The ability to inflate fits the contacts snug against the pelvic floor creating a comfortable contraction, strengthening your pelvic floor muscles for you. We took that same technology and improved it by making our probe inflatable. Muscle stimulation and bio feedback have been used by pelvic floor physical therapists for over 30 years semi-successfully. Sherrie Palm~Can you describe exactly how ApexM helps address pelvic floor weakness in women? Our products are assembled by women, for women.

I also think it’s important to mention that all our products are manufactured in Brookfield, WI in an ISO rated, FDA cleared manufacturing facility. We shouldn’t forget this very important area (pelvic floor) that makes us women. Your pelvic floor is a muscle group that needs to be taken care of, along with exercising, eating right, and being mindful about our health. As women, we typically think of pelvic floor issues as part of aging and that doesn’t have to be. ICM’s intent is to increase awareness that there is an effective product to address female bladder leakage which can be used in the comfort of your home, comes with a guarantee, and can be effective to prevent pelvic floor concerns from occurring. ICM’s vision is to make pelvic floor disorders a thing of the past. Buzz founded InControl Medical in 2010 after much research, exploration, patents and approvals, ICM’s products were born. It all started when Buzz Peddicord, the founder/inventor of the product, had a conversation with his mother who asked him to solve the problem of her bladder leakage because of his experience in medical device development. All our products were developed based on clinician and consumer feedback of what is needed.

ICM has 5 products to help ranging from prescription only devices to FDA cleared over the counter devices (ApexM) for the treatment of female urinary incontinence. Weak pelvic floor muscles can lead to symptoms such as: bladder leakage, migration of the internal organs to the vaginal canal, bowel leakage, poor sensation during vaginal intercourse and prolonged postpartum recovery. InControl Medical (ICM) is a company focusing on pelvic floor health.

Also please share a little history of the device, the developer, the vision.

Sherrie Palm~Amy, please explain for our following the vision behind InControl and how ApexM came to be a medical device for women’s pelvic health. I would like to share some information captured during my meeting with Amy Bomberg, VP of Sales Development, a refreshingly outspoken women’s pelvic health advocate. APOPS continually explores all treatment options to better inform our following.Ī trip to InControl Medical (ICM) was of considerable value to better understand the pelvic floor strengthening devices this forward thinking company provides. Every woman’s needs are unique some women want surgery, some prefer non-surgical treatments. As pelvic organ prolapse awareness increases and women recognize symptoms and request screening from their clinicians, the value of treatment variety will magnify. Interviews with Key Opinion Leaders within healthcare and industry provide valuable insights into multiple aspects of the POP dynamic.
