About Emsella
Ideal Candidates
We find that the best candidates for Emsella urinary incontinence treatments are in good overall health but have a constant or near-constant feeling of needing to urinate. In most cases, people with this sensation are experiencing weakened pelvic floor muscles. By strengthening the pelvic floor muscles, enhanced control over the bladder and bowels is achievable.
Often, the people we treat have developed weakened pelvic floor muscles after giving birth, going through menopause, or due to the natural aging process. Whatever the reason, if you are experiencing urinary incontinence, come in and talk with us about whether Emsella might be a good solution.
How the Treatment Works
The Emsella chair emits electromagnetic waves that strengthen and rejuvenate the pelvic floor muscles. These invisible waves do not affect or harm the surface layers of skin, and you will not feel them during treatment, though you may experience some tingling and pelvic floor muscle contractions.
All the treatment requires is sitting on the Emsella chair for a specified period of time (usually 30 minutes) while the electromagnetic energy targets your pelvic floor. You can catch up on emails, check in on social media, or just sit and relax while the treatment takes place.
Most of our patients see their best results with a treatment series of 6 total treatments spaced over a 3-week period. No anesthesia is needed during Emsella treatments and the treatments are completely comfortable.
Emsella Results
Because Emsella is completely nonsurgical, no downtime is required and you can carry on with your day’s activities right after leaving our office. You may start to see improvement in symptoms after your first session. The results will typically continue to improve over the next few weeks.
In clinical studies published by the manufacturer of Emsella, the treatment has achieved an average of 64% improvement in urinary incontinence after the initial treatment series is completed. Emsella does not change anything about how your abdomen or groin area looks. It only strengthens the internal musculature of your pelvic floor.
