Endeavour Hills Medical Centre at 61 Heatherton Road, Endeavour Hills, offers comprehensive, professional and friendly services.
Practice manager Catrina Cincotta said the centre has state-of-the-art facilities and prides itself on giving the best possible services and experience to patients.
Practice Nurse Alison Lee has just added a new treatment for incontinence and pelvic floor rehabilitation.
“Endeavour Hills Medical Centre has offered this service since March and we are having some amazing success for many male and female patients,“ she said.
“Many patients who have undergone the treatment have reported marked improvements in their incontinence and this can be life changing.
“The patient is assessed for suitability of this treatment by one of our GPs and receives a course of treatment which is painless, non-invasive and at no cost to the patient.
Each treatment sessions involves 20 minutes of magnetic pelvic floor stimulation which the fully clothed patient remains comfortably seated on the Neotonus TM chair. A therapeutic pulsed magnetic field produces powerful stimulation to vital muscles that cannot be activated through pelvic floor exercise alone.
She said until recently this treatment was available through specialists such as urologists and gynecologists.
It’s effectiveness for many people encouraged Endeavour Hills Medical Centre to acquire the equipment to offer this service to patients.
