Who is an ideal candidate for EMSELLA® treatment at Seamless Health?
The ideal candidates for EMSELLA® are women and men who experience urinary incontinence, particularly those looking for a non-invasive option. It is especially beneficial for individuals who have not responded to other forms of conservative treatment, such as pelvic floor exercises. EMSELLA® is also suitable for individuals seeking preventative treatment to strengthen their pelvic floor as they age.
Can I immediately resume normal activities after an EMSELLA® session?
Yes, one of the significant advantages of EMSELLA® is that there is no downtime. You can resume daily activities immediately after each session, including returning to work or other routine activities. There are no restrictions post-treatment, making it a convenient option for those with active lifestyles.
When can I expect to see results from my EMSELLA® sessions?
Many clients report feeling a difference after the first or second treatment, with progressive improvements over the course of therapy. Optimal results are typically observed a few weeks after completing the entire series of treatments as the pelvic floor muscles strengthen and adapt to their new functionality. The timeline can vary, and we closely monitor your progress to optimize the treatment efficacy.
Is the EMSELLA® treatment uncomfortable?
The EMSELLA® treatment is generally painless. Clients typically experience a sensation of pelvic floor muscle contractions during the session, which is often described as a tingling or fluttering sensation. These contractions are not painful but are a sign that the treatment is actively engaging and strengthening the pelvic muscles. Our team ensures your utmost comfort throughout the process, adjusting the treatment intensity according to your feedback.
Can EMSELLA® address all types of urinary incontinence?
EMSELLA® is exceptionally effective in treating stress incontinence (leakage caused by exertion or coughing) and urge incontinence (a sudden, intense urge to urinate). It may be less effective for more complex types of incontinence, such as those resulting from neurological disorders. During your initial assessment at Seamless Health, we evaluate your specific type of incontinence to ensure that EMSELLA® is the most suitable treatment option for you.
What side effects might I experience with EMSELLA®?
EMSELLA® is renowned for its safety and has minimal to no side effects. Most clients experience no adverse reactions. However, some may notice a slight increase in urinary frequency immediately after the treatment, which typically normalizes within a day or two. We provide comprehensive guidance on what to expect and how to manage any sensations effectively during your treatment sessions.
Is the improvement from EMSELLA® treatment permanent?
The improvements from EMSELLA® are significant and enduring, but not permanent. The longevity of the results depends on various factors, including age, lifestyle, and any underlying health conditions. To maintain optimal results, periodic maintenance sessions are recommended. These help sustain muscle strength and functionality of the pelvic floor, especially as natural changes occur with aging.
How many treatments are needed for effective results with EMSELLA®?
A typical course of EMSELLA® treatment involves 6 sessions, scheduled twice a week for three weeks. This regimen may vary depending on individual factors such as the severity of incontinence and response to initial treatments. Our specialists at Seamless Health will tailor the treatment plan based on a thorough assessment of your condition during the initial consultation, ensuring it aligns with your specific needs and health goals.
