Electrical Stimulation and Analgesia for Endometriosis Pain in Lehi, Utah
Electroanalgesia is an FDA-cleared pain relief method that stimulates the nerves with high-pulse electrical currents, which differs from standard TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) therapy, which uses low-pulse currents for short-term pain relief.
Our electroanalgesia therapy effectively manages pain associated with endometriosis and other chronic pelvic conditions by blocking pain signals from reaching the brain and helping the body release endorphins that naturally reduce pain. Electroanalgesia is particularly effective in treating endometriosis-related pain because it reduces inflammation and tension in the pelvic area.
Although it’s been proven effective for decades, electroanalgesia is not commonly used because it doesn’t provide the same quick short-term results as pain medications and surgery. Instead, it provides a long-term approach to managing the pain and helping the body heal itself. Results last longer the more treatments are received, thereby contributing to an improved quality of life.
We recommend that patients with Endometriosis pain receive two treatments of electroanalgesia per week for 12 weeks for the best results.
IV Therapy for Endometriosis Pain in Lehi, Utah
IV therapy is a treatment in which fluids that include vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are injected directly into the bloodstream through an intravenous drip. This treatment is beneficial for endometriosis-related pain because IV therapy helps to improve circulation and reduce inflammation, which in turn can help to reduce symptoms like pelvic pain and fatigue. IV therapy also helps hydrate the body, which can help reduce cramping by loosening the muscles.
We tailor our IV therapy treatment to the needs of each patient. We do this by evaluating their bloodwork to determine which vitamins and minerals are needed to administer a personalized IV solution that helps reduce pain and inflammation.
