NON-INVASIVE pelvic floor strengthening and incontinence treatment
Strengthen Your Pelvic Floor: How Emsella Restores Bladder Control Fast
Revolutionary chair-based HIFEM technology
Emsella is a revolutionary chair-based treatment that uses High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to stimulate deep pelvic floor muscle contractions. Unlike traditional Kegel exercises that rely on voluntary muscle control, Emsella induces supramaximal contractions—muscle activations of greater intensity than what you can achieve on your own.
The device consists of a power generator connected to a treatment chair containing a circular electromagnetic coil. When seated, the focused magnetic field penetrates the pelvic region, causing the pelvic floor muscles to contract and relax thousands of times during each session.
This intensive workout rehabilitates weak pelvic muscles and restores neuromuscular control, addressing the root cause of urinary incontinence rather than just managing symptoms.
Clinical research demonstrates that HIFEM technology produces significantly greater improvement in muscle strength compared to electrical stimulation. Studies show increases in maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) and endurance parameters ranging from 48-59% after HIFEM treatments, compared to only 7% improvement with electrical stimulation.
The Science Behind the Results
Emsella leverages advanced electromagnetic principles to achieve therapeutic outcomes impossible through voluntary exercise:
Supramaximal Contractions - Muscle contractions that exceed what is achievable through voluntary effort. Emsella induces contractions at intensities that recruit 100% of muscle fibers simultaneously, compared to the 40-60% typically activated during voluntary Kegel exercises.
Neuromuscular Re-education - The repeated high-intensity contractions retrain the neural pathways controlling pelvic floor function. This restoration of neuromuscular control improves both the strength and coordination of pelvic floor muscle activation.
Muscle Hypertrophy - The intensive stimulation triggers muscle adaptation and growth. MRI studies demonstrate an average 25% increase in pelvic floor muscle mass following Emsella treatment, providing lasting structural improvements to pelvic support.
Deep Tissue Penetration - The electromagnetic field reaches depths of up to 10 cm, activating deep pelvic floor muscles that are difficult or impossible to engage through surface-level exercises or electrical stimulation devices.
Why Choose Emsella
- 01
Non-Invasive — No Surgery
Strengthen your pelvic floor without incisions, anesthesia, or discomfort. This advanced technology uses electromagnetic energy to stimulate muscles while you remain comfortably seated.
- 02
Fully Clothed — Convenient
There’s no need to undress or prepare for a medical procedure. Simply sit in the treatment chair in your everyday clothes and let the technology do the work for you.
- 03
Zero Downtime — Immediate
Unlike surgical alternatives, there is no recovery period required. You can walk out of your session and return to your normal daily activities—including exercise—immediately.
- 04
Root Cause Treatment — Lasting
Instead of just masking symptoms, this therapy addresses the underlying muscle weakness. By triggering thousands of supramaximal contractions, it builds the structural support needed for long-term control.
- 05
Dual Incontinence — Both Types
Whether you struggle with stress incontinence (leaking when sneezing or jumping) or urge incontinence (the sudden "gotta go" feeling), this treatment effectively targets both.
- 06
Sexual Function — 85% Improved
A stronger pelvic floor does more than stop leaks. By increasing blood flow and muscle tone, 85% of patients report significant improvements in sexual satisfaction and function.
- 07
For Everyone — Men & Women
Pelvic health is vital for all. This treatment is equally effective for women recovering from childbirth or menopause and men looking to improve bladder control or sexual health.

Frequently Asked Questions
01 How quickly will I see results from Emsella?
Many patients notice improvement after 2-3 sessions, with progressive strengthening continuing through the complete six-session treatment course. Optimal results typically develop in the weeks following your final session as muscle adaptation continues.
02 Is Emsella treatment painful?
No, Emsella is not painful. You'll feel tingling and strong muscle contractions during treatment, which most patients describe as unusual but comfortable. The intensity is adjustable to ensure your comfort throughout the session.
03 Can men receive Emsella treatment?
Yes, Emsella is FDA-cleared for both men and women. Men experiencing urinary incontinence, seeking improved bladder control, or wanting to strengthen pelvic floor muscles can benefit from treatment.
04 How does Emsella compare to doing Kegel exercises?
One Emsella session delivers approximately 11,000 supramaximal contractions—the equivalent of thousands of perfect Kegel exercises. Unlike voluntary Kegels, Emsella bypasses technique issues and activates 100% of muscle fibers at intensities impossible to achieve on your own.
05 How long do Emsella results last?
Clinical studies show 65% of patients maintain improvement at six months post-treatment. Results duration varies by individual factors, and many patients choose periodic maintenance sessions to sustain optimal pelvic floor strength.
06 Can I receive Emsella if I have a copper IUD?
No, copper IUDs are contraindicated for Emsella treatment due to the electromagnetic technology. The IUD would need to be removed before treatment. Discuss options with your provider.
07 Is there any downtime after Emsella treatment?
No, there is zero downtime. You can return to all normal activities immediately after your session, including work, exercise, and driving.
08 Will Emsella help with sexual function?
Clinical studies report that 85% of female patients experienced improved sexual function following Emsella treatment, attributed to the strengthened pelvic floor enhancing muscular control and sensation.
