How Does EMSELLA® Help Strengthen Pelvic Floor Muscles?

For many women, issues such as urinary incontinence, sexual dysfunction, and mild prolapse are a daily source of frustration and embarrassment. The pelvic floor weakens over time for a variety of reasons, and exercise alone may not be enough to restore the area. The good news is that EMSELLA is a proven technology that helps strengthen your pelvic floor muscles without a single Kegel or invasive surgical procedure. EMSELLA uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy to stimulate and strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. 

At Evolve Med Spa in Dallas, TX, board-certified physician Dr. Tricia Shimer is proud to offer this advanced technology to patients so they can improve their pelvic health. Call today to learn more about our personalized approach. 

Factors that weaken the pelvic floor 

The pelvic floor is a group of muscles that support the bladder, bowel, and uterus. Pregnancy and childbirth are among the most significant contributors to pelvic floor weakness, and menopause, aging, and years of high-impact activity can take a toll on this area as well. As these muscles lose strength, many women seek out urinary incontinence treatment because they begin to experience leaks when they cough, sneeze, or exercise. 

While many women assume nothing can be done about these issues, there are nonsurgical options available. EMSELLA is a proven technology that can improve health and overall quality of life. 

How does EMSELLA work? 

So, how does EMSELLA work? As mentioned, the EMSELLA chair uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic technology to stimulate thousands of pelvic floor contractions during a single 30-minute session. These contractions go far beyond what voluntary exercise can produce, helping to strengthen your pelvic floor muscles from within. 

Best of all? The EMSELLA chair requires no undressing, no needles, and no downtime. Patients simply sit fully clothed in the EMSELLA chair while the device works. Most describe the sensation as a mild tingling with rhythmic muscle contractions that are comfortable. 

What results look like over time 

A standard EMSELLA treatment plan consists of six sessions, scheduled twice a week for three weeks, at our office in Dallas, TX. Most patients at Evolve Med Spa begin to notice improvements in their symptoms within the first few sessions, with results continuing to build over time. Commonly reported benefits include:  

• Reduced leakage: Patients often use EMSELLA as a urinary incontinence treatment so they can feel more comfortable during physical activity. 
• Improved intimacy: Many women say that EMSELLA improves sensation in the vaginal area, which can make a big difference in their relationships. 
• Increased confidence: With fewer leaks and greater control, patients report feeling more confident and less anxious in social and physical situations. 
• Better pelvic support: Strengthening the pelvic floor can help improve symptoms of mild prolapse, providing better support for pelvic organs. 

Dr. Shimer will recommend a regular maintenance schedule based on your individual pelvic health needs.
