No, the Emsella Chair is not painful. It is designed to be a comfortable and non-invasive incontinence treatment. During the session, you will feel supramaximal pelvic floor muscle contractions, which may cause a tingling sensation but should not cause pain. The procedure is pain-free, and you can remain fully clothed during the treatment. This makes the Emsella Chair an excellent option for men and women looking to improve their pelvic health and intimate wellness without discomfort.
While the Emsella Chair is suitable for many individuals, certain conditions may make someone an unsuitable candidate. People who are currently pregnant, have a pacemaker, metal implants such as hip replacements, or have a copper coil (IUD) should avoid this treatment. Additionally, individuals with severe pelvic organ prolapse or other significant pelvic floor dysfunction should consult their healthcare provider to explore alternative treatments.
The Emsella Chair is a non-invasive procedure with minimal side effects. Most patients do not experience any discomfort during or after the treatment. The most common sensation reported is a slight tingling or muscle contraction feeling during the session. There are no significant side effects associated with the Emsella Chair, making it a safe option for treating urinary incontinence and improving pelvic floor strength. Patients can resume their normal daily activities immediately after treatment sessions.
Yes, the Emsella Chair is an effective treatment for strengthening the pelvic floor and treating urinary incontinence. The Emsella treatment uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy to create supramaximal pelvic floor muscle contractions. These contractions are much stronger than those achieved with regular pelvic floor exercises, leading to significant improvements in bladder control and pelvic health for many patients. Clinical studies and patient testimonials have shown positive results in reducing symptoms of stress urinary incontinence and urge urinary incontinence.
When a lack of bladder control affects you by restricting the activities you can do, or affects your confidence, it may be time to meet with dr diana in a free consultation to discuss your bladder control.
It is a comfortable treatment where you remain fully clothed throughout the treatment. You will receive thousands of pelvic contractions during your session on the emsella chair.
A standard course is two 30 minute sessions per week, for three weeks. A total of 6 sessions over 3 weeks.
Each treatment is 30 minutes of sitting on the emsella chair.
Each patient is different, however many people feel a benefit after the first treatment with results improving over the three weeks of treatment.
The emsella chair gives thousands of pelvic contractions or kegel/ pelvic floor contractions in a 30 minute treatment. The strength of each contraction is much more intense than you could get from a kegel exercise and are therefore more effective.
Your suitability for treatment will be determined during your complimentary consultation with dr diana. As this technology relies on magnets, anyone with metal implants or a pace maker may not be suitable. If you are not suitable for this treatment, dr diana has multiple treatment options for incontinence and vaginal tightening.
