What is pelvic floor strengthening?

Pelvic floor strengthening focuses on conditioning the deep muscles that support the bladder, bowel and pelvic organs. When these muscles are weak or poorly coordinated, you may notice light leakage, urgency, reduced control or a feeling of less support.

At Ocean, our approach is private, respectful and practical. We look at your symptoms, pelvic floor function, lifestyle, life stage and goals. From there we create a plan that can include device based pelvic floor strengthening, lifestyle advice and simple home exercises that fit your routine.

Benefits & Target Areas

Helps strengthen pelvic floor muscles that support the bladder and can contribute to light leakage with coughing, sneezing or exercise in suitable clients.

Can support pelvic floor activation and awareness as part of a broader plan to help manage urgency and frequent bathroom visits.

Assists in re engaging and strengthening deep pelvic muscles after pregnancy and childbirth, when cleared medically.

Supports muscle conditioning in people who notice changes in bladder control or pelvic support over time.

Aims to improve strength and awareness of the pelvic floor, which many people find helpful for day to day confidence and comfort.

Ideal for

Pelvic floor strengthening is ideal for people who notice mild to moderate pelvic floor weakness, such as light bladder leakage, urgency or a feeling of less support, and who are looking for a non surgical option to sit alongside exercises and medical care. It suits clients who would like a private, fully clothed treatment that does not require invasive procedures or downtime.

These treatments work best for individuals who are willing to complete a full course of sessions, keep up recommended pelvic floor exercises and attend reviews so we can adjust the plan. Suitability is always confirmed by a doctor at consultation, especially if you are pregnant, have implanted electronic devices, recent pelvic surgery, significant prolapse or complex medical conditions.

Treatment Journey

Your journey begins with a doctor led consultation. We discuss your bladder and pelvic symptoms, pregnancies, surgeries, medications and other health factors, and may ask about any previous pelvic floor physiotherapy or treatments. Your doctor explains how pelvic floor strengthening with EMSELLA works, what it can realistically support, how many sessions are likely and how it fits with care from your GP or specialist.

  • Ensure you have had appropriate medical assessment for any new or concerning bladder or pelvic symptoms.
  • Let your doctor know about any implanted electronic devices, metal in the pelvic area, recent pelvic surgery, prolapse diagnosis or neurological conditions.
  • Empty your bladder shortly before each session so you feel comfortable.
  • Wear comfortable clothing without large metal accessories or belts.
  • We explain how the treatment chair feels, how long each session takes and what to expect during and after treatment.

  • You can return to normal activities straight away, including work and gentle exercise.
  • Some people notice a feeling of pelvic muscle fatigue or awareness after treatment, which usually settles quickly.
  • Stay hydrated and continue any pelvic floor exercises or physiotherapy program recommended by your healthcare team.
  • Keep a simple diary of symptoms if suggested, so we can track changes over your course of sessions.
  • Attend review appointments so we can discuss progress, adjust the number of sessions if needed and plan any maintenance treatments in line with your broader medical care.

Technology We May Use

Ocean selects platforms to match your goals.

EMSELLA is a chair based treatment that uses high intensity focused electromagnetic energy to trigger thousands of strong pelvic floor contractions in a single session while you remain fully clothed, helping to condition and strengthen the pelvic floor muscles that support bladder control and pelvic organs in suitable clients.

Frequently Asked Questions

Pelvic floor strengthening with EMSELLA uses focused electromagnetic energy delivered through a specialised chair to create strong, repeated pelvic floor muscle contractions, helping to condition these deep muscles in a way that complements regular pelvic floor exercises.

It is generally suitable for adults who experience mild to moderate pelvic floor weakness, such as light bladder leakage or urgency, and who have been medically assessed to make sure the treatment is appropriate and safe for their situation.

Yes, a doctor led consultation is essential to review your symptoms, rule out red flags, discuss any investigations and confirm that pelvic floor strengthening is a suitable part of your overall care.

During treatment you sit fully clothed on the EMSELLA chair and feel rapidly repeating tingling and lifting sensations in the pelvic floor muscles, which many people describe as unusual but very manageable.

Many people start with a short course of sessions spaced over several weeks, then review progress with their doctor, who may recommend further sessions or a maintenance schedule depending on symptoms and goals.

There is usually no downtime; you can get up from the chair and go back to normal daily activities straight away, with only mild pelvic muscle fatigue or awareness in some cases.

Some people notice early changes in awareness or control within a few weeks, while more noticeable improvements in bladder control or support often build gradually over the full course of treatment and ongoing exercises.

No, device based strengthening is best used alongside pelvic floor exercises, physiotherapy and medical care, not as a replacement for them, and we encourage ongoing collaboration with your broader healthcare team.

This treatment is generally not suitable if you are pregnant, have a pacemaker or certain implanted electronic devices, significant untreated prolapse, recent pelvic surgery or specific neurological conditions, which is why a thorough medical assessment is important.

Many people report feeling more confident and comfortable when pelvic floor strength and control improve, particularly in situations like exercise, social events or travel, although individual experiences vary and no outcomes can be guaranteed.
