Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation Q&A

What is pelvic floor rehabilitation?

Pelvic floor weakness can affect your bladder control, causing unexpected urine leaks (incontinence) that can disrupt your day and negatively affect your self-confidence.

Sports Chiro & Rehab offers pelvic floor rehabilitation to restore strength and stability in the pelvic floor muscles in adult women and men.

The skilled team uses the advanced, FDA-approved Emsella® technology to rebuild muscle tone and strength without the need for incisions or downtime. The noninvasive, painless treatment is a safe and effective pelvic floor rehabilitation method that provides lasting results for better bladder control.

When should I consider pelvic floor rehabilitation?

Pelvic floor weakness can develop in men and women from causes like:

  • Aging
  • Obesity
  • Poor posture
  • Pelvic injuries
  • Nerve damage
  • Chronic coughing
  • Straining due to chronic constipation

In women, pelvic floor weakness is a common side effect of a hysterectomy, pregnancy and childbirth, and hormonal changes related to menopause.

In men, surgery to treat prostate cancer can increase factors for pelvic floor weakness if the procedure damages pelvic muscles or nerves.

Schedule a consultation at Sports Chiro & Rehab to find out if you’re a candidate for pelvic floor rehabilitation if you have mild to moderate incontinence, pelvic heaviness or pain, or pain with intercourse.

What can I expect during pelvic floor rehabilitation?

Pelvic floor rehabilitation with Emsella is available in-office. During the noninvasive procedure, you remain clothed and seated comfortably on the treatment chair.

The Emsella chair uses electromagnetic energy to deliver thousands of pelvic muscle contractions in a single session. Each contraction helps to strengthen and stabilize the muscles to reduce the frequency and severity of incontinence issues.

Typically, a series of Emsella sessions is needed to achieve desired results. Many people notice an improvement in their bladder control and pelvic strength after 2-3 sessions; however, it can take several weeks after your final session to experience optimal benefits of pelvic floor rehabilitation with Emsella.

You can maintain your pelvic floor rehabilitation results in the long term by maintaining a healthy weight, exercising, and staying hydrated. The team monitors your treatment progress and discusses your options for maintenance sessions with Emsella if needed.
