The Challenge
Pelvic Floor Weakness Affects Your Entire Life
A Common Concern for Men and Women
Pelvic floor weakness is more common than most people realize. For women, pregnancy, childbirth, hormonal changes, and aging can weaken these critical muscles, leading to stress urinary incontinence, urgency, and diminished intimate satisfaction. For men, prostate surgery, aging, and chronic health conditions can compromise pelvic floor integrity, contributing to urinary leakage, reduced sexual performance, and erectile difficulties. Despite its prevalence, many patients in Augusta suffer in silence because they assume surgery or lifelong pad use are their only options.
Emsella at Ivy Collaborative Healthcare delivers a revolutionary alternative. Using high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology, the BTL Emsella chair induces 11,200 supramaximal pelvic floor contractions in a single 28-minute session, the equivalent of thousands of perfect Kegel exercises. You remain fully clothed throughout the treatment. There is no preparation, no discomfort, and no recovery time. Clinical studies demonstrate a 95% patient satisfaction rate and significant improvements in bladder control, intimate wellness, and overall quality of life for both women and men.
Understanding Your Treatment
What Is Emsella?
FDA-Cleared HIFEM Pelvic Floor Technology
Emsella is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment that uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. Developed by BTL, the Emsella chair generates a powerful electromagnetic field that penetrates deep into the pelvic floor, triggering supramaximal muscle contractions that are far more intense than what voluntary Kegel exercises can achieve. Each 28-minute session delivers approximately 11,200 contractions, retraining and rebuilding the entire pelvic floor musculature.
The HIFEM technology works by depolarizing motor neurons in the pelvic region, causing the muscles to contract and release in rapid succession. This process strengthens weakened muscle fibers, restores neuromuscular control, and improves the supportive function of the pelvic floor. Emsella is FDA-cleared for the treatment of urinary incontinence in both women and men, and emerging clinical evidence supports its effectiveness for improving erectile function through enhanced pelvic floor strength and blood flow.

Clinically Proven Safety
Emsella has an excellent safety profile established through multiple peer-reviewed clinical studies. The HIFEM technology is FDA-cleared and has been used in thousands of treatments worldwide with no serious adverse events reported.

These sensations are not painful and subside immediately after treatment. Some patients describe feeling mild muscle soreness in the pelvic area for a day or two following their first session, similar to the feeling after a workout.
Rare or minimal side effects: Temporary muscle soreness, mild tingling that resolves within hours, and occasional temporary increase in urinary frequency as muscles re-engage. No serious complications have been documented in published clinical trials.

Common Questions
Emsella FAQ
Your Questions Answered
01 What is Emsella?
EmSella is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive pelvic floor therapy that uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. You sit fully clothed on the EmSella chair while it delivers approximately 11,200 supramaximal contractions in a single 28-minute session.
02 How does Emsella work?
The EmSella chair generates a focused electromagnetic field that penetrates the pelvic floor, triggering deep muscle contractions far more intense than voluntary Kegel exercises. These supramaximal contractions retrain and rebuild the pelvic floor musculature, improving bladder control, pelvic support, and intimate wellness.
03 How many Emsella sessions are needed?
The standard EmSella protocol involves 6 sessions scheduled twice per week over 3 weeks. Most patients notice improvement after 2-3 sessions, with full results developing 2-4 weeks after the final treatment. Periodic maintenance sessions may be recommended to sustain results.
04 Is Emsella painful?
No. Most patients describe the sensation as a strong tingling and involuntary muscle contractions in the pelvic area. The treatment is not painful. You remain comfortably seated and fully clothed throughout the entire 28-minute session.
05 Can men use Emsella?
Absolutely. EmSella is FDA-cleared for both men and women. For men, it addresses urinary incontinence, particularly after prostate surgery, and clinical evidence supports its effectiveness in improving erectile function through pelvic floor strengthening and enhanced blood flow.
06 Does Emsella help with erectile dysfunction?
Yes. Emerging clinical research shows that HIFEM pelvic floor stimulation can improve erectile function by strengthening the muscles responsible for maintaining blood flow and rigidity. Studies have documented improvements in erectile function, orgasmic response, and ejaculatory strength in male patients.
07 How much does Emsella cost?
Individual EmSella sessions typically range from $250 to $350, with the complete 6-session protocol ranging from $1,200 to $1,800. Package discounts may be available. Schedule a consultation at Ivy Collaborative Healthcare for a personalized quote.
08 What is the difference between Emsella and Kegels?
While Kegel exercises rely on voluntary muscle contractions that many people perform incorrectly, EmSella uses electromagnetic technology to deliver 11,200 supramaximal contractions per session, engaging the entire pelvic floor with perfect form and intensity that voluntary exercises cannot match. Clinical studies show EmSella produces significantly faster and more consistent results.
