Emsella Pelvic Floor Treatment
Emsella is an FDA-cleared, non-surgical pelvic floor treatment available in Cincinnati, Ohio — delivering supramaximal muscle contractions through HIFEM technology at intensities no voluntary exercise can match.
A Non-Surgical Pelvic Floor Treatment Backed by Clinical Research
Emsella uses BTL's patented HIFEM technology to generate thousands of pelvic floor muscle contractions in a single session — rehabilitating weakened muscle tissue and restoring the neuromuscular control that supports bladder function, postpartum recovery, and core stability. The device is FDA-cleared for the treatment of male and female urinary incontinence, and BTL's clinical research program for Emsella spans multiple peer-reviewed publications.
BODYSCULPT of Cincinnati offers Emsella as a dedicated non-surgical incontinence treatment in Ohio, operated by a BTL-certified team under the manufacturer's clinical protocols.
Pelvic Floor Issues Affect More People Than Most Realize
Urinary incontinence and pelvic floor weakness are not exclusively postpartum concerns, and they're not exclusively female ones. According to BTL's published data, 50% of women experience some form of incontinence, 59% of postpartum women show decreased pelvic floor strength, and 44% of athletes — both male and female — report pelvic floor issues. Emsella is cleared and clinically validated for both men and women.
BODYSCULPT of Cincinnati offers three condition-specific pathways under the Emsella program. Each links to a dedicated page with clinical detail, candidacy information, and what to expect from that treatment focus.
Urinary Incontinence Treatment
Emsella is FDA-cleared specifically for the treatment of urinary incontinence in men and women. Stress incontinence, urge incontinence, and mixed presentations have all been addressed in BTL's clinical trials.
Postpartum Pelvic Floor Recovery
Childbirth places significant mechanical stress on pelvic floor musculature. Emsella offers a non-invasive, fully clothed recovery option for postpartum women experiencing leakage, pelvic instability, or reduced muscle control.
Emsella for Men
Male pelvic floor weakness presents as urinary leakage, post-void dribbling, and in some cases erectile dysfunction. Emsella's FDA clearance covers male urinary incontinence, and BTL's clinical protocols include a male-specific treatment pathway.
What the Clinical Data Shows
These outcomes are drawn from BTL's published Emsella research. Individual results vary, but the data reflects consistent findings across clinical trial populations.

What Most People Ask Before Their First Emsella Session
Is there an Emsella chair in Cincinnati?
Yes. BODYSCULPT of Cincinnati is a BTL-certified Emsella provider located at 4015 Executive Drive, Suite 110, in Sharonville, OH, serving Cincinnati and the surrounding northern suburbs. You can self-schedule your first session directly online.
How many Emsella treatments do I need?
BTL's clinical protocol calls for six sessions, each approximately 28 minutes, scheduled twice per week over three weeks. Some patients notice early improvement within the first two to three sessions. The full benefit of the treatment series develops over the six to twelve weeks following the final session.
Is Emsella vs. Kegel exercises a real comparison — or are they completely different?
They address the same muscle group but through very different mechanisms. Kegel exercises activate 40 to 60 percent of pelvic floor fibers voluntarily. Emsella's HIFEM technology induces supramaximal contractions across the complete pelvic floor musculature, including fibers that voluntary exercise cannot reach. For patients with meaningful pelvic floor weakness, they're not equivalent — and Emsella's clinical data demonstrates outcomes that exercise alone has not been shown to replicate.
Does Emsella require undressing or any preparation?
No. You remain fully clothed for the entire session. There's no preparation, no gowns, and no physical exposure of any kind. You sit on the chair, complete the 28-minute treatment, and leave.
Is Emsella covered by insurance?
Emsella is not typically covered under standard insurance plans. CareCredit financing at 0% interest for 6 to 12 months is available with approved credit, and HSA funds are accepted at BODYSCULPT of Cincinnati.
What an Emsella Session at BODYSCULPT Looks Like
You remain fully clothed for the entire treatment — no gowns, no preparation, no exposure. Each session runs approximately 28 minutes, and most patients complete six sessions scheduled twice per week over three weeks.
You sit on the Emsella chair fully clothed; the HIFEM energy delivers pelvic floor contractions through clothing without any physical contact or preparation required.
01
You'll feel the contractions as a distinctive pulsing sensation — noticeable but not painful, and adjustable if needed during the session.
02
There is no recovery time; patients return to their full daily schedule immediately after each session.
03
Improvement in urinary control and pelvic floor function develops progressively, with BTL's clinical data showing meaningful symptom reduction at the six-month mark.
