Emsella for Incontinence: What to Expect
Emsella is a non-invasive treatment that strengthens the pelvic floor to reduce urinary incontinence. You stay fully clothed, sessions take about 28 minutes, and many people see results within a few weeks.
Bladder leaks are incredibly common, and far too rarely talked about. If you’ve been living with the constant worry of a leak, there’s a comfortable, non-invasive option worth knowing about.
What Emsella is
Emsella is a chair that uses High-Intensity Electromagnetic Energy to stimulate and strengthen the pelvic-floor muscles, the muscles that support bladder control. It does in one session what would take thousands of pelvic-floor exercises. The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases explains how strengthening the pelvic floor improves bladder control.
What a session feels like
You sit, fully clothed, on the Emsella chair for about 28 minutes. Most people describe a mild tingling and the sensation of the muscles contracting. There’s no downtime, so you can return to your day right away.
What it can help
- Urinary incontinence (stress and urge)
- Overactive bladder
- Pelvic-floor weakness, for both men and women
Who it’s for
Healthy adults dealing with incontinence or pelvic-floor weakness are typically good candidates. It isn’t suitable for everyone, for example, those who are pregnant or have certain metal implants, so a quick consultation confirms fit. MedlinePlus offers a good overview of incontinence types and treatment paths. The Urology Care Foundation has helpful background on incontinence and treatment options.
