Emsella Treatment in Kissimmee and Orlando FL

Emsella is a non-invasive treatment to reduce the frequency or completely rid of incontinence. It uses HIFEM (high-intensity focused electromagnetic) technology to contract and strengthen the muscles located in the pelvic floor to allow patients to experience freedom again that incontinence may have taken from them. A session with Emsella works to stimulate all of the relevant and important pelvic floor muscles to strengthen those muscles as well as restore neuromuscular control without any work or energy required from the patient and without even having to get undressed. Since it is an entirely non-invasive procedure, it requires no downtime, allowing patients to continue about their days after the session is complete. Most patients will be recommended to complete 6 sessions total spaced at least 2 days apart to reap the most benefits from the treatment.

Our pelvic floor muscles weaken with age for multiple reasons, but this can affect more than just bladder control. Emsella works by strengthening those muscles, which provides relief for incontinence, but also can treat vaginal laxity as a vaginal rejuvenation treatment. Vaginal laxity is caused by a decrease in collagen and elastin production in the body due to aging and changes in hormones, leading to muscle loss in the muscles and tissues of the vagina. This laxity can lead to other health concerns but can also make intercourse less enjoyable for women as some sensation is lost. Strengthening the pelvic floor muscles can help to undo that laxity, making women feel as though they are “tighter” and restoring that sensitivity to the area that they had previously lost, making intercourse and intimate relationships more enjoyable.

Emsella is a great option for anyone who is experiencing a weakened pelvic floor that is leading to other health conditions such as incontinence. Anyone of any age may experience urine leakage, most commonly while coughing, sneezing, or performing physical activity such as running. Since it is a non-invasive and it is a very safe treatment, it is a great option for anyone who would benefit from a strengthened pelvic floor. Emsella is not recommended for those who are pregnant, actively breastfeeding, have previously undergone a bladder lift surgery, or pelvis surgery, or suffer from diabetes, poor exercise tolerance, or a high BMI.

Once the patient has completed the recommended number of sessions for Emsella (it is typical to receive 6 sessions initially), these results can last anywhere from 6 to 12 months. If the symptoms begin to return, most patients will only need a one-time maintenance session to restore the necessary strength in the pelvic floor muscles once again. The results can be prolonged a bit with regular exercises to maintain the strength of the pelvic floor muscles such as with regular kegel exercise practices. Your Emsella provider will be able to provide recommendations to help you prolong the results of the treatment to ensure that you can get the most out of the initial sessions possible. Many patients will be able to experience results even after the very first session as the muscles will be instantly strengthened at least a bit and will continue to experience improving results as the sessions continue. The total lifespan of the results will depend on the severity of the case, as those who have milder cases and whose bodies respond well to Emsella treatments will likely be able to enjoy the results for longer than others.
