When the muscle between your stomach and esophagus is weak, stomach contents like acid or bile can reflux up into your esophagus causing GERD symptoms like heartburn.

Depending on the severity, currently GERD is treated by making changes to lifestyles, prescription medicines like Proton-Pump Inhibitors & H2 receptors antagonist to reduce the acid production. Surgery is an option for severe cases of GERD.

If left untreated, GERD can affect your quality of life and may also lead to esophagal cancer.

Stretta is a non-surgical, outpatient procedure that treats the underlying cause of GERD – a weak muscle between the stomach and esophagus. Stretta has been shown to:

• Significantly reduce GERD symptoms
• Eliminate or decrease medications
• Decrease acid exposure
• Improve quality of life

Stretta is a non-surgical outpatient procedure that takes 60 minutes or less. You may be provided a short duration anesthesia.

During the procedure, a Stretta device goes through the mouth to treat the muscle between the stomach and esophagus (LES), delivering radiofrequency (RF) energy to the muscle.

This treatment increases the muscle wall thickness  resulting in improved barrier function that may prevent reflux and reduce GERD symptoms.
