Want to go from peeing yourself when you laugh or sneeze to feeling confident to laugh out loud and even exercise?
The Emsella Chair is designed for individuals facing pelvic health issues such as Incontinence and Sexual Dysfunction. It's important to note that it's not just for incontinence but also aims to improve sexual health. The Emsella Chair boosts the performance and activity of the pelvic floor muscles, alongside your individualised training program to help you achieve results faster.
At The Wellness Edge, we are delighted to bring the BTL Emsella chair to the residents of Dubbo and the greater community of Central West NSW.
Why choose BTL Emsella?
EMSELLA offers a pain-free and non-invasive therapy designed to strengthen the muscles of the pelvic floor. This action is similar to doing 11,200 kegel exercises, but with far more intensity, less effort, and involves sitting on the Emsella chair for 28 minutes.
How does it work?
EMSELLA uses HIFEM energy to cause deep and intense pelvic-floor muscle contractions, helping incontinent patients regain their confidence. By providing contractions that are stronger than what you can achieve with pelvic floor training alone, you can see results much faster. HIFEM stimulates the entire pelvic floor area and helps with restoring neuromuscular control.
Common Signs of Pelvic Floor Weakness
- Loss of control over bladder function.
- Leaking urine involuntarily during activities like exercise, sneezing or coughing.
- Involuntary release of flatulence.
- Persistent and frequent urges to use the toilet.
- Pelvic area pain.
- Challenges in fully emptying the bladder or bowel.
- Discomfort or pain experienced during sexual intercourse.
- In women, the sensation of a bulge in the vagina or a feeling of heaviness, discomfort, pulling, dragging, or dropping in that area.
- In men, a bulge in the rectum or a sensation of needing to empty the bowels without an actual need.

Types of Incontinence
There are several types of urinary incontinence, but the most common are:
Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI): SUI is the involuntary loss of urine as a result of increased intra-abdominal pressure due to effort or exertion (such as sneezing, coughing, laughing, exercising). SUI is associated with weakness in the pelvic floor muscles, impeding their ability to fully close the urethra under periods of increased pressure.
Urge Urinary Incontinence: This involves experiencing a sudden and intense urge to urinate regularly. Urge urinary incontinence is usually related to weak pelvic floor muscles which make it difficult for the muscles to hold on as longPhysiological transformations can contribute to the onset of urinary incontinence. Factors such as vaginal childbirth, menopause, radical prostatectomy, and aging can lead to the deconditioning of pelvic floor muscles.

Emsella Funding Available in Australia
The Continence Aids Payment Scheme (CAPS) is an Australian Government scheme that provides a payment to assist eligible people who have permanent and severe incontinence to meet some of the cost of their continence products. Individuals on this scheme can use some of their funding for Emsella treatments. Learn more about this funding opportunity here.
We are pleased to be able to provide this service to the people of Dubbo and surrounding areas of the Orana Region.
Is This Procedure Safe?
The energy released during your treatment possesses the following characteristics:
- Non-ionising: It lacks sufficient energy to ionise molecules or impact cellular structure.
- Non-radiating: It produces no radiation.
- Non-thermal: It generates no heat energy.
- Non-disruptive to sensory nerves: Specifically designed to stimulate motor neurons.
What about the fellas?
Radical prostatectomy is the gold standard treatment for prostate cancer in Australia. However, this operation can result in urinary incontinence in men. The good news is, Emsella is effective for male urinary incontinence, particularly stress and urge incontinence. Men also experience benefits such as enhanced urinary control, improved erectile function, improved chronic pelvic pain etc.
