What is Emsella?

Emsella is a noninvasive treatment that improves sexual function and reduces urinary incontinence using innovative electromagnetic energy. This energy stimulates pelvic floor muscle contractions, strengthening the muscles responsible for holding in urine. Such contractions re-educate the affected muscles in people struggling with urinary incontinence.

What are the benefits of Emsella?

Emsella strengthens the pelvic floor muscles, making it easier to control urine leaks and maximize sexual functioning. The treatment is comfortable and highly effective, allowing you to avoid more invasive treatments. It helps restore your quality of life. 

About 95% of people who have undergone this treatment report a better quality of life, and 75% report a reduced need for urine pads. 

 

Am I a candidate for Emsella for incontinence?

If you suffer from frequent or embarrassing involuntary urine leaks (urinary incontinence), you may be a candidate for Emsella treatment. Several types of incontinence exist, including:

  • Urge incontinence: sudden, intense urges to urinate
  • Stress incontinence: urine leaks when coughing, exercising, laughing, or sneezing
  • Mixed incontinence: combinations of urge and stress incontinence 

Your symptoms may be mild and cause minor urine leaks or create noticeable wetness that soaks through your pants. It may prevent you from participating in social events or enjoying many of your favorite activities.

Numerous factors can contribute to incontinence, including weak pelvic floor muscles, vaginal delivery, aging, or menopause.

If you struggle with poor sexual function or sensation, Emsella could help.

About 95% of people who have undergone this treatment report a better quality of life, and 75% report a reduced need for urine pads. 

What should I expect during Emsella treatment?

Your Bethany Women’s Healthcare provider personalizes a treatment plan that’s best for you. Emsella treatment sessions typically last about 30 minutes. You simply sit on the Emsella chair-like device while electromagnetic energy penetrates targeted tissues. 

During treatment, you may experience pelvic floor muscle contractions and tingling, but these sensations aren’t painful. You can resume typical daily activities immediately after treatment since there’s no downtime needed. For the best results, your specialist may recommend you complete six treatment sessions scheduled twice weekly. 

Over time, you should notice improvements in sexual function and decreases in urine leaks or other urinary incontinence symptoms.
