Pelvic Floor Weakness — Ovation Med Spa Houston
FDA-Cleared · 11,200 Contractions · Fully Clothed

Your Pelvic Floor
Supports Everything.
It's Time to Support It.

The pelvic floor is a group of muscles you probably don't think about — until they stop working properly. These muscles support your bladder, uterus, and rectum. They control urinary continence. They provide vaginal tone and sensation. They stabilize your core. When they weaken — from childbirth, aging, hormonal changes, chronic coughing, or heavy lifting — the effects cascade: incontinence, laxity, reduced sensation, lower back pain, and diminished core stability. EMSELLA rebuilds pelvic floor strength to levels impossible through voluntary exercise. Confidential treatment, fully clothed. Houston's Galleria/Uptown.

Understanding the Concern

One Muscle Group.
Everything Depends on It.

The pelvic floor consists of the pubococcygeus, iliococcygeus, coccygeus, and associated muscles forming a 'hammock' from the pubic bone to the tailbone. These muscles support pelvic organs, control urinary and fecal continence, contribute to sexual function, and stabilize the pelvis and spine.

Weakening causes include vaginal delivery (stretching and sometimes tearing muscle fibers), aging and hormonal decline (especially estrogen loss), chronic increased abdominal pressure (obesity, chronic cough, heavy lifting), and high-impact exercise without proper pelvic floor engagement.

The Kegel gap: Kegel exercises target the right muscles but most women perform them incorrectly (studies show up to 50% use the wrong muscle group), at insufficient intensity, and inconsistently. Even when done perfectly, voluntary contractions can't reach the supramaximal threshold needed to rebuild significantly weakened muscles.

EMSELLA delivers 11,200 supramaximal contractions per session — reaching intensity levels impossible through voluntary exercise. It contracts the correct muscles every time, at the right intensity, for 28 minutes. No exercise program can replicate this.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions

How is EMSELLA different from doing Kegels?+
Intensity: EMSELLA delivers 11,200 supramaximal contractions per session at intensities impossible to achieve voluntarily. Accuracy: the electromagnetic field contracts the correct pelvic floor muscles every time (studies show 50% of women do Kegels with the wrong muscles). Consistency: 28 minutes of continuous stimulation vs. sporadic voluntary effort.
What does the treatment feel like?+
Intense pelvic floor contractions and a tingling sensation. It's unusual but not painful. Intensity is adjusted throughout treatment. Most patients find it comfortable after the first few minutes and read or use their phone during the session.
How many sessions do I need?+
Standard protocol is 6 sessions over 3 weeks (2 per week). Maintenance sessions every 3-6 months sustain and build on results. Some patients with significant weakness benefit from additional sessions.
Will this help with more than incontinence?+
Yes. Strengthened pelvic floor muscles improve urinary control, vaginal tone and sensation during intimacy, core stability, and pelvic organ support. It's the foundation treatment that enhances every other intimate health intervention at Ovation.
Can I do EMSELLA if I have a metal implant or IUD?+
EMSELLA uses electromagnetic technology, so metal implants in the pelvic area (hip replacements, IUDs with metal components) may be contraindicated. Copper IUDs are not compatible. Hormonal IUDs without metal are generally fine. Your provider evaluates compatibility during consultation.
