Stop Letting Leaks Control Your Life
FDA-Cleared Treatment for Bladder Control
Millions of Women Experience This —You Don't Have to Live with It
If you leak when you laugh, sneeze, cough, exercise, or rush to the bathroom, you’re not alone.
Urinary incontinence affects 1 in 3 women—and millions suffer in silence, too embarrassed to talk about it even with their doctors.
You might:
- Avoid social activities because you’re worried about accidents
- Map out every bathroom location before leaving home
- Wear pads “just in case”
- Stop exercising because jumping or running causes leaks
- Feel anxious about intimacy
- Feel like your body betrayed you after pregnancy or menopause
This is NOT just “part of getting older” or “what happens after babies.”
Your pelvic floor can be strengthened, and CoreLift can help—without surgery, without pain, and fully clothed.
Men Face These Challenges Every Day—You Don't Have to
If you struggle with erections, climax too quickly, leak urine, or feel less control than you used to, you’re not alone.
Millions of men experience pelvic floor–related issues—yet many suffer in silence, feeling embarrassed or unsure where to turn.
You might:- Worry about maintaining or sustaining an erection
- Feel frustrated by premature ejaculation
- Notice urine leaks when you cough, lift, exercise, or feel a sudden urge
- Experience incontinence after prostate surgery
- Avoid intimacy due to anxiety or loss of confidence
- Feel like your body isn’t responding the way it used to with age
Pelvic-floor concerns are common and worth discussing with a qualified clinician.
CoreLift uses FDA-cleared EMSELLA technology to stimulate pelvic-floor muscle contractions while you remain fully clothed. Dr. Tess will assess whether this treatment may be appropriate for urinary incontinence or other pelvic-floor concerns. It is not a guaranteed treatment for erectile dysfunction or premature ejaculation, and individual results vary.
What Is CoreLift Pelvic Health Treatment?
CoreLift uses EMSELLA technology—an FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment that strengthens your pelvic floor muscles using high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy.
Think of it as a super-charged workout for your pelvic floor—except you just sit down, fully clothed, while the chair does the work.
How EMSELLA Works
Your consultation will review pricing, suitability and the recommended number of sessions.
The Science
- You sit fully clothed on the EMSELLA chair
- The chair delivers thousands of supramaximal pelvic floor muscle contractions
- The treatment produces repeated pelvic-floor muscle contractions
- A typical plan may include six sessions based on clinical assessment
- Individual response and bladder-control improvement vary
Concerns We Evaluate
- Stress Incontinence: Leaking when you laugh, sneeze, cough, jump, exercise
- Urge Incontinence: Sudden, intense need to urinate; frequent bathroom trips
- Mixed Incontinence: Combination of stress and urge incontinence
-
Pelvic Floor Weakness: After childbirth, menopause, or aging (In Women).
Male urinary incontinence and pelvic-floor concerns after clinical evaluation - Sexual Dysfunction: Reduced sensation or satisfaction due to weak pelvic floor

Frequently Asked Questions
CoreLift Pelvic Health Questions Answered
Q: Does EMSELLA really work, or is it just hype?
A: EMSELLA is FDA-cleared and uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic technology to stimulate pelvic floor muscle contractions. Individual results vary. Dr. Tess will assess whether it is appropriate for you and discuss realistic expectations.
Q: Is the treatment painful?
A: No, EMSELLA is not painful. You’ll feel pelvic floor muscle contractions—like a strong workout—but it’s tolerable. Most patients describe it as “strange but not uncomfortable.” You remain in control and can stop if needed.
Q: Do I have to undress?
A: No! You remain fully clothed throughout the entire treatment. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing without metal zippers or buttons in the pelvic area. Clothing that is too thick or too tight will block the magnetic waves so they do not reach your pelvic floor. Denim is particularly obstructive, so don’t wear your skinny jeans.
Q: How long does each session take?
A: Each EMSELLA session is exactly 28 minutes. No prep time, no recovery time. You can literally schedule it on your lunch break and return to work immediately after.
Q: How many sessions do I need?
A: The recommended protocol is 6 sessions over 3 weeks (2 sessions per week). Clinical studies show this provides optimal results. Some patients see improvement sooner, but the full series gives the best outcomes.
Q: When will I see results?
A: Many patients notice improvement after 2-3 sessions. Most see significant results after completing all 6 sessions. Results continue improving for 2-4 weeks after the final treatment as muscles continue strengthening.
Q: How long do results last?
A: Results typically last 6-12 months or longer. Some patients maintain results even longer. You can return for maintenance sessions (1-2 sessions every few months) to sustain results.
Q: Can I do this if I've never had children?
A: Yes! While childbirth is a common cause of pelvic floor weakness, women who’ve never had children can also experience incontinence due to aging, menopause, genetics, weight, or high-impact activities.
Q: What if I've already been through menopause?
A: EMSELLA works regardless of hormonal status. It strengthens muscles through electromagnetic stimulation, which works even when hormones have changed. Many of our successful patients are postmenopausal.
Q: Can men use EMSELLA?
A: Yes! Men can also benefit from EMSELLA for post-prostatectomy incontinence or age-related bladder control issues.
Q: Is there anyone who shouldn't do CoreLift?
A: You should not use EMSELLA if you’re pregnant, have metal implants in the pelvic area, have a pacemaker, have active pelvic cancer, or have severe pelvic organ prolapse. Dr. Tess will evaluate your candidacy during consultation.
Q: Can I do this if I have a prolapse?
A: Emsella works well for mild pelvic organ prolapse by increasing pelvic floor strength and improving muscle support. Many patients experience significant symptom relief through this non-invasive treatment. For more advanced prolapse, surgical options may be more appropriate. Dr. Tess will perform a thorough evaluation to assess the severity of your prolapse and recommend the best treatment path.
Q: What should I wear to my appointment?
A: Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing without metal zippers or buttons in the pelvic area. Clothing that is too thick or too tight will block the magnetic waves so they do not reach your pelvic floor. Denim is particularly obstructive, so don’t wear your skinny jeans.
Q: Will it make me have to pee during treatment?
A: The intense pelvic floor contractions can create sensations of needing to urinate, but this is normal and temporary. We recommend using the bathroom immediately before your session. You won’t actually lose bladder control during treatment.
Q: Can I exercise after treatment?
A: Yes! There’s Most people resume usual activity after a session or activity restrictions. You can exercise, work, drive—everything—immediately after your session.
Q: Does insurance cover EMSELLA?
A: EMSELLA is typically not covered by insurance because it is often considered an elective treatment. HSA/FSA eligibility depends on your plan. Ask about the Garcia Care Payment Plan for eligible services; availability, approval, and written terms vary.
Q: What if it doesn't work for me?
A: Results vary. If your symptoms do not improve as expected, we will review your response and discuss appropriate next steps, which may include additional evaluation or referral to pelvic floor physical therapy or a specialist.
Q: Can I bring someone with me to the appointment?
A: Absolutely, if that makes you more comfortable. However, the treatment itself is completely private and non-invasive—many patients come alone.
