Sessions near home
Canton patients use magnetic pelvic floor therapy through our team, and an evaluation at our Canton office comes first. We'll ask about leaks, urgency and any pelvic discomfort, test your urine and explain how the chair works. You sit fully clothed while magnetic pulses make the pelvic floor muscles contract.
How our urologists combine it with home exercise
Pelvic floor exercises, often called Kegels, can be continued alongside chair sessions, and many people find the chair helps them learn which muscles to squeeze. Women and men both use the treatment, for stress leakage, urgency and leakage after prostate surgery. We'll suggest a schedule and check progress partway through.
When to call
- Burning or blood in the urine
- Pelvic pain that increases
- Leaks that suddenly worsen
Questions about the chair
Common questions
Do I need to undress?
No. You stay fully clothed for every session.
Is it right for everyone?
No. Magnetic therapy isn't used with a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, metal implants in the pelvis, or during pregnancy. We review your health history before the first session.
Canton, Holly Springs and Woodstock residents can schedule an evaluation by calling (678) 344-8900.
Sessions are short, and you can go straight back to work or errands afterward. Most plans involve a series of visits over several weeks, and we'll talk about whether occasional maintenance sessions make sense once you've finished. Keeping up home exercises between sessions helps hold onto the gains, and we'll show you a simple routine to follow.
Men recovering from prostate surgery often start once the catheter is out and we've given the go-ahead.
We'll check in partway through to see how leaks have changed.
