Why PEMF

Thousands of perfect pelvic floor contractions — while you sit.

Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF/HIFEM) energy passes gently through clothing and skin to activate the deep pelvic floor muscles that are hard to reach with exercises alone. Protocols are designed and reviewed under the Barrie Urology Group.

How It Works

Three simple steps

A session is quiet, private and uneventful — which is exactly the point.

01

Sit down, fully clothed

No needles, no gowns, no gel. You sit comfortably in the B-Pulse chair and relax.

02

The muscles do the work

Focused electromagnetic pulses contract and release the pelvic floor repeatedly — like thousands of precise Kegels in one session.

03

Carry on with your day

Sessions last about 30 minutes with no downtime. Most people complete a short series for best results.

What's Happening Inside

From magnetic pulse to stronger pelvic floor

The physiology, in four plain-language steps — as described in the published research on pelvic floor magnetic stimulation.

Magnetic pulses pass through clothing

Low-frequency electromagnetic pulses travel through fabric and skin without heat, needles or undressing.

Nerves are gently stimulated

The field induces tiny currents that depolarise the pudendal and motor nerves supplying the pelvic floor.

Pelvic muscles contract on their own

Each pulse triggers a full contraction — including the deep muscles most people cannot isolate voluntarily.

Support and control improve

Repeated contractions build strength and endurance, improving urethral closure and calming bladder urgency.

About the B-Pulse chair

B-Pulse is an advanced, clinically used pelvic floor stimulation system built around high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology. It’s designed to complement medical care under professional supervision.
  • Delivers consistent, repeatable muscle activation
  • Targets deep pelvic muscles with precision
  • Non-invasive and comfortable
  • Widely used in clinical pelvic health settings

Compared To Kegels

Why the chair reaches what exercises often miss

Pelvic floor exercises work — when they’re done correctly and consistently. That’s the hard part.

The challenge with Kegels alone

  • Many people engage the wrong muscles without realising it
  • Deep pelvic muscles are difficult to isolate voluntarily
  • Consistency over weeks and months is hard to maintain
  • Progress is difficult to measure on your own

What PEMF adds

  • Contractions are triggered directly, not relied upon
  • Every session delivers the same controlled intensity
  • No technique to learn and nothing to remember at home
  • Supervised in a clinical setting, with your history reviewed first
PEMF therapy is a conservative, non-invasive option intended to complement medical care. It is not suitable for everyone — including people with pacemakers, metal or electronic implants, or during pregnancy. We review your health history before any session and will tell you honestly if it isn’t the right fit.

The Research

What a randomised trial found

In a 2022 randomised study of 40 women with mixed incontinence, one group added PEMF to pelvic floor training and the other did the training alone. Both improved — the PEMF group improved significantly more on both measures.

+31%

Pelvic floor strength

Average perineometer gain with PEMF added, vs +13% with exercises alone.

−66%

Symptom severity

Average drop in ISSI score with PEMF added, vs −33% with exercises alone.

8 weeks

Study duration

Twice-weekly sessions of about 20 minutes each, fully clothed.

1 in 3

Women affected

Mixed incontinence affects roughly one in three women.

Pelvic floor muscle strength

Measured by perineometer (cmH₂O). Women who added PEMF to pelvic floor training gained noticeably more strength than those doing the training alone.

Why clinicians consider PEMF a conservative first step

  • Non-invasive — no surgery, needles or catheters
  • Cleared by the US FDA for therapeutic use since 1998
  • You stay fully clothed; the field passes through fabric
  • Reported as painless and well tolerated in the trial
  • Not suitable with pacemakers, metal or electronic implants, or in pregnancy

How the study was run

  • 40 women with mixed incontinence, randomly assigned to two groups
  • Sessions twice a week for 8 weeks, fully clothed on a PEMF couch
  • Low-frequency (15 Hz) and higher-frequency (40 Hz) intervals per session
  • Both groups also performed the same pelvic floor exercise programme
  • Strength measured by perineometer; symptoms by the ISSI questionnaire
