Urinary incontinence can be a significant issue, and you have decided to do something about it. You are tired of worrying about accidents and feeling like you cannot fully enjoy your day. You want to find a real solution — but you are not sure where to start.
At Revive Wellness Clinic of Oxford, we offer Emsella, one of the most effective non-invasive treatments available for urinary incontinence. Here are the answers to the questions we hear most often.
Who Is Revive Wellness Clinic?
We are a physician-owned and operated medical spa located in Oxford, Mississippi, with a second location in Starkville. What sets us apart is our commitment to patient-centered care. We take the time to understand your concerns, build a personalized treatment plan, and make sure you feel confident every step of the way. Quality over quantity, every time.
How Does Emsella Work?
One of the most common causes of urinary incontinence is weak pelvic floor muscles. When those muscles are not strong enough to support the bladder, leakage occurs. Emsella addresses this directly.
The Emsella chair emits high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy that causes powerful contractions in the pelvic floor muscles — thousands of them in a single session. The effect is similar to doing an intense pelvic floor workout, without any of the effort or complexity of performing those exercises correctly on your own.
Does Emsella Hurt?
No. Most patients describe the sensation as a mild, comfortable tingling. You will feel the treatment working, but it is not painful. Emsella is completely non-invasive and requires no anesthesia or injections.
How Long Does Each Session Take?
Each Emsella session takes 28 minutes. You sit fully clothed in the chair and relax while the treatment works. We will check you in, give you a chance to ask any questions, and check in with you after the session to see how you are feeling. Most appointments are in and out in under an hour.
Do I Need to Prepare for Treatment?
Preparation is minimal. A few things to keep in mind:
- Wear light, form-fitting clothing for best results — heavier or baggier clothes can reduce treatment effectiveness.
- Share any known health conditions during your consultation so we can ensure Emsella is the right fit for you.
- Remove all metal items before your session, including watches, phones, and credit cards.
What Is the Recovery Like?
There is no downtime with Emsella. You can return to work or normal activities immediately after your session. Many patients notice an improvement in bladder control right away, with results that can last up to a year.
Will I Need Multiple Sessions?
It depends on the individual. We typically recommend a series of six sessions for the best and most lasting results — similar to how a consistent workout routine produces better outcomes than a single gym visit. Your provider will discuss a recommended schedule based on your specific situation.
Are There Other Benefits Beyond Bladder Control?
Yes. Stronger pelvic floor muscles can also improve sexual function and sensation for both men and women. Many patients report benefits in this area as well, making Emsella a well-rounded treatment for overall pelvic health.
Can I Use Emsella If I Am Pregnant?
Emsella is not recommended during pregnancy. However, if you have already delivered and are still experiencing urinary incontinence, Emsella is a safe and effective option to consider.
