Strengthen Your Foundation
Your pelvic floor supports more than you think — your core, your control, your confidence. Whether you’re a new mom, navigating midlife changes, a man dealing with post-surgical challenges, or an athlete chasing peak performance, Emsella rebuilds pelvic floor strength from the inside out. Non-invasive, fully clothed, no downtime — just results.
Why Your Pelvic Floor Matters More Thank You Think
The pelvic floor is. agroup of muscles forming the base of your core, supporting the bladder, uterus or prostate, and rectum. A strong, functional pelvic floor is essential not just for bladder control, but for core stability, sexual wellness, athletic performance, and overall quality of life.
Over time, through aging, childbirth, hormonal shifts, high-impact training, or surgery, these muscles lose tone and strength. The effects can show up in ways you might not expect: leaking when you laugh or sneeze, urgency, reduced sexual sensation, compromised power transfer during exercise, or just a nagging sense that your core foundation just isn’t quite what it used to be.
Here's what matters most: this is incredibly common across all genders and fitness levels - and its very treatable!
What is EmSella?
Emsella is a non-invasive treatment by BTL that uses HIFEM® (High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic) technology to stimulate the entire pelvic floor area. You sit in the Emsella chair while focused electromagnetic energy triggers deep, supramaximal pelvic floor contractions.
One 28-minute session delivers over 11,000 contractions. Think of it as thousands of perfectly executed Kegel exercises happening simultaneously, but reaching deeper muscle fibers that voluntary exercise simply can’t access.
This triggers real structural changes in the muscle: existing fibers grow stronger (hypertrophy) and new protein strands and muscle fibers are created (hyperplasia). The result is a pelvic floor that genuinely functions better.
How it works:
The HIFEM® Difference
Kegel exercises are a good starting point, but for many people they’re not enough, especially when weakness is already significant. The problem is that weakened pelvic floor muscles can’t generate the intensity and repetition rate needed to truly rebuild on their own.
Emsella bypasses this limitation entirely. Focused electromagnetic energy selectively penetrates deep into the pelvic floor, triggering contractions that exceed anything achievable voluntarily. Clinical research confirms Emsella is 3x more effective than traditional electrical muscle stimulation.
Progressive Treatment Protocols
Emsella uses two 28-minute protocols designed to progressively load and rebuild the pelvic floor:
- Protocol 1 gently awakens deconditioned muscles using lower frequencies, gradually increasing stimulation intensity with built-in rest phases to prevent overloading.
- Protocol 2 builds on early gains with higher-frequency sequences targeting muscles that have already developed baseline strength, driving stronger contractions, increased blood flow, and deeper adaptation.
Sessions are typically twice weekly. Most courses complete in 3 weeks (6 sessions), and many patients begin noticing results after their second or third session.
For Women
Reclaim Control, Comfort & Confidence
Pelvic floor changes are a near-universal part of the female experience — yet far too many women accept them as something they just have to live with. They don’t.
Whether your symptoms started after childbirth, shifted with menopause, or have gradually crept in with age, EmSella rebuilds the foundation from the inside out. The changes are real, measurable, and lasting.
What Women Use Emsella For
-
Stress incontinence — leaking when coughing, sneezing, laughing, or exercising
-
Urge incontinence — that sudden, intense need to go that’s hard to suppress
-
Mixed incontinence — a combination of both
-
Postpartum recovery — rebuilding pelvic tone after vaginal delivery
-
Menopausal pelvic changes — addressing muscle loss and reduced estrogen support
-
Enhanced sexual sensation — firmer pelvic muscles intensify sensation and can improve orgasm
-
Vaginal laxity and pelvic organ support
Results typically last 6 to 12 months. Many women choose periodic maintenance sessions to sustain their gains alongside at-home Kegel practice.
For Men
Pelvic Floor Health Is a Men’s Issue Too
Men have pelvic floors. And just like women, those muscles weaken with age, stress, surgery, or inactivity — with consequences that go far beyond bladder control. Yet men are rarely told this is even something they can address.
EmSella is changing that conversation. More men are discovering that a few 28-minute sessions can meaningfully improve bladder function, sexual performance, and overall pelvic health — without medication, surgery, or anything invasive.
Bladder Control
Urinary leakage, urgency, and frequent bathroom trips are not inevitable parts of aging for men. They’re symptoms of a weakened pelvic floor — and they respond well to treatment. EmSella strengthens the muscular floor beneath the bladder and prostate, improving neuromuscular control and reducing or eliminating leakage.
For men who have undergone prostatectomy or other prostate treatments, pelvic floor weakness is especially common and can be significant. EmSella has shown strong results in this population, helping men regain control and rebuild confidence that surgery or treatment may have taken away. Some providers even recommend EmSella before prostatectomy to condition the muscles in advance, which can support faster recovery.
Sexual Health & Performance
The pelvic floor plays a direct and underappreciated role in male sexual function. The muscles responsible for maintaining an erection work by compressing the veins that would otherwise allow blood to flow back out of the penis. When those muscles are weak, sustaining an erection becomes harder — literally a structural problem, not just a hormonal one.
EmSella strengthens these muscles, which can translate to improved erectile function, better ejaculatory control, and enhanced sexual sensation. Men who complete a treatment course frequently report improvements in confidence and satisfaction that they didn’t expect from what seemed like a simple pelvic floor treatment.
Core Strength & Lower Back
The pelvic floor doesn’t work in isolation — it’s part of the entire core system, working in coordination with the deep abdominals, diaphragm, and spinal stabilizers. A stronger pelvic floor means better overall core stability, improved posture, and reduced risk of lower back pain. Men who sit for long periods, lift heavy loads, or have experienced back issues may find Emsella to be a meaningful piece of their recovery or maintenance routine.
FAQs
How many sessions will I need?
The standard course is 6 sessions, twice per week over 3 weeks. Your provider may recommend adjustments based on your starting point and goals.
How soon will I see results?
Many patients notice changes after 2–3 sessions. The most significant results typically appear in the weeks following completion of the full course, as muscle remodeling continues. Results generally last 6 to 12 months, with maintenance sessions available as needed.
Is it painful?
No. You’ll feel strong muscle contractions — and they are intense — but the treatment should never be painful. Intensity is adjusted throughout based on your feedback
Can Emsella be combined with other treatments?
Yes. At Red Light & More, Emsella pairs especially well with EmSculpt Neo as part of a Core to Floor approach, addressing both the pelvic floor and abdominal-glute complex for a comprehensive core upgrade. Your provider can help you design a protocol around your specific goals.
How do I get started?
The first step is scheduling a free consultation with Sharon at Red Light & More. During this session, we’ll discuss your health history, wellness goals, and concerns, assess whether EmSculpt Neo is right for you, and create a personalized treatment plan. There’s no pressure, just honest conversation about how we can best support your health and vitality.
Are there any side effects?
Emsella is not appropriate for everyone. Please inform your provider if any of the following apply:
- Cardiac pacemakers or implanted defibrillators

Results, Backed by Research
Emsella has a strong body of peer-reviewed clinical evidence. A 2025 study published in Healthcare (a peer-reviewed journal indexed by the National Institutes of Health) compared Emsella therapy directly to surgical options for urinary incontinence — and found Emsella delivered meaningful clinical outcomes without any of the risks, recovery time, or invasiveness of surgery.
68% improvement in UI symptoms at 6 months post-treatment
87% of patients reported significant reduction in pad use
95% overall patient satisfaction rate
3x more effective than electrical muscle stimulation
Beyond incontinence metrics, patients across all demographics consistently report improvements in core stability, sexual wellness, confidence, and daily quality of life.
