Help for Urinary + Stress Incontinence
Laughing, sneezing, and getting through a workout should not mean planning around leaks. Start a private conversation about your pelvic floor and your options.
Understanding the concern
A little more freedom in your day
Bladder leaks can affect the clothes you choose, your workouts, and your confidence away from home. You do not need to be embarrassed to bring them up. Juniper can discuss pelvic floor treatment and when a medical assessment is needed.
Pelvic floor weakness can contribute, but infection, medication, pregnancy, childbirth, menopause, prostate conditions, neurologic issues, and other health factors may also play a role. New or unexplained symptoms deserve medical evaluation before treatment is treated like a simple cosmetic problem.
Why the pattern matters
What are you noticing?
A closer look helps us understand what you want to improve and which kind of care may fit.
Urge incontinence
A sudden, strong need to urinate is followed by leakage before reaching a bathroom.
Mixed or unexplained symptoms
Stress and urgency can overlap. Pain, blood, recurrent infections, retention, or rapidly changing symptoms require medical assessment.

Frequently asked
Urinary + Stress Incontinence questions, clearly answered
Have another question? We are happy to talk it through before you choose a treatment.
Is urinary leakage normal after childbirth or with age?+
It is common, but common does not mean you have to ignore it. An evaluation can identify contributing factors and whether pelvic floor treatment, physical therapy, medical care, or a combination is appropriate.
What is the difference between stress and urge incontinence?+
Stress incontinence involves leakage when pressure rises with movement, coughing, or sneezing. Urge incontinence involves a sudden need to urinate that is difficult to defer. Some people have both.
Can EMSELLA diagnose the cause?+
No. EMSELLA is a treatment device, not a diagnostic test. Symptoms and medical history determine whether another clinician or evaluation should come first.
When should I seek medical care promptly?+
Seek medical evaluation for pain, blood in the urine, fever, recurrent infection, difficulty emptying the bladder, new neurologic symptoms, sudden severe changes, or any symptom that concerns you.
Do I remain clothed during EMSELLA?+
Yes. Treatment is performed while you sit fully clothed on the chair, without an internal applicator.
