Beyond Kegels: Advanced Solutions for Pelvic Floor Weakness

When discussing pelvic health, Kegels have long been the buzzword. And while they have undeniably been a significant part of pelvic floor strengthening exercises, we are now entering an era where advanced solutions are reshaping the narrative. One such groundbreaking solution is the Emsella chair. This article will illuminate how Emsella is surpassing traditional methods, offering individuals an efficient and transformative approach to pelvic floor therapy.

When Its Time For Kegels

Decoding Pelvic Floor Weakness

The pelvic floor—a complex tapestry of muscles, tissues, and ligaments—serves as the foundation for core body functions. From supporting organs to assisting in bladder control, its importance is vast. Weakness or dysfunction in these muscles can lead to:

  1. Urinary and fecal incontinence
  2. Reduced sensation during intimate moments
  3. Lower back pain
  4. Pelvic organ prolapse

 

Contributing factors to this weakness include childbirth, surgeries, aging, strenuous physical activities, and certain medical conditions.

Traditional Methods: The Reign of Kegels

Introduced by Dr. Arnold Kegel in the late 1940s, Kegel exercises involve contracting and relaxing the pelvic floor muscles. They’ve been a go-to recommendation for strengthening the pelvic region.

Pros:

  • Non-invasive
  • No equipment needed
  • Can be done anywhere

Cons:

  • Requires consistent practice
  • Can be difficult to ensure correct technique
  • Slow to see noticeable results

Emsella: The Game-Changer

While Kegels have had their moment in the spotlight, Emsella is paving a new path for pelvic health. Utilizing High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology, the Emsella chair sends electromagnetic waves into the pelvic region, prompting powerful muscle contractions.

Advantages of Emsella:

  1. Efficiency: A single session induces thousands of muscle contractions, akin to performing an enormous number of Kegels.
  2. Comfort: The treatment is non-invasive. One simply sits on the chair, fully clothed.
  3. Efficacy: Many users report a significant reduction in pelvic symptoms after just a few sessions.
  4. FDA-Approved: Ensuring patient safety and efficacy of the treatment.
