Emsella
Completely non-invasive option which has the support of several urological studies.
This unique technology revolutionizes pelvic floor muscular strength, improving urinary & sexual function as well as overall fitness. Those suffering from incontinence after pregnancy or with age now have a completely non-invasive option which has the support of several urological studies and high customer satisfaction.
How does it work?
Patients sit comfortably in a chair in their regular clothes. The chair focuses on targeted tissue in the pelvis, strengthening muscles and restoring the support of the pelvic organs. In women, the vaginal walls are tightened, and incontinence is decreased. In men, the muscular floor beneath the prostate, bladder and rectum are tightened for improved urinary function.
Emsella is a first of its kind technology, it is able to painlessly contract and fasciculate pelvic floor muscles 11,200 times in a 28-minute session. The treatment protocol is 2 treatments per week for 3 weeks for a total of 6 treatments. The treatment is quite relaxing and easy, patients can sit on the electromagnetic chair fully seated, reading a magazine or listening to music. There is no downtime after each session, you can have your session during lunch break, you can eat while having a treatment! For patients who are not candidates for a sling procedure or wish to optimize their pelvic muscle strength prior to surgery, Emsella is here.
Emsella is truly a groundbreaking product and the best out there when it comes to treating incontinence in a non-invasive and painless way. For more information or to find out if Emsella would be a good choice for you, call 417-888-0858 for more information.

FAQ's
Does Emsella really work for urinary incontinence?
Yes, Emsella has been clinically proven to improve bladder control and reduce urinary incontinence. Clinical studies have shown significant improvements in patients who complete a full treatment series. The technology uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy to strengthen pelvic floor muscles, which are essential for bladder control.
How many Emsella treatments do I need to see results?
Most patients require 6 sessions over a 3-to-6-week period (typically 1-2 sessions per week) for optimal results. However, many people notice improvements after just 2-3 treatment sessions. Your provider will create a personalized treatment plan based on your specific needs.
Is Emsella painful?
No, Emsella is not painful. You'll experience a tingling sensation and feel your pelvic floor muscles contracting, similar to doing Kegel exercises. The sensation is new and different at first, but most patients find it comfortable and even describe it as a pleasant massage-like feeling.
Can men benefit from Emsella treatment?
Yes, Emsella is FDA-cleared for treating urinary incontinence in both men and women. Men experiencing urinary leakage, frequent urination, and nighttime bathroom trips can benefit from Emsella treatment. Some men also report improvements in pelvic floor function that may positively affect other aspects of pelvic health.
How long do Emsella results last?
Results typically last 6-12 months. To maintain long-lasting benefits, many patients opt for occasional maintenance sessions (every few months) along with at-home Kegel exercises to keep their pelvic floor muscles strong.
What should I wear to my Emsella appointment?
You remain fully clothed during Emsella treatment, so wear comfortable clothing. Avoid wearing clothing with metal zippers or embellishments in the treatment area, as the technology uses electromagnetic energy. Wear thinner shorts or pants so that the electromagnetic pulses can easily pass through the fabric. Avoid thicker materials like jeans.
Is there any downtime after Emsella treatment?
No, Emsella is completely non-invasive with zero downtime. You can resume all normal daily activities immediately after your session, including work, exercise, and driving.
Can Emsella improve sexual function?
Yes, many patients report improved sexual satisfaction after Emsella treatment. Strengthened pelvic floor muscles can enhance sensation, improve the ability to achieve orgasm in women, and help with erectile function and control in men.
Is Emsella covered by insurance?
Emsella is currently classified as a cosmetic procedure and is not covered by insurance. Please contact our office to learn about available payment options.
What conditions can Emsella treat besides incontinence?
Beyond urinary incontinence, Emsella can help with vaginal laxity, postpartum recovery, pelvic organ prolapse symptoms, sexual dysfunction, bowel incontinence, and general pelvic floor weakness from aging, childbirth, or menopause.
