What is the Emsella Pelvic Floor Treatment?
You may be wondering what Esmella is and why you need it. Well for starters, Emsella is a non-invasive treatment that uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. If you are dealing with urinary incontinence, menopause, postpartum pelvic floor weakness, or simply want to improve your sexual health, then Esmella is the treatment for you! Maintaining pelvic floor health through proper exercises and care is essential for people of all ages and genders. With effective solutions available to help strengthen and restore your pelvic floor muscles, CATARA Medical Spa is here to guide you through the process.
Understanding Pelvic Floor Health
Although you may not think about them often, your pelvic floor muscles contribute more to your daily health than you may know. Several bodily functions rely on pelvic floor health to function properly, such as:
- Bladder and Bowel Control: Strong pelvic floor muscles help maintain urinary and fecal continence by supporting the bladder, urethra, and rectum.
- Organ Support: The pelvic floor acts like a hammock to support pelvic organs including the bladder, uterus/prostate, and rectum. Without proper support, these organs can prolapse or drop.
- Core Stability: The pelvic floor works with other core muscles to stabilize the spine and pelvis, providing a foundation for movement.
- Sexual Function: Healthy pelvic floor muscles are crucial for sexual arousal, sensation, and orgasm in both men and women.
- Pain Prevention: Weak or overly tight pelvic floor muscles can lead to pelvic pain, lower back pain, and pain during intercourse.
- Circulation: The pelvic floor muscles assist in pumping blood back to the heart, aiding circulation.
Strengthen and Restore Pelvic Floor with Emsella
In the late 1940s, American gynecologist Dr. Arnold H. Kegel invented what are today known as Kegel exercises: exercises and contractions that help men and women strengthen their pelvic muscles and regain control over essential body functions. Just one 30 minute session on the Esmella treatment chair is equivalent to 11,000 Kegel exercises!
During a session with the Esmella pelvic floor treatment, patients sit fully clothed on the Esmella chair, which uses High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to trigger a reaction from the muscles. The electromagnetic stimulation causes deep pelvic floor muscle contractions, which help strengthen and re-educate the muscles.
These contractions are painless and essential to strengthening the pelvic floor. Patients often describe the feeling as a tingling sensation during treatment and often can carry on a conversation or read a magazine or book throughout the treatment.
