What is Axonics Therapy?
Axonics Therapy is a clinically proven solution for treating symptoms of overactive bladder (including urinary urgency incontinence), bowel (fecal) incontinence, and urinary retention.

​

How It Works
Overactive bladder, fecal incontinence or urinary retention symptoms may be caused by abnormal communication between the brain and the bladder and bowel.
1
As your bladder and bowel fills, nerve signals are sent to your brain to alert you.
2
The brain sends nerve signals down to empty your bladder and bowel.
3
Axonics Therapy uses a miniature implant to provide gentle stimulation to the nerves that control the bladder and bowel. This can help restore normal communication between the brain and the bladder and bowel, which can results in an improvement of your symptoms.

Am I a Candidate for Axonics?
It is up to you and your healthcare provider to determine if you are a good candidate for Axonics Therapy which is an approved treatment for patients suffering from:
​
-
Overactive bladder (OAB) - the urgent need to urinate which may result in frequent urination and/or incontinence (leakage) episodes
-
Urinary frequency - the need to urinate 8 or more times a day, which may or may not be associated with urgency
-
Fecal (bowel) incontinence – involuntary loss of stool which may or may not be associated with urgency
-
Non-obstructive urinary retention (UR) – the inability to empty the bladder which may result in trouble urinating or frequent small voids
Axonics Therapy is also indicated for patients who have failed conservative treatments, such as lifestyle changes, physical therapy, or medications.
