Frequent urination has many causes. If it’s just a one-time issue, you might attribute it to anxiety or having too much to drink. But when the issue continues, you may need to consider the cause. And one of the most overlooked causes of frequent urination is a weakened pelvic floor.
At Spa 29, we offer Emsella for frequent urination treatment in Brunswick, GA. In this blog, we talk about how the pelvic floor impacts your ability to urinate and how Emsella improves your pelvic floor strength to give you more control.
Why do I urinate frequently?
Most adults urinate around 6 to 7 times a day, so we characterize “frequent urination” as urinating 8 times a day or more. People more frequently urinate for many reasons—an enlarged prostate, an overactive bladder, or even medication changes can all impact how often you visit the restroom.
But issues with timing and control can also result from a weakened pelvic floor.
The pelvic floor, a group of muscles that stretches from your tailbone to the front of your pubic bone, helps with a number of bodily functions. First, these muscles work with your core muscles to keep you stable while being upright, and they support your organs during internal pressure from actions like coughing, sneezing, and more.
But the pelvic floor also works with the muscles that control your bladder, your rectum and lower digestive tract, and your genitalia.
How Emsella Helps
If your Spa 29 provider determines that a weakened pelvic floor contributes to your frequent urination (also known as urinary incontinence) during your consultation, they will talk to you about Emsella.
Emsella works by using high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy to stimulate rapid contractions within your pelvic floor muscles, providing a workout equivalent to about 11,000 Kegels. This stimulation strengthens your pelvic floor muscles and improves your ability to “hold it.”
