When the pelvic muscles are weakened, the muscles do not provide adequate support, affecting bladder control and leading to incontinence issues. Pelvic floor muscles can weaken over time as a result of childbirth, menopause, aging, and other factors. Emsella is a one-of-a-kind treatment that uses the therapeutic power of High-Intensity Electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to stimulate the pelvic floor muscles through thousands of contractions. This treatment reduces urinary leakage, urgency, and frequency while also enhancing sexual health.

Candidates for Emsella incontinence treatment include healthy individuals of all ages who have common signs of weak pelvic floor muscles or are experiencing problems in this area, such as:

• Incontinence – involuntary leaking when exercising, laughing, or coughing/ sneezing

• Lack of voluntary control over urination or defecation

• Difficulty emptying bladder or bowels

• Vaginal laxity syndrome

• Pain in the pelvic area

• Pain during sexual intercourse

Emsella treatments last thirty minutes. Patients who undergo the entire process of Emsella receive six treatments, typically broken up into two thirty-minute treatments per week for three weeks.

During Emsella incontinence treatment, patients sit fully clothed on a specially designed chair that employs High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic technology (HIFEM). This energy causes deep and intense pelvic-floor muscle contractions, stimulating the muscles that hold the bladder & vital organs in place and aiding in the restoration of neuromuscular control. Over 11,000 supramaximal pelvic-floor muscular contractions occur during a single non-invasive Emsella treatment, which is the equivalent of performing over 11,000 Kegel exercises. Stimulating the entire pelvic floor area is critical for restoring neuromuscular control, re-educating muscles, and improving intimate well-being.

Emsella treatment for incontinence has almost no side effects. There is no downtime required, and patients can resume all normal activities immediately following treatment.

Depending on the initial severity of the condition and the number of treatments, results can vary per individual. For optimal results, the entire process typically consists of six treatments, twice a week for three weeks. The first treatment produces an immediate improvement in bladder control. However, as with all muscles, aging and gravity work against the anatomy, causing the pelvic muscles to sag if not exercised regularly.

The cost of Emsella incontinence treatment is determined by several factors, including the number of treatments performed and geographic location. In Canada, a single Emsella treatment costs between $270 and $330, while a full cycle of Emsella treatments costs between $2,000 and $3,000.

Although minimal, as with any treatment, there are risks including but not limited to:

• Muscular pain

• Temporary muscle spasm

• Temporary joint or tendon pain

• Local erythema or skin redness
