What is urinary incontinence?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Urinary incontinence is the involuntary leakage of urine. It can occur at various stages of life and is associated with several factors, such as pregnancy and childbirth, menopause, aging, certain prostate conditions, or high-impact sports. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These leaks can occur when laughing, coughing, during physical exertion, or following a sudden urge to urinate that is difficult to hold back. Although common, urinary incontinence is not inevitable. Modern, non-invasive solutions are now available to improve urinary control and effectively strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

The Role of the Pelvic Floor in Urinary Incontinence<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The pelvic floor is a group of muscles that support the pelvic organs and play a key role in bladder control. Over time, certain events such as childbirth, menopause, or aging can weaken these muscles, leading to urinary leakage. Effective treatment for urinary incontinence therefore relies on targeted strengthening of the pelvic floor. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

Who is urinary incontinence treatment intended for?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This service is intended for: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • to women and men; <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • for people with any type of urinary incontinence; <\/li>\n\n\n\n

    \n
    \n
    \n

    How does the EMSELLA urinary incontinence treatment work?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    This is a non-invasive medical device that deeply stimulates and strengthens the pelvic floor muscles. <\/em>The treatment uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic waves, a technology approved by Health Canada. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This stimulation allows for: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • to stimulate blood circulation; <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • to improve tissue oxygenation; <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • to induce deep, repeated contractions of the pelvic floor muscles. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      The treatment is performed comfortably while seated, fully clothed, with no surgery, no needles, and no recovery time.<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      A session lasting about 28 minutes, performed while seated and fully clothed, is equivalent to more than 11,000 supramaximal muscle contractions\u2014a level that cannot be achieved voluntarily. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
