Personalized Axonics Treatment Options Near You
At our Denver location, we specialize in using Axonics Therapy to improve the lives of those dealing with overactive bladder, urinary incontinence, fecal incontinence, and urinary retention. Axonics is a minimally invasive treatment that involves a small incision and the placement of a neurostimulator, helping patients regain control over muscles responsible for urine and bowel movements. For many, it’s a long-awaited answer to managing symptoms caused by stress, constipation, childbirth, or other causes that affect pelvic function.
What is Axonics Therapy
Axonics Therapy features a small, minimally invasive implant designed to provide long-term relief by stimulating the nerves controlling the bladder and bowel. This stimulation helps restore normal communication between the nerves and the brain, which helps restore continence and resolve urinary and bowel problems. Axonic Therapy has successfully treated urinary incontinence, fecal incontinence, urinary frequency, and urinary retention for many patients.
What are the Benefits of Axonics Therapy?
Axonic Therapy has multiple benefits, including:
- Restoring normal communication. Axonics Therapy uses a miniature implant to gently stimulate the nerves that control the bladder and bowel. This can help restore normal communication between the brain and the bladder and bowel.
- Providing long-term relief. Axonics Therapy can provide a long-term solution to bladder and bowel issues, as its beneficial effects last up to 3 years or longer.
- Improving quality of life. Patients often say that Axonics Therapy allows them to live their lives more normally, without worrying about where the bathroom is.
Overall, Axonics Therapy provides many advantages.
What Are The Steps of Axonics Therapy?
To see if Axonic Therapy is right for you, you will be given a small disposable device to test out temporarily. This evaluation helps you experience the relief that Axonic Therapy can provide before you decide to move forward with long-term therapy.
If you and your doctor determine that Axonic Therapy is right for you, you will be scheduled for a minimally invasive, outpatient procedure where the small Axonic implant will be placed just beneath the skin in the upper part of your buttock. After your procedure, we will monitor your progress and reduction of symptoms.

Who Should Consider Axonics Therapy?
Axonic Therapy is known to help individuals who have failed to see improvement with conservative treatments (lifestyle changes, physical therapy, or medications) for the following conditions:
- Overactive Bladder (OAB) – a strong, urgent need to urinate that can cause frequent trips to the bathroom or leakage
- Urinary Frequency – needing to urinate 8 or more times a day, with or without urgency
- Urinary Urgency Incontinence (UUI) – a sudden urge to urinate or trouble holding it until you reach the bathroom
- Fecal Incontinence – involuntary loss of stool, which may or may not come with urgency
- Nonobstructive Urinary Retention (UR) – trouble fully emptying the bladder, which can lead to frequent, small urinations.
To determine if Axonic Therapy is right for you, it’s best to visit experienced bladder and bowel specialists, like Incontinence Centers of America.
