Research & Evidence

​

At Pelvic Zone, we believe in transparency, evidence-based progress, and informed choice.
 

This section is designed as a place of discovery — a living collection of independent, peer-reviewed research and emerging insights exploring how repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation (rPMS) and related technologies are shaping the future of pelvic health and human recovery.

​

Our goal is to bridge science and real-world experience — helping our clients, clinicians, and the wider community understand how advanced magnetic therapy is being studied, refined, and validated across clinical settings.


The evidence so far is promising: magnetic neuromodulation has been shown to trigger deep pelvic floor muscle contractions, improve continence, and enhance quality of life in diverse populations.


But more than that, this research represents something larger — the evolution of technology-assisted healing and the growing belief that science and innovation can restore what traditional methods often cannot.

​

The information shared here is offered for educational purposes only. It should not be considered medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and is not intended to replace consultation with a qualified healthcare professional.


Pelvic Zone does not claim to cure or prevent any condition, and individual results will vary.

​

We highlight peer-reviewed studies (such as Silantyeva et al., 2020 and Ptaszkowski et al., 2020) alongside trusted databases including PubMed and PMC, ensuring that every reference is credible and transparent.


Our own client experiences complement this evidence — many describe stronger, deeper, and more effective muscle activations than are possible through voluntary exercise alone. Together, this growing body of evidence and lived experience is helping to build confidence in the magnetic therapy field and belief in what modern health technology can achieve.

Pelvic Zone uses non-BTL rPMS technology that operates on similar physical principles. We respectfully acknowledge BTL Industries as an important innovator within this field and commend their ongoing contributions to the advancement of magnetic therapy and pelvic health care.

The field of magnetic stimulation for pelvic health is still developing and not yet widely funded or prioritised by mainstream medical research, though interest and evidence continue to grow across the scientific community.
