Pelvic Floor Strengthening FAQ
Get answers to your most common questions about Pelvic Floor Strengthening
What is Emsella, and how does it help men?
Emsella is a non-invasive, chair-based treatment that uses High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy to strengthen pelvic floor muscles. It helps men improve bladder control, reduce nighttime urination, and enhance sexual function — all while fully clothed.
How does the Emsella chair actually work?
You sit comfortably, fully dressed, while the chair delivers thousands of targeted electromagnetic pulses to your pelvic floor muscles. Each 28-minute session is the equivalent of over 11,000 Kegels — far more than you could do manually.
What men’s health issues can Emsella treat?
Emsella is ideal for men struggling with:
- Urinary incontinence (stress, urge, or mixed)
- Frequent nighttime urination (nocturia)
- Erectile dysfunction or weakened sexual performance
How many Emsella sessions are needed for results?
Most men benefit from 6 sessions over 3 weeks. Some feel improvements after just one treatment, with full results typically appearing in the weeks following the final session.
Is Emsella painful or uncomfortable?
Not at all. Most patients describe the sensation as tingling or mild contractions. There’s no pain, no downtime, and no need for anesthesia — you can return to normal activities immediately.
When will I notice improvements?
Some men report better bladder control or fewer nighttime bathroom trips after the first session. Results typically continue to improve as muscle strength builds over time.
Is Emsella FDA-cleared and safe?
Yes, Emsella is FDA-cleared for treating urinary incontinence and has an excellent safety profile. It’s not suitable for those with metal implants, active tumors, or certain heart conditions.
How does Emsella compare to doing Kegels?
Emsella achieves results that would take months of manual Kegel exercises — in just one session. It stimulates deeper muscles, more consistently, and with far better results than what most men can do on their own.
Can Emsella improve erectile dysfunction?
Yes. By strengthening the pelvic floor, Emsella can improve blood flow and nerve signaling, which may enhance erections and overall sexual satisfaction.
