Could a magnetic chair help new moms recover pelvic strength?
NCT ID NCT07528560
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a device called Emsella, which uses electromagnetic energy, can strengthen pelvic floor muscles in first-time mothers who had a vaginal delivery. Sixty women will either receive the treatment or follow natural recovery. The goal is to see if the device can restore muscle tone and prevent future problems like incontinence.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- HIFEM (High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic) device (BTL Emsella)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a non-invasive way to help new mothers restore pelvic floor strength after childbirth.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, non-randomized early study with only 60 participants. It may not show a clear benefit over natural recovery, and results may not apply to all women.
