Emsella®
Apply Electromagnetic Energy to Improve Confidence and Address Incontinence in Ohio
The underlying causes of so-called “stress incontinence” are weakened pelvic floor muscles. These crucial support structures can be stretched out, grow lax, and become unable to properly aid in bladder control. Strengthening these muscles to restore support can help the problem.
Who is a Good Candidate for Emsella®?
How Does Emsella® Work?
Emsella® serves as an alternative to exercise—such as “Kegels”—by applying high-frequency electromagnetic energy to the targeted muscles. This energy triggers thousands of contractions and corresponding improvement in strength and tone and amounts to doing approximately 11,200 Kegels in 28 minutes.
For the treatment itself, you remain fully clothed throughout the session. Patients sit on a throne-like seat that delivers the high-frequency electromagnetic energy up and into the pelvic floor. A single session takes about half an hour. Ideal results take six sessions, twice a week, for three weeks.
Some women have described the tingling sensation and rapid contractions as “odd,” but well-tolerable and even relaxing. Patients are encouraged to read a book or magazine while the Emsella® seat does its work.
What Happens After an Emsella® Treatment?
While some improvement may be observed after one treatment, you can expect the pelvic floor-strengthening results to continue to improve over the following weeks. Bladder control will increase, leading to fewer accidents and improved self-confidence.
