Hard Facts About the Soft Truth: Treating Erectile Dysfunction at the Source
Protect your erection
Let’s focus on the physiological process of erections: when sexually aroused, the muscles of the penis relax and allow increased blood flow into the shaft. This blood comes through the penile arteries and, as the shaft fills with blood, it becomes hard and rigid. Erectile dysfunction occurs when the blood fails to flow adequately. There are a range of causes for this including:
- Side effects related to surgery or injury
- Side effects of medication, alcohol or drug use
- Narrowing of the blood vessels due to high blood pressure, cholesterol and diabetes
- Hormonal problems
- Mental problems including stress, anxiety and depression.
Going back to the source: a new approach to treatment of erectile dysfunction
At Relief Medical Group, we offer a unique and groundbreaking form of therapy that is showing great success in treating erectile dysfunction. Because traditional medications tend to treat only the symptoms of erectile dysfunction and not the underlying cause, we also offer a therapy that treats the problem at its source.
Acoustic compression, also known as extracorporeal shockwave therapy, is an FDA-approved technology that uses low-intensity extracorporeal shockwaves to stimulate the natural and spontaneous flow of blood that creates erections. Widely used for improving blood flow to help people recovery from injury, the shockwave create micro-tears in the tissue which in turn spurs the body’s natural healing response; the body responds by sending increased blood flow to the affected area.
