Emsella (Pelvic Health)

BOOK APPOINTMENT

The Emsella chair is a non-invasive medical device that treats urinary incontinence and strengthens the pelvic floor using high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology.

It stimulates thousands of pelvic floor muscle contractions in a pain-free, fully clothed session, with no downtime. Suitable for both men and women, it offers an effective alternative to surgery for improving bladder control and muscle tone.

Treatment details:

  • The chair uses advanced HIFEM technology to deliver thousands of muscle contractions in a single session, enhancing bladder control and muscle tone.

    Treat areas:

    • Pelvic Floor strengthening

    • Treatment length → 30 minutes.

    • Sensation → Deep, tingling sensation, followed by intense, involuntary, yet painless pelvic floor muscle contractions.

    • Onset → The most significant, "peak" results are usually observed 4–6 weeks after completing the full, recommended series of treatments.

    • Duration → The results are designed to be long-lasting (often 6–12 months or longer).

  • You can return to your daily activities immediately after each session, as there is no downtime required.

    Common Side Effects:

    • Mild tingling or muscle twitching during treatment

    • Temporary pelvic muscle fatigue or tightness

    • Slight soreness similar to post-exercise

    Uncommon Side Effects:

    • Light abdominal cramping or bloating

    • Temporary increase in urinary urgency (resolves quickly)

    • Discomfort from muscle stimulation (usually resolves with adjustment)

    Rare Side Effects:

    • Nerve irritation or prolonged pelvic sensitivity

    • Muscle strain (very rare)

    • Discomfort due to underlying conditions (e.g., IUD, surgical implants—screening required)

  • Precision requires patience. We invite all our EmSella clients back for a 14-day Follow-Up. This allows us to assess how your muscles have responded.

  • The Emsella chair is a non-invasive medical device designed to treat urinary incontinence and improve pelvic floor muscle strength using high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology.

  • The chair generates electromagnetic waves that induce thousands of supramaximal pelvic floor muscle contractions during each session, enhancing muscle tone and bladder control.

  • No, Emsella treatments are pain-free. Patients may feel a tingling sensation and muscle contractions during the session, but it is generally comfortable.

    • A typical treatment course consists of six sessions, scheduled twice a week for three weeks.

    • However, the exact number of sessions may vary based on individual needs and the healthcare provider’s recommendation.

  • Those that are pregnant, have a pacemaker, metal plates, defibrillator or have any copper coil or IUD – the Mirena Coil is fine as it’s made of plastic. Piercings may need to be removed before treatment.

  • Emsella is generally well-tolerated with minimal side effects. Some patients may experience mild muscle soreness or a slight tingling sensation, which usually resolves quickly.

    • The duration of results varies among individuals, but many patients experience long-lasting benefits.

    • Periodic maintenance sessions may be recommended to sustain the improvements.
