If you’ve experienced pelvic floor issues such as bladder leaks or weakened muscles, you’ve likely heard of Kegel exercises. Traditionally recommended, Kegels involve manually contracting and relaxing pelvic muscles to improve strength. However, with advanced technologies like EMSella available, more Adelaide women are wondering: Is EMSella more effective than traditional Kegels?
How Kegels Work
Kegel exercises target the pelvic floor muscles through repetitive, voluntary contractions. While effective when done consistently and correctly, Kegels require substantial daily effort and precise technique to see noticeable results. Many women in Adelaide report difficulty maintaining the rigorous schedule needed for optimal outcomes.
EMSella: Revolutionising Pelvic Floor Therapy
Unlike manual exercises, EMSella employs High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy to automatically stimulate deep pelvic muscle contractions. Each 28-minute session at Acumend in Adelaide triggers over 11,000 supramaximal contractions far beyond what can be achieved manually.
EMSella not only removes the guesswork but also ensures accuracy and efficiency in strengthening pelvic muscles.
Comparing Effectiveness: EMSella vs Kegels
Research and clinical outcomes increasingly highlight EMSella’s effectiveness:
- Consistency and Accuracy: EMSella delivers precise contractions every session, ensuring optimal pelvic muscle strengthening. In contrast, inconsistent technique and irregular practice limit Kegel effectiveness.
- Time Efficiency: EMSella offers rapid improvements typically visible within a few sessions. Kegel exercises generally take weeks or even months of consistent daily effort to produce comparable results.
- Depth of Muscle Activation: EMSella reaches deeper pelvic floor muscles effortlessly, significantly outperforming manual Kegels.
Who Should Consider EMSella?
EMSella is especially beneficial if you’ve struggled to maintain consistent Kegel routines, seek faster results, or experience severe pelvic floor weakening post-childbirth or menopause.
If you’re unsure, Acumend offers a 15-minute risk-free trial at our Adelaide clinic.
Conclusion
While Kegels remain helpful, EMSella provides a superior alternative with more consistent, powerful results in significantly less time. Adelaide women looking for convenience, speed, and effectiveness are increasingly choosing EMSella.
