Meet the Kegel Throne
Do you struggle with urinary incontinence? Bladder leakage? Nocturia (getting up to pee at night)? Or erectile dysfunction? Let us introduce you to our Kegel throne, aka, the Emsella Chair! The Emsella chair is a groundbreaking new form of technology that strengthens and lifts your pelvic floor, which conveys many health benefits.
When the pelvic floor weakens over time, the pelvic floor muscles become weaker and stretched, especially so after pregnancy. When these pelvic floor muscles are not working properly, it directly contributes to issues like bladder leakage.
The pelvic floor muscles can grow weaker or stretched with age or through pregnancy, and thus these muscles can eventually insufficiently support the pelvic organs and affect bladder control, thus leading to issues like incontinence and more. Thankfully, we have a treatment where patients can simply sit back, relax, and let our technology take care of all the work for you.
How does Emsella work?
The Emsella chair uses oscillating electromagnetism to generate High Intensity Focused ElectroMagnetic (HIFEM) energy to stimulate your pelvic floor muscles into completing rhythmic supramaximal contractions (something not possible with conscious control). These supramaximal contractions lead to new muscle recruitment, new muscle cellular division, and muscle tissue remodeling—effectively lifting the pelvic floor up to 5 cm.
Each treatment generates 11,800 contractions, which would be equivalent to doing 11,800 kegel exercises, but with supramaximal contractions. This continuous stimulation over the course of the instructed sessions leads to retained control over the pelvic floor muscles and bladder.
What are the treatments like?
The best part? You’re fully clothed and able to sit and relax for 28 minutes while the machine does all the work for you. There is no pain and no downtime, so you are able to get right back to your day upon leaving.
Who can benefit from Emsella?
Emsella is beneficial to both men and women. Postpartum and menopausal women as well as men who have undergone prostate surgery (prostatectomy) and struggle with stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Stress Urinary incontinence is the symptom of losing control of the bladder due to increased valsalva pressure (the pressure inside generated when laughing, crying, sneezing, coughing, etc). There is also demonstrated benefit for helping with erectile dysfunction, nocturia, and quality of life.
If this applies to you, what are you waiting for? Take back control of your bladder and your functional pelvic core. We all deserve to laugh more and pee less.
