The Technology
Meet the Emsella
chair.
The Emsella chair — HIFEM® energy delivers thousands of pelvic floor contractions in a single 28-minute session.
Fully clothed, fully comfortable — a typical Emsella session at Kane Medical Aesthetics.
What Is Emsella
The workout your pelvic floor can't do on its own.
Emsella is a non-invasive treatment chair that uses High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM®) energy to stimulate deep pelvic floor muscles — the same muscles engaged during a Kegel exercise, but activated far more completely than voluntary contraction allows.
You simply sit down, fully clothed, for a 28-minute session. The chair delivers thousands of rapid, supramaximal contractions that reach muscle fibres most people can’t consciously engage on their own, re-educating the neuromuscular pathways that control bladder function.
It’s the same technology behind BTL’s Emsculpt line, adapted specifically for the pelvic floor — which is why it’s become one of the most requested treatments for postpartum recovery, perimenopause, and everyday bladder confidence.
Emsella is equally effective for men. The same pelvic floor muscles support bladder control after prostate procedures, with age, and following changes in activity level — and many men also see improvements in pelvic floor–related sexual function.
Is This You?
Pelvic floor weakness
shows up differently for
women and men —
Emsella addresses both.
For Women
Common symptoms
- Leaking when you laugh, sneeze, cough, or exercise (stress incontinence)
- Sudden, urgent trips to the bathroom that don’t feel fully in your control (urge incontinence)
- Pelvic floor weakness or laxity after pregnancy and childbirth
- Bladder changes during perimenopause and menopause
What Emsella resolves
- Reduced stress and urge urinary leakage
- Stronger pelvic floor support after childbirth
- Improved bladder control through menopause-related changes
- Greater confidence during exercise, travel, and everyday activity
For Men
Common symptoms
- Dribbling or leakage after urination, or with coughing and lifting
- Urinary incontinence following prostate surgery (post-prostatectomy)
- Weak urine stream or increased urgency tied to an aging pelvic floor
- Reduced firmness or duration linked to pelvic floor weakness
What Emsella resolves
- Improved bladder control, including after prostate procedures
- Reduced dribbling and urgency
- A strengthened pelvic floor that supports erectile function
- Fewer disruptions to daily activity and exercise

What to Expect
Your Emsella journey,
session by session.
Consultation & assessment
We review your history and goals to confirm Emsella is the right fit, and
build a session plan around your schedule.
Session 1 — first sensations
You sit, fully clothed, as the chair begins gentle contractions that build to
a comfortable, rhythmic intensity. Many patients feel a subtle difference
by the end of week one.
28 minutes
Sessions 2–6 — building strength
Twice a week for three weeks, each session adds to the neuromuscular re-
education already underway. Results build progressively rather than all at
once.
6 sessions total · twice weekly
Weeks after treatment
Improvement typically continues for several weeks after your final session,
as strengthened muscles settle into their new baseline function.
Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers before you book.
Emsella is a non-invasive chair that uses HIFEM (High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic) energy to trigger thousands of supramaximal contractions in the pelvic floor muscles — similar to a Kegel, but far more intense than a person can produce voluntarily. You remain fully clothed and seated for the entire session.
No. Most people describe it as a strong tingling and rhythmic tapping sensation as the muscles contract. There’s no pain, no needles, and no recovery time — you can return to normal activities immediately after your session.
A standard plan is six sessions, twice a week for three weeks, at about 28 minutes each. Many patients notice early changes within the first few sessions, with results continuing to build over the following weeks.
Emsella is generally suitable for women and men dealing with stress, urge, or mixed urinary incontinence, postpartum pelvic floor weakness, prostate-related bladder changes, or general pelvic floor laxity. It isn’t recommended during pregnancy or for anyone with a pacemaker, certain metal implants, or specific bleeding disorders. Your consultation will confirm candidacy.
Yes. Emsella works on the same pelvic floor muscles in men as in women, and is commonly used to support bladder control related to aging or prostate procedures. Many men also report improvements in pelvic floor–related sexual function. The treatment process, session length, and plan are the same as for female patients.
A single session produces thousands of pelvic floor contractions in about 28 minutes — far beyond what’s achievable voluntarily — and engages the entire pelvic floor consistently, rather than depending on correct at-home technique.
