Myth 1: EMSella is Painful
Fact: EMSella treatments are entirely painless. During your session, you’ll remain fully clothed, comfortably seated, experiencing only a mild tingling sensation as the device stimulates your pelvic muscles.
Myth 2: EMSella Requires Downtime
Fact: There’s zero downtime required with EMSella. Each session lasts just 28 minutes, and you can immediately return to your daily activities.
Myth 3: EMSella Isn't Effective
Fact: Clinical studies and our clients’ experiences at Acumend demonstrate significant improvements in pelvic floor strength and bladder control, often after just a few sessions.
Myth 4: EMSella is Only for Older Women
Fact: Pelvic floor weakening affects women of all ages, particularly post-childbirth. EMSella benefits younger mothers, athletes, and older women alike.
Myth 5: EMSella is Too Expensive
Fact: When compared to the ongoing costs and effort of physiotherapy or surgical procedures, EMSella is cost-effective. Acumend also offers flexible packages and trial sessions to make treatments accessible.
Myth 6: Kegels are Equally Effective as EMSella
Fact: EMSella delivers over 11,000 supramaximal muscle contractions per session, achieving deeper and more consistent results than manual Kegel exercises.
Myth 7: EMSella is a One-Size-Fits-All Treatment
Fact: At Acumend, treatments are personalised based on each individual’s health history and specific goals. Our experts tailor sessions to maximise your pelvic floor strength and overall comfort.
