Emsella

Losing bladder or core control after childbirth or with age isn't something you have to accept. Reclaim control with Emsella, FDA-cleared to strengthen your pelvic floor.

How it works

Emsella uses HIFEM® technology to trigger thousands of kegel-like pelvic floor contractions in a single session, with no surgery and no downtime.

Those contractions re-educate and strengthen weak pelvic floor muscles, restoring bladder control and easing urinary incontinence in both women and men.

  • Noninvasive, no downtime
  • Quick procedure
  • Proactive & corrective procedure
  • Patients remain fully clothed

  • 68%improvement in urinary incontinence symptoms at 6 months
  • 3Xmore effective than electrical muscle stimulation
  • 87%of patients reported a reduction in pad use

In the study, 75 women had six 28-minute sessions, two a week, and reported no pain, downtime or adverse events.

Good to know

What does a session feel like?

You sit on what looks like a padded chair and feel tingling, then strong squeezes deep in the pelvic floor, like thousands of Kegels in a row. It takes about 28 minutes.

Do I need to undress?

No. You stay dressed the whole time, and there's nothing to recover from afterward.

Is it for men too?

Yes. Emsella is FDA-cleared to treat urinary incontinence in women and men.

How many sessions will I need to start seeing results?

Everyone is different, but we recommend six sessions, twice a week for three weeks. That's the schedule used in the clinical study.

Who shouldn't have it?

It isn't for you during pregnancy, or if you have a pacemaker, metal implants in the hips or pelvis, or a copper IUD. We'll check your history first.
