Due to its safe yet effective technology, anyone who wants to treat urinary incontinence is a great candidate for the Emsella chair. However, there are a few factors that may prevent you from receiving treatment.
If you have a metal implant in your body or a copper IUD, we unfortunately cannot treat you. Since Emsella uses high intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy to treat your muscles, the currents will naturally be attracted to any metal present. This is also why we do not allow patients to be treated while wearing jeans, as any metal buttons or zippers are a danger to the patient.
We also cannot treat anyone who has had a complete organ prolapse. The intensity of the contractions is too strong for any nearby tissue damage. If you have questions about whether you qualify, let us know and we can answer them for you. We can even schedule your first session for the Emsella if you are an ideal candidate.
