Advanced Treatments
All treatments are minimally invasive outpatient procedures.
Overactive Bladder, Bowel Incontinence, Urinary Retention
• Axonics Therapy—Long-lasting treatment using a miniature implant to gently stimulate nerves that control the bladder & bowel.
• Bulkamid—Bulking agent for stress urinary incontinence that restores the natural closing of the urethra.
• Botox—Injections for overactive bladder & urinary incontinence.
Enlarged Prostate
• Rezūm Water Vapor Therapy—Natural energy stored in water vapor, or steam, removes excess prostate tissue that is pressing on the urethra.
• HoLEP—Laser treatment to reduce moderate to larger sized prostates.
• UroLift System—Lifts & holds enlarged prostate tissue, so it no longer blocks the urethra.
Pelvic Floor Therapy
This specialized physical therapy program can alleviate issues such as pelvic pain; urinary frequency, urgency, hesitancy, and leakage; digestive/bowel irregularities; and sexual disfunctions. A board-certified therapist develops personalized treatment plans for men, women, and children (age 5+) that include exercise, education, and behavior modification. The service is provided by the Horizon Health Rehabilitation Services Department.
Common Conditions
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)
Noncancerous enlargement of the prostate gland, more common as men age.
Can block the flow of urine, causing bladder, urinary tract, or kidney problems.
Urinary Incontinence
Loss of bladder control commonly seen in older adults and women who have
given birth or gone through menopause.
Overactive Bladder
Frequent and sudden urge to urinate. May be difficult to control and lead
to incontinence. Occurs mostly in women but may affect men.
