The cause of chronic prostatitis and prostate enlargement is a change in the vascular level and requires similar treatment: innovative Thermobalancing therapy

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: The outcomes of clinical studies show Thermobalancing therapy (TT) with Dr Allen’s Therapeutic Device (DATD) successfully helps men treat chronic prostatitis / chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The purpose of this study is to compare the ratio of the causes of these diseases with their treatment.
 METHODS: Two clinical trials observed dynamics of urinary symptoms, pain score and prostate volume in men with BPH and CP/CPPS after using the device for six months. There were 124 men with BPH and 45 men with chronic prostatitis investigated in the treatment groups and the same number of men were in the control groups.
 RESULTS: These studies have shown that TT with DATD reduced prostate volume from 45 mL to 31 mL (P<0.001) and, consequently, urinary symptoms from 14.2 to 4.9 (P<0.001) in the treatment group of 124 patients with BPH. Pain score was reduced from 10.3 to 3.5 (P<0.001) and prostate volume decreased from 31 mL to 27 mL (P<0.001) in the treatment group of 45 men with CP/CPPS. In the control groups of 124 men with BPH and 45 men with CP/CPPS no difference in the symptoms and parameters was observed.
 CONCLUSION: The clinical studies indicated that the cause of these chronic diseases lies at the vascular level, namely the pathological activity of capillaries. The focus of hypothermia in combination with the spontaneous expansion of capillaries creates pressure in the tissue of the prostate gland, causing inflammation in it as well as symptoms in men with CP/CPPS and prostate growth in men with BPH. TT with DATD proved to be effective in treating LUTS related to BPH and CP/CPPS. Therefore, the same therapy can be used for the treatment of both chronic prostatic diseases: BPH and CP/CPPS.
