The pelvic floor is a group of muscles located at the base of the pelvis. These muscles help support the bladder and other pelvic structures and play an important role in urinary control, stability, and sexual function.
Like other muscles in the body, pelvic floor muscles can become weak or function less effectively.
What Can Contribute to Pelvic Floor Weakness?
- Pregnancy and childbirth
- Aging
- Menopause and hormonal changes
- Pelvic or prostate procedures
- Repetitive straining
- Chronic coughing
- Changes in body weight
- Physical deconditioning
- Other medical conditions affecting pelvic function
Signs Your Pelvic Floor May Need Attention
Symptoms may include urinary leakage, difficulty controlling urgency, reduced pelvic strength, leakage during exercise, changes in sexual function, or difficulty confidently returning to certain activities.
Strengthening the Pelvic Floor
Traditional pelvic floor exercises can be helpful, but correctly identifying and consistently activating these muscles can be challenging for some people.
EMSELLA® provides non-invasive stimulation of the pelvic floor muscles while you remain seated and fully clothed.
Start With an Evaluation
Not every pelvic symptom is caused by muscle weakness, and strengthening is not appropriate for every pelvic floor condition. Our team will review your symptoms and health history to determine whether EMSELLA is an appropriate option or whether additional evaluation may be recommended.
