Pelvic Floor Health and Confidence: How TeslaChair™ Helps Treat Urinary Incontinence

At Dr Liesel Holler Medical Aesthetics, pelvic floor health is recognised as an essential part of overall wellbeing, yet it is often overlooked. Pelvic floor strength plays a crucial role in daily comfort, confidence, and quality of life. Many women experience symptoms such as urinary leakage, reduced pelvic strength, or discomfort, particularly after pregnancy, during menopause, or as part of the natural ageing process. Despite how common these concerns are, they are often not discussed openly.

With growing awareness during Women’s Health Month in May and the International Day of Action for Women’s Health on 28 May, conversations around pelvic health are becoming more accessible. This has led many women to explore non-invasive solutions designed to strengthen the pelvic floor and improve bladder control.

One of the most advanced non-invasive options available is TeslaChair™ pelvic floor therapy, a treatment designed to restore pelvic floor strength safely and effectively.

Understanding Pelvic Floor Health

The pelvic floor is a group of muscles that support the bladder, uterus, and bowel. These muscles play an essential role in controlling bladder function, maintaining core stability, and supporting overall pelvic health.

Over time, the pelvic floor muscles can weaken due to:

• pregnancy and childbirth
• hormonal changes
• menopause
• ageing
• weight fluctuations
• high-impact exercise
• chronic coughing or strain

When these muscles weaken, symptoms may begin to develop gradually.

Common signs of pelvic floor weakness include:

• urinary leakage when coughing or sneezing
• urgency to use the bathroom
• reduced bladder control
• pelvic heaviness
• decreased core stability

These symptoms can affect confidence and daily activities, but many people assume they are simply a normal part of ageing. In reality, pelvic floor weakness is treatable.

Why Pelvic Floor Health Matters

Pelvic floor health affects more than bladder control. Strong pelvic floor muscles support:

• bladder function
• core stability
• posture
• pelvic support
• overall comfort

When these muscles weaken, it can impact both physical wellbeing and confidence. Many individuals avoid exercise, travel, or social situations due to fear of leakage or discomfort.

Addressing pelvic floor health early can help prevent symptoms from progressing and improve quality of life.

What Is TeslaChair™ Pelvic Floor Therapy?

TeslaChair™ is a non-invasive treatment designed to strengthen pelvic floor muscles using advanced electromagnetic technology.

Unlike traditional pelvic floor exercises, TeslaChair™ stimulates the muscles automatically and more effectively than standard exercises alone. It creates supramaximal contractions, which are far stronger than those achieved through voluntary effort, helping to strengthen the pelvic floor in a way that is not possible with normal exercise.

How TeslaChair™ Works

TeslaChair™ uses focused magnetic energy to stimulate the pelvic floor muscles. These contractions are similar to performing thousands of pelvic floor exercises in a single session.

During treatment:

• patients remain fully clothed
• the treatment is non-invasive
• sessions typically last around 20 to 30 minutes
• there is no downtime

These controlled muscle contractions help improve strength, endurance, and coordination within the pelvic floor.

Who Can Benefit from TeslaChair™?

TeslaChair™ pelvic floor therapy is suitable for a wide range of patients experiencing:

• stress urinary incontinence
• urge incontinence
• mixed incontinence
• pelvic floor weakness
• post-pregnancy pelvic changes
• menopausal pelvic changes

It is also suitable for patients looking to strengthen pelvic floor muscles preventatively.

Both women and men can benefit from pelvic floor strengthening, although women commonly seek treatment following pregnancy or during menopause.

Benefits of TeslaChair™ Pelvic Floor Therapy

TeslaChair™ offers several advantages compared to traditional pelvic floor exercises.

These include:

• non-invasive treatment
• no downtime
• comfortable sessions
• gradual improvement
• improved pelvic muscle strength

Many patients appreciate that the treatment does not require internal devices or invasive procedures.

What To Expect During Treatment

TeslaChair™ treatments are straightforward and comfortable.

Patients sit on the chair while the device delivers targeted electromagnetic pulses. These pulses cause the pelvic floor muscles to contract and relax repeatedly.

Most patients describe the sensation as unusual but comfortable. Sessions typically last around 20 to 30 minutes.

A course of treatments is usually recommended for optimal results. This may vary depending on individual symptoms and pelvic floor strength.

When Will You See Results?

Results develop gradually as muscle strength improves.

Some patients notice improvement after a few sessions. However, optimal results typically develop following a full course of treatment.

Patients may notice:

• improved bladder control
• reduced leakage
• increased pelvic strength
• improved confidence

Maintenance sessions may be recommended to support long-term results.

Is TeslaChair™ Safe?

TeslaChair™ is a non-invasive treatment and is generally well tolerated.

Because the treatment does not involve surgery or injections, risks are minimal. Some patients may experience mild muscle fatigue following treatment, similar to exercise.

However, TeslaChair™ may not be suitable for individuals with certain medical conditions. Consultation is essential to determine suitability.

Why Non-Invasive Pelvic Floor Treatment Is Growing in Popularity

Many patients prefer non-invasive options before considering surgical procedures.

TeslaChair™ offers a discreet and comfortable solution that fits easily into daily life. There is no recovery period, allowing patients to return to normal activities immediately.

This makes it particularly appealing for individuals with busy schedules.

FAQs

How many TeslaChair™ sessions are needed?

Most patients benefit from a course of treatments. The exact number depends on individual symptoms and goals.

How many TeslaChair™ sessions are needed?

Most patients benefit from a course of 6 to 8 sessions, typically scheduled over a few weeks. This allows the pelvic floor muscles to gradually strengthen and improve coordination. Some patients notice improvement earlier, but completing the full course usually delivers the most consistent and long-lasting results. Maintenance sessions may be recommended depending on symptoms and lifestyle factors.

Is TeslaChair™ painful?

TeslaChair™ is not painful. During treatment, you will feel rhythmic muscle contractions as the pelvic floor muscles are stimulated. Many patients describe the sensation as unusual but comfortable, similar to performing repeated pelvic floor exercises. The intensity can be adjusted to ensure treatment remains comfortable throughout the session.

Is there downtime after treatment?

No. TeslaChair™ is completely non-invasive, meaning there is no downtime following treatment. Patients can return to normal daily activities immediately, including work, exercise, and travel. Some individuals may experience mild muscle fatigue afterwards, similar to a workout, but this typically resolves quickly.

How long do results last?

Results vary depending on individual muscle strength, lifestyle, and the severity of symptoms. Many patients notice continued improvement after completing their treatment course. To maintain pelvic floor strength, occasional maintenance sessions may be recommended, particularly after pregnancy, menopause, or periods of increased strain.

Who is not suitable for TeslaChair™?

TeslaChair™ may not be suitable for individuals with certain medical conditions, such as those with pacemakers, metal implants in the pelvic area, or certain neurological conditions. Suitability is always assessed during consultation to ensure the treatment is safe and appropriate for your individual circumstances.
