BTL EMSELLA

EMSELLA is a completely non invasive treatment designed to strengthen the pelvic floor and improve urinary incontinence. Using advanced HIFEM technology, EMSELLA stimulates thousands of powerful muscle contractions in a single session. Fully clothed. No downtime. Just stronger support where it matters most.

EMSELLA BENEFITS

How it Works

EMSELLA uses high intensity focused electromagnetic technology to stimulate the entire pelvic floor area non invasively. These contractions are similar to performing Kegel exercises, but at a much higher intensity and depth than you could achieve on your own. Each 28 minute session delivers thousands of muscle contractions that help strengthen and re educate weakened pelvic floor muscles. As muscle strength improves, bladder control and support improve as well. The result is better muscle tone, improved neuromuscular control, and greater confidence in daily activities.

Patient Fact Sheet

Say no to incontinence

About urinary incontinence

Urinary incontinence is defined as the involuntary leakage of urine. This might be a result of weak pelvic floor muscles since pelvic floor muscles play an important role in supporting pelvic organs and controlling continence.

There are three different types of urinary incontinence:

Stress incontinence: is when there is exerted pressure on the bladder causing leakage. This can be caused by coughing, laughing, sneezing, or exercising.
Urge: is the sudden, intense urge to urinate frequently.
Mixed incontinence: is a combination of both stress and urge incontinence.

Physiological changes can contribute to the development of urinary incontinence; changes such as vaginal delivery, menopause, and aging can decondition pelvic floor muscles. In order to improve symptoms, it is important to strengthen these muscles. Possible ways to improve your condition may include lifestyle changes and Kegel exercises.

What to expect during the treatment

During BTL EMSELLA treatment you will be completely clothed yet, we recommended loosely fitted clothing to help achieve best positioning during treatment. When the treatment starts you will feel slight tingling and vibrations in your pelvic floor muscles that will then turn into full contractions. This will be completely comfortable and tolerable. If not, please let your healthcare provider know and they will adjust accordingly. Take this 28 minute session to relax, read a magazine, or watch television. You will be able to return to normal activities after the treatment.

Learn the terms

Pelvic floor: The bowl shaped muscles in the pelvic area that support pelvic organs, including the uterus, bladder and rectum.
Pelvic floor muscle exercises (Kegels): Exercises that strengthen the pelvic floor. Regular exercising of the pelvic floor muscles can improve or prevent urinary leakage.
Bladder training: Behavior therapy that helps you wait longer between bathroom trips so that you can go to the bathroom when it is convenient for you rather than the sudden urge.

Mechanism of action

BTL EMSELLA is the HIFEM procedure, that utilizes electromagnetic energy, at a high frequency, to cause pelvic floor muscle stimulation completely non invasively. Similar to the contractions you perform when doing a Kegel exercise. What makes this treatment effective is the in depth penetration and stimulation of the entire pelvic floor area. A single session brings you thousands of intense contractions that you would not be able to do on your own. These contractions are very helpful when it comes to muscle strengthening and re education.

Patient Facts Overview

Quick reference

Patient Positioning

Quick setup

Positioning steps

1
Sit comfortably at the center of the chair.
2
To achieve correct treatment position height of the chair can be set. Your health care provider will help you with this.
3
Your feet should be flat on the floor, shoulder width apart (which varies patient to patient).
4
Place your knees just above your feet at a 90 degree angle with slight outward rotation.
5
Angle your pelvic area closest to the center of the chair, you may have to tilt forward or backward to get the right angle.
6
Keep your spine straight and relax your hands on your thighs.

The first minute of therapy is there to help you gauge positioning. The tapping should be over the perineum. Either adjust forward, back, or towards either side to find the target area.

Additional patient facts

Do not lean back on the chair.
Do not hunch your back.
Keep feet flat on the ground.
Do not keep your legs together, crossed, or too spread out.
Jewelry, belts, cards, coins, wallet, and watches should be removed before treatment. Also keep phones and other electronics away from the device.
Wear comfortable clothing, nothing too tight that will prevent correct positioning.

During treatment: you will be completely clothed. Loosely fitted clothing is recommended for best positioning. You can return to normal activities after the treatment.
