Emsella chair treatment utilizes high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology that stimulates deep pelvic floor muscles and helps restore neuromuscular control. One session actually brings thousands of supramaximal pelvic floor muscle contractions, which is key to muscle re-education of incontinent patients. All of this is done without any effort on the part of the patient and without getting undressed. Emsella is a completely non-invasive procedure with no recovery time, and while there are intense tingling and contractions during the treatment, it is a very easy procedure to sit through. Following the procedure, there might be some stiffness getting up from the chair and some mild soreness, but it will most likely not interfere with your daily activities. Most patients will experience improvement after six scheduled sessions (scheduled twice a week). Each session takes about 30 minutes and one session is the equivalent of 12,000 Kegels. There is typically no pain with the treatment and no anesthetic is required.

Some patients may get worse for a short period of time before they actually see improvement, and some patients may need more treatments, depending on the severity of their condition. Results vary from person to person and there is no way an exact result can be predicted. Depending on the severity of the condition, results may typically last at least six months. For most, the internal changes may last 9-12 months. Maintenance for many patients is also recommended.

The Emsella chair works, according to patients and doctors alike. Even better, women report having increased strength of orgasms following six sessions of treatment. Women and men of any age who are afflicted with levels 0 and 1 stress urinary incontinence are ideal candidates for this treatment. The treatment improves pelvic tone and helps men and women reduce their amount of leaking. Candidates for this treatment also include men who have had prostate cancer. Emsella utilizes electromagnetic energy to deliver literally thousands of supramaximal pelvic floor muscle contractions in one single session, and these contractions re-educate the muscles of incontinent patients. To date, five clinical studies have been published on this technology, which confirms that 95% of patients report an improved quality of life. Tired of that “I got to go feeling?” Emsella may be just right for you so talk to your healthcare provider today.

The treatment does not improve bladder or uterine prolapse. Those considering the treatment should consult with their doctor first to see if they are a candidate. A doctor may also outline the benefits of this treatment and other treatment options available.
