Pulse Wave Therapy for E.D. ?

[cityboy-stl]

It seems like I'm seeing commercials on TV about every half hour for a couple of E.D. clinics that have opened here recently. They're advertising some kind of new non-invasive, non-drug, therapy for E.D. they call wave therapy or pulse therapy; something like that. Does anyone have these clinics showing up in their areas of the country? I'm asking more out of curiosity, rather than need, because of the barrage of advertising everywhere. The whole tone of it just feels to me like an expensive scam. It's like they hook you into these "treatments" that cost a lot of money over a long period of time. I'll bet you also have to keep going to costly "maintenance treatments" forever. Then they end up not really working at all.

So I was wondering if that is a correct assessment, or maybe it does work? Has anyone tried this "therapy"? What were the results?

I have seen similar TV commercials. I haven't paid much attention to them and, no, I haven't tried them nor heard anything about them.

Just looked it up. Sounds like it is still in the research analytic phase.



With that said it sounds like the same idea behind the TMS therapy I went thru, which worked.

I'm all for new therapies that have multiple studies supporting their benefit.

The only thing that bothers me about the commercials for "wave therapy" is that it seems to be a one-size-fits-all solution to a problem that can have many causes.

There's not a single cause of erectile dysfunction. If I hear someone promoting a therapy instead of promoting a program to figure out what is causing the problem, I tend to be a little suspicious.

Buyer beware . . . . There's a lot of "get-rich-quick" gimmics out there and you won't be the one getting rich, quick.
