Gynatherm 700™ –
Thermotherapy for
Vaginal Disorders

New Approach for Vaginal Disorders

The Gynetherm 700™ is an innovative approach which applies heat therapy for the treatment of vaginal disorders (vaginal infections, Vaginismus and cervical lesuins).
The use of heat therapy could affect existing concepts and practices in the field.

Vaginismus is a sexual dysfunction characterized by involuntary muscle contraction when vaginal penetration is attempted. Women suffering from the disorder often find it difficult, or even impossible, to endure vaginal penetration during a gynecological examination or sexual intecourse.
While the condition, as expected, leads to pain, high stress and damaged relationships, only 15% of women suffering from vaginismus seek help. Treatment for those suffering from vaginismus has ranged from educational therapies, to hypnosis, and even surgical intervention. Unfortunately, these solutions have been proven inadequate.
Gynetherm applies heat therapy using special transvaginal probes to relax the vaginal muscles and allow for gynecological treatment and pain-free penetration.

Up to 10% of Women Suffer from Vaginismus

An Altternative for Current Practice

Until new, treatment of vaginal infections was based on the use of antibiotics. The problams associated with their use have created the need for a new approach. The Gynetherm 700™ is a promising solution as a replacement treatment or as an adjuvant for overcoming these problams by reducing the need for antibiotics when treating vaginal infections.

Simple, Safe and Effective

The system is easy to use and cost-effective. it consists of a compact control unit and a set of probes for different applications. Water is used as the heating medium for the probes and the temperature can be changed during treatment.
Existing data shows excellent results, no reported side effects, and no complaints of discomfort. In addition, the treatment can generally be performed in a single out-patient session, offering both convenience and savings to the patient.
