Some of life’s best moments are full of laughter, smiles, and joy. But those moments shouldn’t be accompanied by unwanted bladder leaks. When you find yourself losing bladder control after coughing, jumping, sneezing, or laughing, you might have stress incontinence.
At Amazing Grace Aesthetics, our providers use Emsella for stress incontinence therapy in Rocky Mount. By stimulating the pelvic floor muscles, we can help you gain better control over your bladder to reduce leaks.
In this post, we answer common questions about stress incontinence and our treatment approach.
What is stress incontinence?
Stress incontinence, the most common type of urinary incontinence, happens when something puts pressure on the bladder, causing it to leak. Your pelvic floor also contributes to bladder function, as the muscles protect and support the bladder, bowel, and urethra.
If your pelvic floor muscles are weak and unable to support the urethra when it experiences pressure, you can suffer from stress incontinence.
With stress incontinence, you might find yourself having poor bladder control when:
- Laughing
- Jumping
- Sneezing
- Coughing
- Lifting heavy objects
- Running
How can I reduce stress incontinence?
With our team and the Emsella chair, we can help you reduce the risk of unwanted bladder leaks. Emsella uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles through deep contractions. These Kegel-like contractions are far more intense than a traditional Kegel exercise.
In just one session with Emsella, you can experience up to 11,000 contractions, allowing your pelvic floor muscles to tighten and restore proper function.

What does Emsella treatment look like?
We understand that struggling with stress incontinence can be isolating and take a toll on your confidence. That’s why we use this discreet treatment option to help patients regain control of their pelvic health.
Once we determine you are a good candidate for treatment through a personalized consultation, we welcome you to a private treatment room to receive service. You sit on the device fully clothed and relax for the next 30 minutes as the HIFEM energy works to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles.
Our team recommends a total of 6 appointments to get the best results from the Emsella chair. Each appointment requires no downtime, thanks to the noninvasive nature of treatment!
How long do results last?
After completing the final appointment of your treatment plan, you can see a reduction in bladder leaks for up to a year. We recommend adopting a healthy lifestyle and coming in for occasional maintenance sessions to sustain the results of our weak bladder treatment.
