What is EMSELLA®?

The pelvic floor muscles are part of the core muscles, but are unfortunately difficult to train and therefore often a weak point even in well-trained people.

 

Most new training methods, such as Pilates, focus on the so-called core muscles. These muscles (oblique and straight abdominal muscles, lower abdominal muscles, spinal muscles, diaphragm and pelvic floor) support the trunk of the body. Strengthening these muscles contributes to general well-being.

After giving birth, during the menopause or in old age, many women complain of weak pelvic floor muscles and the resulting problems, such as stress incontinence or sexual dysfunction.

 

This is exactly where the new BTL EMSELLA® chair comes in. It works with focused energy to train the pelvic floor and sends electromagnetic waves through the abdomen. This triggers maximum muscle contractions. The muscle is trained 100 percent, which could never be achieved with normal training.

By strengthening the pelvic floor, the internal organs are better protected and slightly raised. Stress incontinence, which is often caused by weakness of the pelvic floor, can be significantly improved or even eliminated. As a side effect, the lower back and even the lower abdominal muscles are strengthened and toned during training.

In addition to an immediate and direct effect on the muscles, passive training also improves the feeling of the pelvic floor muscles and can then be trained more effectively.

The resulting tightening significantly alleviates existing incontinence and prevents bladder weakness. The pelvic floor can be tensed more consciously again and sexuality also improves.

EMSELLA® has been approved by the FDA as a treatment method for incontinence and its effectiveness has been confirmed by 15 international studies.

Frequently asked questions about the treatment of incontinence and bladder weakness with EMSELLA®

  1. How does treatment with BTL EMSELLA® work?
    The EMSELLA® chair generates muscle contractions by means of electromagnetic waves that are emitted to the muscles and tissue. This stimulates and strengthens the pelvic floor muscles, allowing the patient to regain better bladder control.
  2. Who is suitable for treatment with BTL EMSELLA®?
    Any woman who suffers from pelvic floor weakness or incontinence and would like to have this treated is suitable for treatment with BTL EMSELLA®. The BTL EMSELLA® chair can also be used preventively and in conjunction with a postnatal recovery course. The treatment can be carried out at any age. The only condition is that there is no metal in the body, i.e. no artificial joints, no pacemakers, no intimate piercings and no copper IUDs.
  3. How long should I expect the treatment to take and how many sessions are required?
    One session on the EMSELLA® chair takes around 30 minutes. A total of 6 sessions are usually necessary, for example twice a week.
  4. Should I pay attention to anything during treatment with BTL EMSELLA®?
    You do not need to pay attention to anything during treatment with BTL EMSELLA®. You can read/watch TV/listen to music or simply relax during the therapy. However, due to the electromagnetic waves, it is not possible to use electrical devices such as smartphones or tablets during the treatment.
  5. What should I bear in mind after treatment with BTL EMSELLA®?
    You will be fit for social life again immediately after treatment. This means you do not need to take any downtime into account and can resume everyday activities straight away.
  6. How much should I expect to pay for treatment with the EMSELLA® chair?
    A session with the EMSELLA® chair costs around €123 in our practice. As BTL EMSELLA® treatment is a self-pay service, statutory health insurance companies do not cover the costs. Private health insurance companies, on the other hand, usually cover the treatment costs.
