The symptoms of a weak pelvic floor include leaking urine when coughing, sneezing, laughing or running or failing to reach the toilet in time. Pelvic floor weakness can cause stress incontinence and vaginal atrophy. The technology of the EmpowerRF platform can be used to help alleviate these symptoms.
At Umi Clinic in Petersfield, near Godalming and Guildford in Surrey and Havant in Hampshire, we see excellent results for stress or urge incontinence and improvement in the pelvic floor following treatment with VTone, which is part of the EmpowerRF platform.

How does VTone from EmpowerRF help the pelvic floor?
Pregnancy, childbirth, general ageing, hormonal changes and the menopause, can all effect the pelvic floor, potentially resulting in muscle weakness and varying degrees of urinary incontinence. VTone offers a non-surgical solution. It delivers intravaginal electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) and neuromuscular re-education to help rehabilitate weakened pelvic floor muscles and address urinary incontinence.
The VTone device is a gentle treatment that features a two-sided tip that is designed for comfortable insertion into the vagina. This tip delivers electrical stimulation to the pelvic floor muscles, helping to strengthen them. With VTone, many patients can achieve improved pelvic health and reduce the symptoms of urinary incontinence, and thus improve their quality of life.
At Umi Clinic, the overall aim of our team, is to help restore women’s confidence. If you are concerned about your pelvic floor and are suffering from leaking urine, make an appointment with our in-house clinician today and find out how we can help you.
How does Tone from EmpowerRF strengthen muscle?
Tone is a non-invasive muscle strengthening technology that works by emitting low frequency pulses that deliver electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) to induce muscle contractions. Tone targets specific muscle groups to restore abdominal strength and thus has body sculpting capabilities, without surgery or downtime. Multiple body areas can be treated simultaneously, and treatments are customised to address your specific needs.
PELVIC FLOOR FAQS
VTone is a devise from the EmpowerRF platform by InMode. The treatment is an effective and non-invasive treatment that helps to tone and train muscles of the pelvic floor. During a VTone treatment a two-sided tip is inserted into the vaginal to trigger involuntary muscle contractions. These contractions tone and tighten the pelvic floor muscles, targeting the muscle fibres that have become weakened or overstretched during pregnancy and childbirth or due to hormonal changes.
VTone offers revolutionary technology that has been life changing for many women. VTone is recommended for any woman who wishes to strengthen their pelvic floor muscles. Each person will react differently to the treatment and the extent of benefits will differ from person to person.
