Emsella treats urinary incontinence and pelvic floor weakness without surgery or medication. You sit on the chair fully clothed for 28 minutes while electromagnetic pulses contract the pelvic floor around 11,000 times. That is far more work than anyone gets through doing kegels, and it reaches muscles most people cannot consciously find.
Nobody should have to sit through a consultation to learn the price. The ranges below are typical for the Boston area. Ask for our exact pricing with the short form and we will send it the same business day, no appointment required.
Typical ranges are what Boston-area providers commonly charge, not a quote from us. Our own pricing is confirmed in writing when you ask below or at your free consultation.

You stay dressed and sit on the chair for 28 minutes. Electromagnetic pulses pass through clothing and skin into the pelvic floor, contracting the whole muscle group thousands of times. A kegel recruits whichever fibres you can consciously reach, which for most people is a fraction of the floor and often the wrong fraction. The device does not depend on that. It contracts everything, including the deep stabilisers that are hardest to isolate, and the repetition is what restores the neuromuscular control behind bladder function.
Meet with Dr. Bromberg's team. We assess your goals, medical history, and determine if Emsella is right for you.
Sit comfortably on the Emsella chair, fully clothed. 28 minutes of electromagnetic pelvic floor stimulation.
Zero downtime. Return to all normal activities immediately. Some patients describe mild soreness like after a good workout.
Most patients notice improvement within 2-3 sessions. Optimal results after the full 6-session protocol.
Emsella uses High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to deliver approximately 11,200 supramaximal pelvic floor contractions in a single 28-minute session. The electromagnetic field, generated at approximately 2.5 Tesla, penetrates the pelvic floor complex and directly stimulates the motor neurons innervating the pubococcygeus, iliococcygeus, coccygeus, and associated muscles, engaging the entire pelvic floor simultaneously.
"Supramaximal" is a clinical term meaning the contraction intensity exceeds what the patient could ever achieve through voluntary effort. Manual kegel exercises recruit only a subset of pelvic floor muscles at 30-40% of maximum force. Emsella recruits nearly 100% of available motor units at maximum contractile intensity, forcing comprehensive adaptation across the entire pelvic floor architecture. Over a standard six-session protocol, this results in measurable muscle hypertrophy, restored neuromuscular control, and clinically significant improvements in continence.

You sit on the chair fully clothed. There is nothing to undress for, no probe, and nothing inserted. The chair generates a focused electromagnetic field that contracts the whole pelvic floor, around 11,000 times over 28 minutes.
Patients describe the sensation as a strong tingling or vibration with a pulling feeling deep in the pelvis. It is not painful. The intensity is set to your tolerance and raised as you adapt. You can read, work on your phone, or close your eyes.
When it stops you stand up and leave. No recovery, no restrictions. Many patients notice their voluntary control improving over the course, because the contractions re-educate the nerve pathways as well as building the muscle.

Emsella is FDA-cleared for both men and women. We treat post-prostate surgery incontinence, postpartum pelvic floor weakness, and age-related pelvic health.
"After six Emsella sessions, I can laugh, sneeze, and exercise without worrying. It genuinely changed my daily life. I wish I had done it sooner."
Stress incontinence, age 58
"Emsella is a life changer. It gave me more confidence, and I don't feel like I have to prepare for an emergency every time I leave the house."
Bladder leakage, age 52
"I had increasing incontinence after prostate treatment, and medication wasn't helping. After Emsella, my muscles are much stronger. I would recommend it to anyone."
Post-prostate incontinence, age 64
* Individual results may vary. Testimonials reflect personal experiences.
You sit fully clothed on a chair that generates a focused electromagnetic field. The field contracts the entire pelvic floor, including the deep layers that kegels cannot reach, around 11,000 times in a 28-minute session. The contractions are stronger than anything you could produce on purpose, and over a course they rebuild the muscle and retrain the nerve pathways behind bladder control.
The standard course is six sessions, usually twice a week over about three weeks. The spacing matters: the muscle needs the days between sessions to adapt. Results keep building for several weeks after the final session.
No and no. You stay fully clothed and sit on the chair. The sensation is a strong tingling or vibration with a deep pulling feeling. It is not painful, and the intensity is set to what you are comfortable with.
Many patients notice fewer leaks or more warning before urgency after the first two or three sessions. The fullest benefit usually settles in during the weeks after the course finishes, so judging it at the last session undersells it.
Weakness-driven incontinence of any kind: stress leakage with laughing, coughing or exercise; urge and overactive bladder symptoms; the mixed picture most people actually have. It is used after childbirth, through menopause, and by men after prostate surgery. It is also for anyone who has done kegels faithfully and seen no change, because the problem was never discipline.
Anyone with a pacemaker, implanted defibrillator, neurostimulator, metal implants in the pelvis or hips, or who is pregnant. Copper IUDs need to be discussed. If your pelvic floor problem is tightness or pain rather than weakness, the right treatment is pelvic floor physical therapy and we will refer you rather than treat you.
Yes. Men have the same pelvic floor and it weakens the same way, most often after prostate surgery. The treatment is identical: sit on the chair, fully clothed, 28 minutes. Many men come to us after struggling with kegels on their own.
Generally not. It is worth asking your carrier directly, since pelvic floor treatment for incontinence is sometimes handled differently from cosmetic procedures. We give you the price in writing at the consultation, and the consultation is free.
Often that is the best plan. Emsella builds strength and re-educates the muscle quickly; physical therapy addresses coordination, tension and the movement patterns that keep the improvement. If your case needs both, you will hear that from us rather than a pitch for the one we offer.
Many patients hold their results for a year or more. Some choose a top-up session or two a year. It depends on age, hormonal status and how long the weakness had been there, and we will give you an honest read at your follow-up rather than book you into a standing schedule.
