that focus on the pelvic floor, can be incredibly beneficial. Kegel exercises, for instance, can strengthen the pelvic floor muscles and improve urinary and fecal incontinence.
Balanced Diet
A balanced diet rich in fiber can help prevent constipation, a common issue that can strain the pelvic floor muscles. Include plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains in your daily meals.
Stay Hydrated
Proper hydration is essential for a healthy digestive system. Aim for at least eight 8-ounce glasses of water per day to keep your system running smoothly.
Mindful Bathroom Habits
Avoid straining during bowel movements and don’t ignore the urge to go. Straining can weaken the pelvic floor muscles over time.
Weight Management
Excess weight can put additional pressure on your pelvic floor muscles. Maintaining a healthy weight through diet and exercise can alleviate some of the stress on these muscles.
Regular Check-ups
Regular medical check-ups are crucial for early detection and treatment of any pelvic floor issues. Don’t hesitate to discuss any symptoms or concerns with your healthcare provider.
Limit Caffeine and Alcohol
Both caffeine and alcohol can irritate the bladder and may exacerbate urinary incontinence. Limiting your intake can make a significant difference.
Quit Smoking
Smoking can lead to chronic coughing, which puts additional stress on your pelvic floor muscles. Quitting smoking is beneficial for your pelvic health and your overall well-being.
Don’t Wait: Your Health Matters
Pelvic health is more than just a physical concern; it affects your daily life and overall well-being. If you face any symptoms or have concerns about your pelvic health, don’t hesitate. Early diagnosis and treatment are key to managing these issues effectively.
