Pregnancy and childbirth place enormous stress on your pelvic floor muscles. Many new mothers experience bladder leakage, pelvic heaviness, or reduced sensation that can persist for months or years. Emsella helps rebuild the foundation your body needs.
During treatment, you sit fully clothed on the Emsella chair. The device uses High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to stimulate deep pelvic floor muscles with thousands of supramaximal contractions per session. These contractions re-educate and strengthen weakened pelvic floor muscles, restoring neuromuscular control. Unlike voluntary kegel exercises — which only activate a subset of pelvic floor muscles — Emsella engages the entire pelvic floor musculature comprehensively.
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.
Vaginal delivery places extraordinary mechanical stress on the pelvic floor — the muscles, nerves, and connective tissue that support the pelvic organs must stretch to accommodate passage of the infant, and this stretching often causes measurable injury. Studies estimate that up to 80% of vaginal deliveries involve some degree of levator ani injury, ranging from muscle fiber tearing to pudendal nerve stretch or compression. Even uncomplicated deliveries cause temporary denervation (nerve damage) to portions of the pelvic floor, and cesarean deliveries, while sparing the pelvic floor from direct trauma, still involve nine months of pregnancy-related pelvic floor loading and hormonal tissue changes. The result is a postpartum pelvic floor where many muscle fibers are physically intact but neurologically disconnected — the nerve endings that once triggered their contraction have been stretched, compressed, or partially torn during delivery. Voluntary kegel exercises are often ineffective in this state because the patient literally cannot send a signal to the disconnected fibers. Emsella's HIFEM directly addresses this neuromuscular disconnect. By generating an electromagnetic field that acts on motor neurons independently of the voluntary nervous system, Emsella forces contractions in muscle fibers that the patient cannot yet reach through intentional effort. This forced activation serves a dual purpose: it maintains muscle fiber viability during the period of nerve recovery (preventing the atrophy that would otherwise occur in denervated tissue), and it actively promotes nerve regeneration by providing the electrical stimulation patterns that guide axonal regrowth toward the target muscle fibers. Over the six-session protocol, the combination of maintained muscle mass and progressive neural reconnection restores the functional integrity of the postpartum pelvic floor — rebuilding the support structure that pregnancy and delivery disrupted.

"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.
Most providers recommend waiting until cleared by your OB/GYN, typically 6-8 weeks postpartum. Dr. Bromberg evaluates each patient individually.
Yes. By strengthening the pelvic floor muscles weakened during pregnancy and delivery, Emsella helps restore bladder control. Most patients see improvement within a few sessions.
Yes! The Core-to-Floor combination is ideal for postpartum recovery — EMSculpt NEO rebuilds your abs and core while Emsella restores your pelvic floor.
Emsella is a localized treatment with no systemic effects. Consult your OB/GYN for personalized guidance.
The standard protocol is six sessions over three weeks. Some patients benefit from additional sessions depending on the severity of pelvic floor weakness.
