Answer: Weight loss medication is an effective tool when combined with a healthy lifestyle. We offer a variety of FDA-approved injections and prescription medications, that can help you achieve modest weight loss (5% to 20% of total body weight).
However, it’s important to understand that prescription weight loss medication isn’t the same as over-the-counter dietary supplements for weight loss. Supplements have not been evaluated or approved by the FDA. So even if they claim to be “safe” or “natural,” they aren’t regulated. We recommend talking to your Medical Provider before trying supplements.
Answer: Yes. At Carolina Health and Hydration ALL of our medications and nutritional supplements come from FDA approved pharmaceutical companies.
EMSELLA is suitable for men and women of any age who are looking for a solution for urinary incontinence and bladder leakage and want to improve their quality of life. It is also a good option for those who want to strengthen their pelvic floor muscles.
Patients who have a pacemaker, drug pump, cochlear implant, or neurostimulator implanted, or have metal implants near the pelvic area should not receive the Emsella treatment. This is because the treatment uses HIFEM (High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Stimulation) technology. Your suitability for the treatment will be discussed during your initial consultation.
A typical treatment takes approximately 30 minutes and typically six sessions are needed, scheduled twice a week for three weeks. Additional sessions may be recommended for severe bladder leakage.
The Emsella treatment is non-invasive. You will remain fully clothed while sitting on the Emsella chair. During the treatment, patients may feel tingling and contracting of their pelvic floor muscles, but it is painless. Patients can resume their daily activities immediately after the treatment.
Many patients report seeing benefits and improvement in bladder control after just one treatment, while others may see results toward the end of their six sessions or a few weeks after the end of treatment. Results may vary from patient to patient. Research shows that 95% of patients who followed the average protocol reported an improvement in quality of life after three weeks of Emsella, and two-thirds of patients completely eliminated or reduced their need for pads.
The cost of the Emsella is $895 paid in full for (9) Treatments (6 Treatments over a 3-week span, plus 3 maintenance treatments scheduled at your convenience). The treatment is affordable and the improvement in quality of life is priceless! *Individual treatments are $195 if paid per visit.
