Male sexual health was the topic of a talk at Parow Library on Thursday (13 November).

It formed part of the annual Movember campaign, which raises awareness of men’s health issues, including prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental health and suicide prevention.

Matt Viuff, founder of the Shockwave Clinic in Lower Main Road, Observatory, spoke on the work of his wellness centre, which specialises in non-invasive therapies for men’s sexual health and vitality, according to its website.

Addressing an audience of mainly men, he said the clinic deals with male sexual health without the use of medication and the treatment it provides is centred on patient involvement.

Viuff also mentioned erectile dysfunction (ED), the signs men can look out for, what could possibly trigger it as well as the treatments on offer.

“When morning and evening erections stop that is the sign,” he pointed out.

He explained there are various ways in which ED can be treated, and that Shockwave offers one-on-one treatment.

“The trick is to be patient, and this applies to older guys especially.”

He also warned that men should be careful for clinical trials as this could also have a negative effect.

Viuff said he advised men to adjust their lifestyles as they got older; to consume less alcohol, fast food and cigarettes, which are not good for the body. He also spoke about the effect of fillers, testosterone injections, and stress and anxiety on male sexual health.
