What is Pelvic Floor Dysfunction or Incontinence?

Pelvic floor dysfunction occurs when the muscles that support the bladder, bowel, and pelvic organs become weak, uncoordinated, or imbalanced, leading to urinary leaks with coughing or exercise, sudden urges, frequent bathroom trips, and pelvic discomfort. It’s a very common condition: about one in three women experiences a pelvic floor disorder in her lifetime, and urinary incontinence affects roughly 15-25% of adult women in the U.S. alone. Early evaluation and targeted treatment can improve function and quality of life.

Symptoms of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction/Incontinence

Pelvic floor dysfunction can show up in subtle or disruptive ways. Common symptoms include:

Bladder leaks when coughing, sneezing, laughing, or exercising
Sudden, strong urges to urinate that are hard to control
Frequent trips to the bathroom or waking at night to urinate
Weak urine stream or difficulty fully emptying the bladder
Pelvic pressure, discomfort, or a feeling of heaviness
Reduced core stability or discomfort during physical activity

Gazelle: Your Pelvic Floor/Incontinence Treatment

At Arch Medical Group, pelvic floor and incontinence treatment in St. Pete starts with a detailed clinical evaluation. We assess your symptoms, medical history, lifestyle factors, and contributing neuromuscular or pelvic imbalances to determine whether pelvic floor dysfunction is the root cause. From there, we curate a personalized treatment plan using Gazelle and select the appropriate session frequency and intensity based on your specific goals.

Gazelle™ is an FDA-cleared pelvic floor therapy that uses focused electromagnetic stimulation to activate deep pelvic muscles and their nerves. These magnetic fields can trigger thousands of involuntary, supramaximal muscle contractions per session, far beyond what can be achieved through voluntary exercises like Kegels. This helps retrain neuromuscular pathways, strengthen weakened muscles, improve coordination, and enhance pelvic support.

Advantages of Gazelle Pelvic Floor Treatment:

Completely noninvasive treatment with no surgery, needles, or probes
Fully clothed, seated sessions that maintain optimal comfort and privacy
Targets deep pelvic floor muscles that are difficult to activate with exercises alone
Produces thousands of therapeutic muscle contractions in a single session
No downtime, allowing you to return to normal activities immediately
Personalized treatment intensity based on your symptoms and goals
Suitable for both men and women experiencing incontinence

How does Gazelle compare to pelvic floor exercises like Kegels?

What does a Gazelle treatment session feel like?

During treatment, you sit fully clothed on the Gazelle chair while electromagnetic pulses activate your pelvic floor muscles. Most people describe the sensation as rhythmic muscle contractions or gentle pulsing. It isn’t painful, and many patients find the sessions relaxing.

How many treatments will I need?

Treatment plans are personalized. Many patients complete a series of sessions over several weeks, often two to three times per week. Some people notice improvements early, while others experience gradual progress as muscles strengthen and coordination improves. Maintenance sessions may be recommended to help sustain results.

Is there any downtime after treatment?

No. Gazelle pelvic floor treatment involves no recovery time. You can return to work, exercise, or daily activities immediately after your session, making it easy to fit into a busy schedule.

How does Gazelle compare to pelvic floor exercises like Kegels?

Kegels rely on your ability to correctly activate pelvic muscles, which many struggle to do consistently. Gazelle uses electromagnetic stimulation to trigger deep, involuntary contractions that are far stronger and more precise than those produced through voluntary exercise. This helps retrain neuromuscular pathways and build strength more efficiently.
