HM San Francisco has taken a decisive step in improving treatment for urinary incontinence and other pelvic floor disorders by introducing the innovative EMSELLA chair. This cutting-edge technology provides a practical, non-invasive and comfortable solution to strengthen pelvic floor muscles, significantly improving patients’ quality of life. Its effectiveness is scientifically proven, with studies demonstrating notable improvements in quality of life.
Urinary incontinence affects both men and women of all ages, significantly impacting daily life. Factors such as ageing, pregnancy and childbirth, previous surgeries, obesity or certain medical conditions can contribute to pelvic floor weakness, leading to problems including urine leakage, sexual dysfunction and prolapse.
HM San Francisco has invested in EMSELLA technology to address this issue effectively – a solution that strengthens pelvic floor muscles through high-intensity electromagnetic pulses. Each 30-minute session is equivalent to performing 11,200 Kegel exercises without requiring the patient to undress or experience discomfort. Typically, six sessions are recommended, spaced at least 48 hours apart, with effects lasting six to twelve months (maintenance sessions may be required).Specialists at the Centro Ginecológico de HM San Francisco and urologists at HM Regla can now offer this innovative treatment, personalised to each patient’s condition.
Dr Jesús Saz, Medical Director of HM Hospitales in León, emphasises “the importance of continuous technological innovation as the only way to achieve healthcare excellence, allowing our patients to benefit from medical advancements like EMSELLA – undoubtedly a breakthrough for those suffering urinary incontinence and pelvic floor disorders.”
EMSELLA is recommended for Women with urinary incontinence (stress, urge or mixed), Sexual dysfunction, Prolapse, Postpartum pelvic floor weakness, and Men with post-prostate surgery incontinence (including benign prostatic hyperplasia or radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer).
