Improving Pelvic Strength and Intimate Wellness Without Surgery

Many people experience changes in pelvic strength and intimate wellness over time, especially after aging, hormonal fluctuations, or pregnancy. 

At Body By Goldman in Wellington, Florida, Alexander Goldman, MD, and our skilled team offer nonsurgical treatments like EMSELLA® to help women strengthen their pelvic floor and boost their confidence without surgery or downtime.

Here, we discuss how pelvic floor weakness happens and why this unique noninvasive treatment is so popular today.

Why the pelvic floor weakens

The pelvic floor can weaken due to sustained pressure (for example, during pregnancy), but other causes can contribute, including hormonal shifts and age-related muscle changes.

When the pelvic floor muscles weaken or stretch excessively, they may struggle to properly support the bladder, uterus, and other pelvic organs. This can contribute to issues like urinary leakage, reduced core muscle stability, and persistent feelings of pressure or heaviness in the pelvis.

In severe cases, weakened pelvic floor muscles can contribute to pelvic organ prolapse, in which organs shift out of their normal position and sink downward. This can cause problems with urination and intimacy, as well as serious daily discomfort.

How EMSELLA helps

EMSELLA uses high-intensity electromagnetic energy to stimulate thousands of supramaximal pelvic floor muscle contractions during a single session. 

Essentially, sitting on the EMSELLA chair for a short session can deliver the effects of thousands of Kegels in a more targeted, stronger way. This helps to retrain and strengthen your muscles over time.Most patients schedule a series of six 30-minute sessions, spaced over three weeks.

This simple regimen is completely noninvasive, and you remain fully clothed throughout. Most patients find it comfortable, with effects similar to a heavy pelvic floor workout (some soreness afterward, but not pain).

After a course of EMSELLA treatments, patients enjoy a significant improvement in pelvic strength, which can reduce the risk of complications like pelvic organ prolapse later. But, for many, the key benefits are those that directly affect their self-esteem and confidence day to day.

Supporting intimate wellness and confidence

In addition to strengthening pelvic muscles, EMSELLA may also help improve overall intimate wellness for some patients. Stronger pelvic floor muscles can support better circulation, enhanced muscle control, and increased comfort and confidence during intimacy.

Another effect of stronger pelvic floor muscles is improved control over urination — in fact, studies show that patients experience an average 68% improvement in urinary incontinence symptoms after six sessions. 

Additional studies show that over 80% of patients experienced dramatic symptom reduction, with the majority using significantly less absorbent pads.

Feeling anxious or worried about pelvic floor dysfunction can affect your mental and physical wellness over time. Pelvic floor muscle weakness is a treatable challenge, and EMSELLA can be a powerful shortcut that you can access easily at Body By Goldman.
