The Latest Innovation in Urinary Incontinence Treatments
Urinary incontinence is a common health problem, affecting 200 million people worldwide. If you’re one of them, you know all too well the challenges of living with this condition.
At Clinical Aesthetics, we believe getting the right treatment for this condition will reduce frequent bathroom stops and minimize embarrassing accidents. That’s where EmSella comes in, a revolutionary new treatment option for urinary incontinence.
What Is Urinary Incontinence?
Urinary incontinence is a condition that affects the normal ability of your bladder to store and release urine. There are five forms of urinary incontinence:
- Stress incontinence: when your bladder leaks urine from pressure being placed on it—for example, from coughing or laughter.
- Urge incontinence: characterized by sudden urges to urinate. It comes without warning and makes it difficult to get to the restroom.
- Mixed incontinence: a mix of urge and stress urinary incontinence.
- Overflow incontinence: when the bladder cannot empty completely, causing urine to leak out.
- Functional incontinence: when someone is impaired in some way that makes urination difficult.
How Can EmSella Help?
While pelvic floor exercises like Kegels are usually the best option for preventing bladder leakage and other urinary issues, problems may still arise when these exercises are not practiced daily or a woman has had children.
The fact is that EmSella is a more effective treatment for urinary incontinence than Kegel exercises. Though Kegels may help strengthen the pelvic floor over time, they are not as potent an option as this treatment. In just one brief session on the EmSella chair, you can perform thousands of supramaximal contractions—the equivalent of 10,000 Kegels!
How Does EmSella Work?
EmSella is a non-surgical, non-invasive procedure to treat incontinence that results from weakened pelvic floor muscles. The EmSella chair sends a high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) wave through the user’s pelvic floor muscles to create supramaximal contractions over a 30-minute session twice weekly for three weeks.
The chair targets weakened muscles within the pelvic floor, improving bladder control and reducing incontinence. Although some patients may experience immediate results, others will not feel any difference until they have had several sessions. Over 95% of people who use EmSella and have stress, urge, or mixed-urge urinary incontinence will see improvement in their symptoms.
