Urinary incontinence—uncontrolled leakage of urine—is far more common than most people realize. It affects millions of women and men worldwide, impacting confidence, daily routines, and overall quality of life. Whether it’s occasional leaks during exercise or frequent urges disrupting your day, urinary incontinence can feel isolating and frustrating.
But it doesn’t have to be permanent. At Advanced Body and Laser Center (ABLC), we offer Emsella, a breakthrough, non-invasive treatment that targets one of the most common causes of urinary incontinence: weak pelvic floor muscles. With no surgery, no downtime, and no embarrassment, Emsella helps restore control, confidence, and comfort.
This blog explains what urinary incontinence is, the main causes behind it, and how Emsella at ABLC can help you reclaim your bladder health naturally.
Urinary incontinence is the loss of bladder control, resulting in unwanted leaks or sudden urges to urinate. While it can happen at any age, it’s more common in women after childbirth, during menopause, and as part of the natural aging process. Men can also experience it, especially after prostate surgery or with age-related pelvic floor weakening.
Although it’s rarely a sign of a serious medical condition, urinary incontinence can be a major disruption to daily life—affecting social activities, exercise, intimacy, and self-esteem.
Urinary incontinence isn’t one-size-fits-all. Understanding which type you have helps determine the best treatment approach.
Emsella at ABLC is especially effective for stress, urge, and mixed incontinence—three of the most common types.
Urinary incontinence typically stems from weakened or poorly functioning pelvic floor muscles. These muscles form a supportive “hammock” under the bladder, uterus, and rectum. When they lose strength or coordination, it becomes harder to control urination.
Pregnancy and vaginal delivery stretch and strain the pelvic floor, sometimes leading to long-term weakness or nerve damage that affects bladder control.
Declining estrogen levels during menopause can thin the tissues of the urinary tract and weaken the pelvic floor, making leaks more likely.
As we age, muscles naturally lose tone and elasticity—including the pelvic floor muscles. This can lead to increased bladder leakage or urgency.
In men, urinary incontinence can occur after prostate surgery due to changes in pelvic support structures.
Conditions that create repeated pressure on the abdomen, like chronic coughing or strenuous lifting, can gradually weaken pelvic floor muscles.
Excess weight adds pressure to the bladder and pelvic floor, increasing the risk of stress incontinence.
In some cases, conditions like multiple sclerosis or spinal cord injuries can affect the nerves controlling the bladder.
While lifestyle changes like pelvic floor exercises, weight management, and bladder training can help, they’re often not enough for long-term improvement. That’s where Emsella comes in.
Emsella is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment that directly addresses one of the root causes of urinary incontinence: weak pelvic floor muscles.
Instead of surgery or medication, Emsella uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to stimulate deep, powerful contractions of the pelvic floor muscles—similar to Kegels, but far more effective.
In fact, just one 28-minute session on the Emsella chair is the equivalent of over 11,000 Kegel exercises—all while you sit fully clothed and relaxed.
During an Emsella session at ABLC, you simply sit in a specially designed chair. The device emits focused electromagnetic energy to the pelvic floor, inducing supramaximal contractions.
These intense contractions:
Most patients feel a gentle tingling or pulsing sensation during treatment. There’s no pain, no needles, and no downtime. After your session, you can return to your normal activities immediately.
Emsella is designed for anyone struggling with:
Some patients also notice improved intimate wellness thanks to stronger pelvic muscles and increased circulation in the pelvic area.
At ABLC, we know urinary incontinence is a sensitive topic. That’s why we provide a discreet, supportive environment where you can discuss your concerns openly with experienced professionals.
Your journey begins with a one-on-one consultation with one of our ABLC providers. We’ll review your health history, assess your pelvic floor strength, and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
During each 28-minute session, you’ll remain fully clothed while sitting on the Emsella chair. The device delivers thousands of pelvic floor contractions—completely hands-free. Most patients describe the sensation as mild vibrations or tapping.
There’s no downtime or special aftercare required. You can go right back to your daily routine immediately after treatment. Some patients notice improvements after just one session, but most see the best results after completing the recommended six-session series (two sessions per week for three weeks).
Benefits continue to improve in the weeks following your final session as pelvic muscles grow stronger and better coordinated. Maintenance treatments every few months can help extend your results.
At Advanced Body and Laser Center, we’re dedicated to combining cutting-edge technology with compassionate care. Here’s what sets us apart:
