Restore Confidence, Improve Intimate Health, and Treat Incontinence with EMSELLA
Whether you're dealing with occasional leaks or more persistent symptoms, urinary incontinence is something that affects many of all walks of life. EMSELLA® offers a revolutionary, non-invasive solution to strengthen your pelvic floor and reduce male and female incontinence. This advanced treatment uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to target and stimulate the pelvic floor muscles, helping you regain control and confidence without the need for surgery or downtime. As one part of our array of intimate health treatments at 8 West Clinic, our team is thrilled about offering this comfortable, quick, and effective way to improve patients’ quality of life at our North Vancouver clinic location.
EMSELLA Pelvic Floor Muscle Therapy
EMSELLA works by delivering thousands of muscle contractions through HIFEM technology, a powerful, entirely non-invasive innovation cleared by the FDA and Health Canada. It provides rehabilitation of weak pelvic muscles and the restoration of neuromuscular control to treat urinary incontinence.
Designed specifically for the pelvic floor, each treatment session stimulates deep muscle contractions—equivalent to over 11,000 kegel exercises—to strengthen and re-educate the muscles responsible for bladder control. These contractions help improve muscle tone, increase circulation, and support improved continence, providing lasting relief from urinary incontinence.
Patients often describe the experience as a series of gentle pulses, all while remaining fully clothed and seated comfortably. With no downtime required, EMSELLA is a convenient option for those looking to enhance their pelvic health without the recovery or risks associated with surgical interventions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is a candidate for EMSELLA?
EMSELLA is ideal for individuals experiencing mild to moderate urinary incontinence or a weakened pelvic floor due to aging, childbirth, or other factors. It’s suitable for both men and women seeking a non-surgical, non-invasive treatment option. Your consultation with your treatment provider can help determine if EMSELLA is the right choice based on your needs and medical history.
How does EMSELLA work?
Pelvic floor muscles are a layer of muscles that support the pelvic organs. Strong pelvic floor muscles provide control over the bladder and bowel. When these muscles are weakened, they do not fully support the internal organs, which may lead to difficulty controlling the release of urine.
Using HIFEM, EMSELLA works to induce thousands of supramaximal pelvic floor muscle contractions in each session. These contractions re-educate and strengthen weak pelvic floor muscles, restoring neuromuscular control and improving urinary incontinence in both men and women.
What should I expect with my EMSELLA treatment?
Each session lasts around 30 minutes, during which you’ll remain fully clothed and comfortably seated in the EMSELLA chair. You may feel a tingling sensation and experience powerful contractions in your pelvic floor muscles as the HIFEM technology stimulates thousands of muscle contractions. Some patients report mild muscle soreness after treatment—similar to the feeling after a workout, but you’ll be able to resume your daily activities immediately.
How long do EMSELLA results last?
Results vary by individual, but many patients experience improvement lasting six months or longer. To maintain optimal results, periodic maintenance sessions may be recommended. Your treatment provider can guide you on the best treatment plan for long-lasting benefits.
How many sessions of EMSELLA do you need?
A total of 6 treatments are required for optimal results, performed as 2 sessions per week for 3 weeks (with a minimum of 2 days between appointments). Additional maintenance treatments may be required or desired, which can be performed after 6 months. Your specific treatment plan will be determined in your consultation with your treatment provider.
