What is the pelvic floor?
The pelvic floor consists of a group of muscles that support the pelvic organs and assist in a variety of bodily functions. These muscles stretch from the front of your pelvis all the way back to the tailbone. Considered a part of the core muscle group, the pelvic floor helps you control your bowels and bladder. For women, the pelvic floor muscles include the ring of muscles in the outer third of the vagina. For men, it includes the muscles at the base of the penis. Sexual function is at its peak when these muscles are strong.
Other important pelvic floor functions include:
- Protects the bladder, uterus, prostate, and rectum.
- Control of urine flow.
- Control of bowel movements.
- Supports the uterus and vagina to prevent prolapse of these organs.
Am I a good candidate for pelvic floor therapy?
Vaginal deliveries and surgical procedures can injure and weaken the pelvic floor. As we get older, the pelvic floor muscles can weaken. Weak pelvic floor muscles can lead to a variety of health concerns that impede the activities we love most.
So, if you’ve had injury or weakening of your pelvic floor and you are experiencing any bothersome symptoms, you are a candidate for pelvic floor therapy in Oak Ridge with Emsella.
Our experts want to assure you that pelvic floor dysfunction is nothing to be embarrassed about! We can treat these issues with pelvic floor therapy.
Pelvic floor therapy involves a series of exercises and treatments to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles and help you regain control. Signs that you might be a good candidate for pelvic floor therapy include:
- Leaking urine when you laugh, cough, or sneeze
- Experiencing discomfort with intercourse
- Having difficulty completely emptying your bladder
- Feeling unable to achieve an orgasm
- Straining during bowel movements
- Anal incontinence or leakage
- Feeling pain or discomfort in your pelvis
At Shea Aesthetic Clinic, our experts understand the toll pelvic floor dysfunction can have on both your physical and emotional health. If you have any of the symptoms above, we recommend Emsella to help overcome the symptoms associated with pelvic floor dysfunction and improve your quality of life.
Emsella Pelvic Floor Therapy
Emsella is a noninvasive pelvic floor therapy that uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy to stimulate muscle contractions. These contractions mimic Kegel exercises to restore pelvic floor muscle strength.
During each Emsella treatment session, you sit fully clothed on the Emsella chair as it delivers HIFEM energy to your pelvic floor. You will feel tingling muscle contractions throughout the duration of your 30-minute session. Emsella offers a pain-free pelvic floor treatment experience. We can also adjust the device’s intensity to ensure your comfort and to address your specific health needs.
Most patients begin to see noticeable improvements in pelvic floor dysfunction by about 2 weeks after their first treatment. For optimal results, our experts recommend a series of six 30-minute treatments that occur twice a week for 3 weeks. Your peak results will take place about by 2 weeks after the last session of this treatment series. Most patients schedule follow-up enhancement treatment sessions once every 1-3 months.
