Who is Emsella for?
Support for women and men at different stages of life
Pelvic floor symptoms are common and can affect confidence, intimacy and everyday life. A private clinical assessment helps determine what is causing your symptoms and whether Emsella is an appropriate part of your care.
After childbirth
Pelvic floor weakness following pregnancy and birth, once recovery is medically appropriate.
Men’s pelvic health
Pelvic floor strengthening after radical prostatectomy, with clearance from your treating clinician.
Sexual function concerns
For suitable women and men where pelvic floor weakness may be contributing to reduced function or confidence.
Bowel control concerns
Difficulty controlling wind or stool, or a feeling of incomplete emptying, can involve the pelvic floor. These symptoms need assessment first; Emsella is not suitable for every bowel concern.
Difficulty with exercises
For suitable people who find it difficult to correctly activate their pelvic floor muscles or want additional strengthening support.
Not sure where your symptoms fit?That’s completely okay. Start with a confidential conversation with Jo—there is no pressure to proceed with treatment.
Why people choose Emsella
Modern pelvic floor strengthening, made simple
Emsella uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic technology to stimulate the pelvic floor muscles. During each 28-minute session, the technology produces approximately 11,200 pelvic floor muscle contractions while you remain fully clothed and comfortably seated.
In Australia, Emsella is included in the ARTG for pelvic floor muscle strengthening in the treatment of specified genitourinary conditions. A clinical screening is completed before treatment because it is not suitable for everyone.
What Emsella actually does
A pelvic floor workout—while you sit
The chair uses HIFEM technology to repeatedly contract the pelvic floor muscles—approximately 11,200 times during a 28-minute session. This provides consistent muscle activation without you having to perform each contraction yourself.
You may feel tingling and strong, rhythmic contractions. Jo adjusts the intensity with you throughout the session, and it can be reduced or stopped at any time.
Talk with Jo about your symptoms →Sit in the correct position
Jo helps position you on the chair so the treatment targets the pelvic floor muscles.
Set the intensity together
The intensity is increased gradually to a strong but comfortable level that suits you.
Finish and return to your day
The session takes approximately 28 minutes, with no expected recovery time afterwards.
More confidence in everyday life
Laugh. Walk. Exercise.
Feel like yourself.
Pelvic floor symptoms can affect exercise, social plans, intimacy and confidence. Treatment begins with listening to what is happening for you.

Questions
Frequently asked
Do I stay fully clothed?
Yes. You remain fully clothed and sit on the Emsella chair for the session. Suitable clothing will be discussed before your appointment.
Does treatment hurt?
You may feel strong pelvic floor contractions and tingling. Intensity is adjusted to comfort, and treatment should be stopped if you experience pain or excessive heat.
How many sessions will I need?
A commonly recommended course is six sessions, although your plan should reflect your clinical screening, symptoms and response.
Can everyone use Emsella?
No. Electronic or metal implants and pregnancy are important exclusions, and some health or surgical histories require further advice or clearance.
When might I notice a change?
Some people report changes during the treatment course, while others notice a more gradual response. There is no guaranteed timeframe or outcome.
Will I still need pelvic floor exercises?
Emsella can support pelvic floor muscle strengthening, but it does not replace a complete continence or pelvic health plan. Individual advice may include exercises, bladder or bowel strategies, lifestyle changes, medical review or pelvic health physiotherapy.
Is Emsella only for women?
No. Suitable men may also use Emsella, including as part of pelvic floor strengthening following radical prostatectomy or for certain sexual function concerns.
Do I need a referral?
You can enquire directly. Depending on your symptoms, surgery or medical history, we may recommend GP, specialist or surgeon review before commencing.
