EMSELLA®
EMSELLA is a breakthrough non-invasive treatment specifically designed to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, providing a solution for urinary incontinence and improving overall pelvic health. Using high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology, EMSELLA induces deep, supramaximal contractions in the pelvic floor muscles, helping to restore muscle tone and neuromuscular control. This treatment is highly effective for individuals experiencing urinary incontinence, particularly stress or urge incontinence, and is especially beneficial for older adults who may experience muscle weakening due to ageing or post-menopausal changes. EMSELLA is ideal for individuals who want a non-surgical, comfortable solution to manage incontinence and improve pelvic health.

EMSELLA uses HIFEM technology to target the pelvic floor muscles through a series of intense, controlled contractions, which are impossible to achieve through voluntary exercises alone.
Here’s a closer look at how the treatment works:
High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) Technology: During the EMSELLA treatment, the client sits fully clothed on a specialized chair that emits HIFEM energy. This energy penetrates the pelvic floor muscles, causing thousands of supramaximal contractions per session—equivalent to performing around 11,000 Kegel exercises in a single 28-minute session.
Deep Muscle Stimulation: The intense muscle contractions strengthen the pelvic floor by increasing muscle fiber density and toning the muscles responsible for bladder control and pelvic support. This helps improve the function of the pelvic floor muscles and restores control over urinary function.
Non-Invasive and Comfortable: EMSELLA is a non-invasive, no-contact treatment that allows individuals to remain fully clothed. Clients sit comfortably on the chair without experiencing any discomfort, making it ideal for those seeking a gentle yet effective solution to incontinence and pelvic floor strengthening.
Effective Neuromuscular Re-Education: In addition to building muscle strength, EMSELLA helps re-educate the pelvic floor muscles and improve neuromuscular control, making it beneficial for individuals who may struggle to activate these muscles on their own, particularly as they age.

EMSELLA provides several benefits that make it a valuable treatment option for individuals of all ages, particularly older adults experiencing urinary incontinence or weakened pelvic floor muscles:
Improved Bladder Control and Reduced Incontinence: EMSELLA strengthens the pelvic floor muscles, which improves bladder control and significantly reduces the symptoms of stress and urge incontinence. This can have a positive impact on daily activities, comfort, and confidence.
Non-Invasive and Comfortable: Unlike surgical options for incontinence, EMSELLA is completely non-invasive, requiring no incisions or anaesthesia. Clients remain fully clothed during treatment, and there is no pain or discomfort, making it suitable for individuals of all ages, including older adults.
Enhanced Pelvic Support: By strengthening the pelvic floor, EMSELLA provides better support for pelvic organs, which can alleviate symptoms related to pelvic organ prolapse and improve overall pelvic health, especially in older women who may experience weakened pelvic structures due to hormonal changes.
Improved Quality of Life: Many people with urinary incontinence limit their daily activities, especially social outings, exercise, and travel, to avoid potential embarrassment. EMSELLA can help restore control over bladder function, allowing clients to enjoy a more active, unrestricted lifestyle.
Quick, Effective Treatment: Each EMSELLA session is only 28 minutes, making it easy to fit into a busy schedule. Many clients notice improvements after the first few sessions, with full benefits becoming apparent after completing the recommended treatment course.
-
One of the primary advantages of EMSELLA is its zero downtime.
Because it is a non-invasive, non-surgical treatment, clients can resume their normal activities immediately after each session.
There is no recovery period, and no restrictions on activities following treatment, making EMSELLA an ideal option for older adults and those with busy lifestyles.
-
EMSELLA is designed to deliver cumulative results through a structured treatment schedule:
Initial Treatment Protocol: For optimal results, clients typically undergo a course of six sessions spaced over three weeks, with two sessions per week. This schedule provides a comprehensive muscle-building approach, ensuring the pelvic floor becomes stronger and neuromuscular control is re-established.
Maintenance Treatments: After completing the initial series, some clients choose to have periodic maintenance sessions every 3 to 6 months. Maintenance treatments help sustain muscle strength and bladder control over time, particularly beneficial for older adults or those with chronic muscle weakness.
-
Clients can expect gradual improvements in bladder control and pelvic strength following their EMSELLA sessions:
Immediate Sensations: Some clients feel a noticeable improvement in pelvic floor strength and bladder control after the first few sessions, with enhanced muscle tone as the treatment progresses.
Continued Improvement: The benefits of EMSELLA continue to build throughout the treatment course, with full results typically visible within a few weeks after completing the recommended series of six sessions.
Long-Lasting Effects: With consistent treatments, the muscle-building effects of EMSELLA provide long-lasting improvements in bladder control and pelvic stability. For many clients, these benefits last for several months to a year, particularly when maintenance sessions are scheduled as needed.
