Abstract
The invention relates to a method for treatment of erectile dysfunction using a combination of heat and negative pressure.
Claims13
A method for treating erectile dysfunction comprising:
- applying negative pressure to penile tissue while heating said penile tissue with thermal energy, wherein a combination of said negative pressure and said thermal energy improves blood flow in said penile tissue to treat erectile dysfunction of said penile tissue, wherein said negative pressure is below ambient pressure and said penile tissue is heated to a heated temperature above body temperature.
A method for treating erectile dysfunction comprising:
- applying alternating negative and positive pressure to a penile tissue while heating said penile tissue with thermal energy, wherein a combination of said alternating negative and positive pressure and said thermal energy improves blood flow in said penile tissue to treat erectile dysfunction of said penile tissue, wherein said negative pressure is below ambient pressure and said positive pressure is above ambient pressure and said penile tissue is heated to a temperature above normal body temperature.
A method for treating erectile dysfunction comprising:
- stretching penile tissue while heating said penile tissue with thermal energy, wherein a combination of said stretching and said thermal energy improves blood flow in said penile tissue to treat erectile dysfunction of said penile tissue, wherein said stretching opens compressed blood vessels and said penile tissue is heated to a heated temperature above normal body temperature.
