Strengthening Your Pelvic Floor
Twenty-five million Americans suffer from incontinence. It can happen after pregnancy, surgery, or age alone. As the pelvic floor weakens, our internal organs start to drop, putting pressure on the bladder. By building up and strengthening the pelvic floor, we can reduce the symptoms of incontinence.
That’s where Emsella in Chicago at CaTara Medical Spa comes in. Emsella is an FDA-cleared, advanced treatment for urinary incontinence. This non-invasive procedure uses High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy to trigger muscle contractions in the pelvic floor.
Emsella for sexual health – Strengthening the pelvic floor has additional benefits in that it also improves sensation in the area which helps improve sexual function and pleasure.
