GAINSWave® Treatment In Gastonia, NC

Few things are guaranteed in life, but there is one thing that you can count on for sure: as time goes on, your body is going to age. While most men in their late teens through their twenties might feel invincible, it's only a matter of time before age starts to play a role in everyday life. Injuries take longer to recover from, hangovers take longer to dissipate, aches and pains become a normal part of life, and intimate time with your partner can be compromised. If you have experienced any of the symptoms above, don't worry - it's completely normal to slow down as you get older.

The question is, what are you going to do about the aging process? For years, men were told to just "live with it". The time to fight back is here, and there has never been a better opportunity to live your best life than now. Nobody understands the effects that aging can have on men but our team of professionals at Better Life do. That is why we invest all of our time developing innovative, effective men's health solutions: to give men a chance to change their future and live like they did while they were in their prime. If you're ready to take a stand against ED and live a more energetic, youthful life, know that you're not alone. At Better Life Carolinas, we are here to help by providing the most scientifically advanced treatments on the market today.

At Better Life Carolinas, we have heard just about every story you can imagine regarding erectile dysfunction or ED. So if you're embarrassed and angry about your performance in the bedroom, we understand how you're feeling. In the past, men had to take strange drugs or sign off on expensive surgeries to help correct their ED, adding to their feelings of shame and hopelessness.

The good news? If you're a man dealing with ED, you don't have to settle for antiquated treatments like those referenced above. There's a new product on the block: a revolutionary, non-invasive treatment that is the first of it's kind. It's called GAINSWave®, and you can bet your bottom dollar that it isn't like anything else you have tried before.

Unlike most ED treatments, this unique approach does not require drugs or surgery.

To put it simply, GAINSWave® increases blood flow and gives you a chance to reclaim your libido and live life like a man in his prime.

GAINSWave® isn't a sketchy, quick-fix pill found behind the glass at a gas station. It is a comprehensive erectile dysfunction treatment with an incredible 76% success rate.

How GAINSWave® Works

It might sound like GAINSWave® is too good to be true, but the fact is this kind of erectile dysfunction treatment in Gastonia, NC uses scientifically-backed, time-tested technologies and applications to improve male sexual performance. Technically referred to as Low-Intensity Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (LI-ESWT), our GAINSWave® procedure goes right to the crux of the issue. Low-intensity sound waves break up plaque formation in your penis while stimulating new blood vessel growth. These new blood vessels help get more blood to your penis, ultimately improving your ability to perform. This incredible treatment not only increases blood flow - it also causes new nerve tissues to grow, making your penis more sensitive and easily stimulated.

It all happens through a process called neurogenesis, which increases penis sensitivity. What sets GAINSWave® apart from others is the use of low-intensity sound waves to achieve increased blood flow and sensitivity. Because this procedure is completely non-invasive, you won't ever have to worry about expensive insurance claims or unsightly scarring. All you have to worry about is enjoying life like you used to, without having to undergo surgery or putting harmful substances in your body.

Here are some quick facts about Better Life Carolinas GAINSWave® treatments:

  • For most men, you can expect to have between 6 and 12 GAINSWave® sessions
  • Sessions typically take 15 to 20 minutes.
  • GAINSWave® works by releasing growth factors in your penis tissue, which generates new blood vessels.
  • GAINSWave® promotes healthy blood flow by breaking up plaque formation, giving men harder, stronger erections for longer periods of time.
  • GAINSWave® also activates dormant stem cells, which leads to new cell growth in men.

Hidden Risks of Prescription Erectile Dysfunction Treatment

If you have ever wondered why GAINSWave® treatments are so popular with men, the answer is simple. Prescription drugs meant to help ED often come with side effects that can diminish your peace of mind and day-to-day life. While some men swear by the "little blue pill," many guys aren't aware of the hidden risks associated with drugs like Viagra. The following ailments can happen both in the short term and long term

If you are having problems with erectile dysfunction, you should understand why it's happening. The primary cause of ED is associated with a lack of blood flow to the penis, making erections difficult to get and maintain. Rather than relying on a prescription pill for a quick fix, many men are using GAINSWave® treatment in Gastonia, NC for a natural solution with no ill side effects. ED doesn't have to be your "new normal," and neither does suffering from strange side effects from popping too many "little blue pills."

