MagStim Therapy for Urinary Incontinence & Overactive Bladder

MagStim™ therapy is a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment that helps people with Urinary Incontinence (UI) and Overactive Bladder (OAB) strengthen their pelvic floor muscles and get better control over their bladder.

Dr. Sanjay Gandhi delivers this evidence-based therapy as part of a full approach to pelvic floor rehabilitation at SKN Sculpt.

What is MagStim Therapy?

MagStim (Magnetic Stimulation) uses high-intensity, focused electromagnetic pulses to stimulate the pelvic floor muscles. These pulses trigger thousands of deep muscle contractions—far stronger than what patients can achieve through routine pelvic exercises alone.

Magstim Magnetic Stimulation alters neural pathways associated with pain perception, facilitating lower pain intensity, greater physical function, and enhanced quality of life for patients. This is a validated technology that enables physicians and clinicians to address pain at its origin.

This targeted neuromuscular activation helps:

  • Reinforce pelvic floor musculature
  • Augment urethral support
  • Optimize bladder functionality
  • Decrease urgency, frequency, and instances of leakage

Enhance your natural beauty with our safe and effective Botox and dermal filler treatments. Botox helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles, giving you a youthful and refreshed look, while dermal fillers restore volume and contour to your face for a more lifted and rejuvenated appearance. Our expert specialists ensure precise and natural-looking results tailored to your unique features.

How MagStim Helps in UI & OAB?

Urinary Incontinence and Overactive Bladder often occur due to weakened pelvic floor muscles, nerve dysfunction, childbirth trauma, aging, and menopause. MagStim therapy works by:

  • Re-educating and strengthening pelvic muscles
  • Improving coordination between bladder and pelvic floor
  • Enhancing neural pathways involved in continence
  • Restoring muscle tone without any discomfort or downtime

Clinical studies have shown significant improvement in patients with:

  • Stress Urinary Incontinence
  • Urge Incontinence
  • Mixed Incontinence
  • Overactive Bladder symptoms (urgency, frequency, nocturia)

A Completely Non-Invasive & Comfortable Procedure

MagStim is performed with the patient fully clothed, seated on a specialized therapeutic chair. The electromagnetic waves penetrate the pelvic floor without any internal probes or anesthesia.

  • No pain
  • No downtime
  • No side effects
  • Short sessions (20–30 minutes)
  • Safe for both women and men

Who Is an Ideal Candidate?

MagStim therapy is suitable for individuals who:

  • Experience urine leakage during coughing, laughing, or exercise
  • Have a sudden urge to urinate with little control
  • Wake multiple times at night to urinate
  • Prefer a non-surgical option
  • Are not improving with basic pelvic exercises alone

MagStim Therapy – Patient FAQs

MagStim therapy uses focused electromagnetic pulses to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles and improve bladder control. It is a completely non-invasive treatment for urinary incontinence and overactive bladder.

The electromagnetic stimulation triggers thousands of strong pelvic floor muscle contractions in each session. This helps:

  • Strengthen weak pelvic muscles
  • Improve support to the urethra
  • Reduce leakage during coughing, laughing, or exercise
  • Improve bladder control and reduce urgency

No. MagStim is a painless, comfortable procedure. You remain fully clothed and sit on a specially designed therapeutic chair. Most patients describe the sensation as a gentle tapping or vibration.

Each session takes 20 to 30 minutes. You can return to normal activities immediately afterward.

Most patients require 6–8 sessions, depending on the severity of symptoms. Dr. Sanjay Gandhi will assess your condition and customize the treatment plan.

Yes. MagStim is FDA-approved technology with a strong safety profile. It is non-invasive, drug-free, and does not require anesthesia.

Absolutely. MagStim is beneficial for both women and men, especially those with OAB, post-prostate surgery urinary issues, or weak pelvic muscles.

Side effects are rare. Some patients may experience mild muscle soreness, which usually settles within a few hours.

Many patients notice improved bladder control after 2–3 sessions, with optimal results after completing the full treatment course.

MagStim enhances pelvic muscle strength significantly, but continuing your Kegel routine may help maintain long-term results. Dr. Gandhi will guide you on the best plan.

Yes, in most cases. However, patients with recent pelvic surgery or childbirth should have a clinical evaluation before starting treatment.

MagStim is not recommended for patients with:

  • Active pelvic infection
  • Pacemakers or implanted cardiac devices
  • Metal implants in the pelvic region
  • Pregnancy

A detailed evaluation ensures your safety.

No downtime at all. You can resume your daily routine, work, or exercise immediately after the session.

MagStim produces thousands of deep contractions that are much stronger and more consistent than voluntary Kegels. It is especially effective for those who struggle to correctly engage pelvic muscles.
