BTL Emsella for Erectile Dysfunction

Treatment for Erectile Dysfunction

The pelvic floor muscles are crucial in sexual function, helping to support the penis, prostate, digestive organs, and rectum in men.

Symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction may include difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection, urinary or faecal incontinence, pelvic pain, difficulty emptying the bladder or bowels, and a sensation of pressure or heaviness in the pelvic region.

Traditional treatment options for pelvic floor dysfunction can include surgical procedures, medication, and pelvic floor exercises such as Kegels. The Emsella® chair is a breakthrough non-invasive treatment where the patient sits fully clothed throughout.

Emsella® Chair Treatment for Erectile Dysfunction

The Emsella® Chair represents a groundbreaking, nonsurgical, and noninvasive solution for various forms of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction, including Erectile Dysfunction, Urinary Incontinence, and sexual health issues.

The specially designed seat uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology, causing deep pelvic floor muscle stimulation and restoration of neuromuscular control. This innovative device enhances the strength and muscle tone of weakened, damaged or dysfunctional pelvic muscles.

It requires no medication or pharmacological treatments and is conducted over a 30-minute session. Each treatment is equivalent to 11,000 Kegels. Early intervention can help prevent the condition from worsening and can improve the weak pelvic floor muscles and overall quality of life.

The Pelvic Floor & Erections

The pelvic floor muscles play a substantial role in male sexual function, including the process of achieving and maintaining erections. These muscles are involved in the erectile process in the following ways.

Filling Phase

When a man becomes sexually aroused, the brain sends signals through the nervous system to relax the smooth muscles in the penis.

This allows blood to flow into the two chambers known as the corpora cavernosa. The ischiocavernosus muscles, part of the pelvic floor muscle group, help maintain this increased blood pressure in the penis and enables it to become erect.

Maintenance Phase

During an erection, the bulbocavernosus muscle contracts to prevent the outflow of blood from the penis, thereby helping to maintain the erection.

Ejaculation Phase

During ejaculation, the bulbocavernosus muscle contracts rhythmically to help propel semen out of the urethra.

Therefore, a healthy, well-toned pelvic floor can contribute to better sexual performance, more reliable erections, and improved erectile function and blood flow.

Common Symptoms of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction

Pelvic floor dysfunction can cause a variety of symptoms as a result of prostate surgery, pelvic muscle hypertrophy, or a spinal cord injury. Emsella® treatments can help increase the tone and strength of the pelvic floor, which may reduce mental health concerns and improve both symptoms and quality of life. Pelvic floor dysfunction in men can result from various factors such as prostate issues, surgeries, nerve damage, and ageing, which can weaken or damage the pelvic floor muscles and tissues. Obesity, chronic constipation, mental health conditions, and certain medical conditions can also contribute.

Common symptoms affecting the crucial pelvic floor muscles include:

• Urinary or faecal incontinence
• Erectile dysfunction
• Pelvic pain
• Difficulty emptying the bladder or bowels
• The sensation of pressure or heaviness in the pelvic region

These weakened pelvic floor muscles can cause awkward and uncomfortable symptoms that significantly impact quality of life. We highly recommend that you seek treatment for any of the above symptoms.

What is an Emsella®?

Emsella® is a non-invasive medical device using high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to stimulate pelvic floor muscles.

Electromagnetic therapy for erectile dysfunction is designed to enhance pelvic floor strength and treat urinary incontinence and sexual dysfunction in men. This innovative technology is gaining popularity for its safe and effective treatment in helping various pelvic floor disorders.

Emsella® delivers intense and targeted electromagnetic waves to the pelvic floor muscles, causing rapid contractions and relaxations of muscle fibres similar to those during Kegel exercises. This electromagnetic stimulation improves the strength and tone of the pelvic floor muscles, enhancing urinary control, reducing urinary leakage, and improving erectile function.

Who Can Have Treatment?

People over the age of 18 experiencing erectile dysfunction can have the BTL Emsella® Chair treatment at RT Aesthetics. However, for individuals with pacemakers or metal implants, there are some contraindications and risk factors.