GAINSWave®, COVID-19, and ED

The global COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound effect on the world. Over the last year, millions of Americans have had to change their lifestyles and alter daily routines to better protect themselves and their loved ones from the virus. While COVID-19 causes a litany of negative side effects, new research shows that men who contract the virus can triple their risk of developing erectile dysfunction. Because the human body is unfamiliar with this kind of virus, it responds by sending a large immune response. During this process, the body uses massive amounts of chemicals to eliminate the virus, causing horrible collateral damage in the form of cell destruction and inflammation.

Contracting COVID-19 and suffering from ED at the same time might sound like a death sentence. However, if you are a man experiencing ED during or after contracting the COVID-19 virus, don't lose hope.

Clinical trials have shown that shockwave therapy, better known as GAINSWave®, has been shown to lower inflammation and boost vascularity by creating angiogenesis and improving endothelial function. Simply put, GAINSWave® treatments can help reverse symptoms of ED brought on by COVID-19. To learn more about how GAINSWave® can help you get back to a normal sex life after developing COVID-19, we recommend contacting our office today.

GAINSWave® A Natural, Non-Invasive Treatment for Peyronie's Disease

Though Peyronie's Disease affects about 9% of men, it is a little-known disease that can cause physical and aesthetic issues. It is characterized by fibrous scar tissue, which forms underneath the surface of a man's penis. When this disease is left untreated or treated improperly, it can be very difficult for men to have a normal erection. This is because Peyronie's Disease can cause painful curvatures in the penis, making it nearly impossible for afflicted men to have sexual intercourse at all.

The cause of Peyronie's Disease is currently unknown. However, most cases stem from physical trauma like acute injuries after vigorous sex. Other causes include prostate surgery, autoimmune disorders, and family history. Unfortunately, traditional treatment options range from a "wait and see" approach to prescription drugs and even surgery.

P-Shot® Erectile Dysfunction Treatment in Gastonia, NC

Most guys will tell you that their penis is the most important part of their body. While that is not totally true from a physiological perspective, we get where they're coming from - after all, a man's penis plays a big role in his personal life and overall wellbeing. When a man has problems achieving and maintaining an erection, his quality of life can suffer dramatically, resulting in lower self-esteem and even depression. If you are a man and suffering from ED or Peyronie's Disease, you can rest easy knowing help is only a phone call away.

In addition to GAINSWave® treatments, Better Life Carolinas also offers the Priapus Shot or P-Shot® for short. Originally used to treat wounds and sports injuries, our P-Shot® is an all-natural treatment that fortifies your body through cellular repair and rejuvenation. P-Shot® treatments have shown very promising results for men who have suffered from prostate cancer, enlarged prostates, the side effects of surgery, drug side effects from prescription pain killers, and even diabetes.

Benefits of Better Life Carolinas' P-Shot® include:

  • Increased blood flow to the penis
  • Improved stamina during sexual activities
  • Improvement and possible resolution of penile curvature issues caused by Peyronie's Disease
  • Increased penis sensitivity
  • Improvements to penis girth and length

You might be asking yourself, "How does the P-Shot® work?"

This ED solution works by using platelet-rich plasma or PRP from your own body. The proteins and growth factors released by the large number of platelets activate your stem cells, which begins cellular regeneration and repair wherever the PRP are used in your body. Tissue repair in your penis is further aided by the formation of new blood vessels and collagen production.

In many cases, men who use the P-Shot® to correct erectile dysfunction or the effects of Peyronie's Disease can resume sexual activity a few hours after the treatment is applied.

GASTONIA, N.C. — The Salvation Army of Gaston and Lincoln Counties has offered temporary housing to families in Gastonia for years.

With the doors of their emergency shelter now shut, they hope what's next will allow the organization to continue to make an impact.

John Mills has worked with the organization for six years. He now leads social services and knows first-hand what it was like when the voices of those in need filled the halls.

"When they come here and they transition well, you feel that you’ve helped somebody in a very important way," Mills said.

