Non-Invasive Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation by BTL

FDA-Cleared | Fully Clothed Treatment | 28 Minutes | No Downtime

What Is EMSELLA?

EMSELLA is a breakthrough non-invasive treatment by BTL Industries that uses High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM®) technology to rehabilitate the pelvic floor and restore neuromuscular control — without surgery, medication, or the need to undress. Patients sit on the EMSELLA chair while the device delivers thousands of supramaximal pelvic floor muscle contractions in a 28-minute session. EMSELLA is FDA-cleared for urinary incontinence in both men and women.

How It Works

The pelvic floor is a group of muscles supporting pelvic organs and controlling bladder function. Weakening from aging, childbirth, menopause, or surgery can lead to incontinence and reduced intimate satisfaction. HIFEM® technology induces supramaximal contractions far beyond what voluntary Kegels can produce — re-educating and strengthening the entire pelvic floor musculature. Each 28-minute session is the equivalent of 11,000 Kegel exercises. The standard protocol is six sessions scheduled twice a week.

What to Expect

Most patients notice significant improvement after two to three treatments. The sensation is described as tingling and controlled muscle contractions. There is no pain, and patients can read or relax throughout the session. EMSELLA also delivers improvements in sexual function and intimate satisfaction. A published clinical study showed 95% of patients reported significant improvement in quality of life after completing six sessions, with 100% reporting better pelvic floor awareness and control.

Who Is a Great Candidate for This Treatment?

  • Women experiencing stress urinary incontinence (leaking when coughing, sneezing, or exercising)
  • Women with urge incontinence or overactive bladder
  • Postpartum women seeking pelvic floor rehabilitation after childbirth
  • Women experiencing pelvic floor changes related to menopause
  • Men affected by urinary incontinence following prostate surgery or radiation
  • Individuals seeking improved intimate wellness and sexual satisfaction
  • Anyone who wants a non-surgical, medication-free solution to pelvic floor weakness
  • NOT suitable for those who are pregnant, have a pacemaker, metal implants (e.g., hip replacement), defibrillator, or copper IUD

What Is the Downtime?

  • Zero downtime — patients resume all daily activities immediately after each session
  • Treatment is performed fully clothed; no preparation or post-care routine required
  • Sensation during treatment: mild tingling and pelvic floor muscle contractions — not painful
  • Some patients notice improvement after a single session; optimal results after 6 sessions
  • Annual maintenance sessions recommended to sustain results as aging continues

Population Affected

Urinary incontinence affects over 19 million women in the U.S. alone, yet 5 out of 10 women do not seek help — making EMSELLA a meaningful solution for an underserved concern.

Beyond Incontinence

Clinical studies show EMSELLA provides not only improved urinary incontinence but also improved female sexual function. Combined with EMSCULPT NEO, patients benefit from improved abdominal core strength and pelvic floor stability (CORE TO FLOOR therapy).
