Non-invasive treatment for urinary incontinence with BTL Emsella

Urinary incontinence is an embarrassing and often uncomfortable condition that people usually avoid talking about even though it’s common. According to studies, approximately one-third of women experience some level of urinary incontinence. There are many contributing factors to urinary incontinence, yet one thing remains consistent – it can significantly impact your quality of life. Fortunately, there has been a breakthrough in the non-invasive treatment of urinary incontinence. BTL Emsella treatment from Avante Medical Center, LLC in Anchorage, Alaska, is an FDA-approved method that can help strengthen pelvic floor muscles to prevent the unintentional release of urine.

About Urinary Incontinence

Urinary incontinence is the accidental or unintentional release of urine from the bladder. The bladder relies on the pelvic floor muscles to hold urine and release it when necessary. Over time, as these muscles weaken, whether due to age, pregnancy, or other factors, the muscles may allow the release of urine without warning. Often, these unintentional releases occur during moments of stress, such as laughing, jumping, coughing, or sneezing.

There are three main types of urinary incontinence:

• Stress incontinence: urine leaks during moments of stress, such as laughing, jumping, coughing, or sneezing.
• Urge: an intense urge to urinate that leads to involuntary leakage
• Mixed incontinence: is a combination of the two

What causes urinary incontinence?

Urinary incontinence can occur because of an underlying medical problem such as diabetes but can also occur due to changes that occur with pregnancy or menopause. Some of the risk factors for urinary incontinence include:

• Age
• Obesity
• Family History
• Smoking
• Diabetes

Mechanism of Action: BTL EMSELLA is the HIFEM®

BTL Emsella is a revolutionary treatment for urinary incontinence that uses electromagnetic energy at high frequency to stimulate contraction of the pelvic floor muscles to strengthen them and allow them to control the bladder better.

It’s a simple, in-office procedure that takes less than 30 minutes. During treatment, patients will sit fully clothed in a special chair while the machine goes to work, providing pelvic floor contractions. Just one BTL Emsella session is equivalent to doing thousands of Kegel exercises. The recommended series of Emsella treatments is six sessions, two times per week.

Benefits of BTL EMSELLA

• Non-invasive / No Recovery
• Remain fully clothed during the treatment.
• Improves bladder and pelvic muscle control without the need to do Kegels regularly.
• It helps both men and women who have urine leakage or bowel control.
• Improves sexual health – strengthening the pelvic floor muscles gives improved sexual satisfaction for women and helps to improve erectile dysfunction for men.
• You can relax during the pain-free, 28-minute session
• It can produce results after just a single session and will typically continue improving over the next few weeks.

Are you a suitable candidate for BTL EMSELLA?

Are you curious if you are one of the over 200 million people worldwide affected by urinary incontinence?

• Are you embarrassed by accidental urine leakage when coughing, sneezing, or exercising?
• Do you have the frequent urge to urinate?
• Is accidental urination negatively affecting your intimate life?

What to expect during treatment?

We recommend wearing loose-fitting clothing so you can achieve the best position during BTL EMSELLA Treatment. Once treatment begins, you will notice vibrations or mild tingling of the pelvic floor muscles that will progress to full contractions. The entire treatment is comfortable and pain-free. During the 28-minute session, you are free to relax or read.