That was before the shelter closed in August due to costs. Mills said its roughly 30 residents have since transitioned into alternate housing.

"[The Department of Social Services] really became involved as far as through their ERAP program, emergency rental assistance program -- 95% were able to get ERAP funding and they transitioned to permanent housing," Mills said. "The 5% or the 10%, they moved on to other housing options or reunification with their families.”

While the facility still offers food, case management, and limited financial support, Mills worries about what will happen when others find themselves without a home.

“There is no other shelter here," Mills said. "The closest one at this point would be Hesed House in Lincolnton. That’s a good run, so you always worry.”

For now, he says their focus remains on doing the most good. They're preparing to invite families back for a holiday meal on Wednesday from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. ahead of Thanksgiving.

“We don’t really have the funds at this point to really be as impactful as we want to," Mills said, "but that should happen relatively soon, within the next couple of months, and that way we’ll be able to help.”

The Salvation Army does plan to close the current Center of Hope building on Broad Street and downsize in the months ahead, Mills said. They hope to be able to offer more financial support and education on financial literacy to those in need in the future.

In the meantime, the city says its planning to open a warming center soon to help families as temperatures drop.

Church in Gastonia new home for Cold Weather Shelter

People who need a place to stay warm for the night when temperatures fall will be able to visit the First United Methodist Church.

GASTONIA, N.C. — Neighbors in Gastonia who need a place to stay warm on cold nights will have a new location to visit starting Friday.

The City of Gastonia and Gaston County jointly announced Thursday that the First United Methodist Church of Gastonia has committed to hosting the Cold Weather Shelter to give unhoused neighbors a warm place to sleep when temperatures are projected to fall to 32 degrees or lower. The church, located at 190 East Franklin Boulevard, will host the shelter for the first time on Dec. 20, starting at 8 p.m. and going until 6 a.m. The shelter will be housed inside the church's Family Life Center.

“We are immensely grateful for Pastors Justin and Melissa Lowe and the entire team at First United Methodist Church of Gastonia for stepping up to provide this critical need,” Gaston County Assistant County Manager Steve Eaton said. “They truly have a heart for service, and their partnership is the perfect example of how local government and members of our community can work together to better serve those in need.”

“Our collaboration with FUMC Gastonia and Gaston County demonstrates what can be accomplished when our community comes together to support our most vulnerable,” said Quentin McPhatter, assistant city manager of Gastonia. “We remain dedicated to working hand-in-hand with our various community partners in meeting this need.”

The church will provide cots and blankets for the shelter. Community groups like Gateway Gaston, HealthNet Gaston and the United Way of Gaston County are still working to provide food, clothing and other essentials for unhoused neighbors. Law enforcement officers are also being provided to handle security at the warming shelter. Both the city and county governments are also working to provide and recruit volunteers to staff the shelter.

The city and county previously hosted a warming station at the Gastonia Farmer's Market, and warming stations have been provided for three years now.

Individuals and groups looking to donate to support the work of the Cold Weather Shelter can do so through the United Way of Gaston County.

Party City closing all stores, including in Gastonia

After a turbulent several years, Party City is reportedly planning to shutter all stores, including the store in Franklin Square Shopping Center in Gastonia.

According to reports from CNN, Party City's CEO Barry Litwin told corporate employees in a Friday meeting that the company is "winding down" operations immediately, and that today would be their last day of employment.

This left staff without severance pay, and with benefits ending as soon as the company goes out of business. Here's what to know about the company's bankruptcy, plus closures in North and South Carolina.

Why is Party City closing?

After initially filing in January 2023, the company exited bankruptcy a month after new CEO Barry Litwin's arrival, now about four months ago, CNN reported. The company was able to cancel nearly $1 billion in debt by declaring bankruptcy. It also managed to keep most of its over 800 stores open, though over 80 locations were closed between the end of 2022 and August 2024, according to recent financial documents.

Even with that debt canceled, the chain still faced $800 million in debt, straining earnings for the year. Combined with competition from online retailers such as Amazon, and seasonal pop-ups like Spirit Halloween, the company was unable to overcome their financial problems, CNN reported.
