Advanced pelvic floor training for incontinence, control and function
Many people live for years with incontinence, leakage or pelvic floor problems without seeking help. Because the topic feels embarrassing. Because they think pelvic floor exercises are the only alternative. Or because you’ve tried them - and they simply didn’t work.
Do you know it?
- A sneeze, a laugh or a trampoline ride causes a small "accident"
- Know there is a toilet nearby before you leave the house
- You are up several times a night
- You experience decreased sexual pleasure or erectile dysfunction
- Kegel exercises don’t work - or you can’t feel if you’re doing them right
At MS Insight, the pelvic chair is not used as a standard package. It is assessed as part of an overall clinical strategy where muscle activation, nerve function, timing, tissue quality and symptom picture are considered together.

What is Pelvic Chair treatment?
Pelvic Chair uses HIFEM technology - High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Stimulation - to deeply and precisely activate the pelvic floor muscles without you having to exert yourself.
You sit down on the chair, fully clothed. Over the course of 30 minutes, the electromagnetic field automatically creates up to 12,000 muscle contractions in the pelvic floor. The contractions are supramaximal - far stronger than what most people can achieve with voluntary exercise or classic pelvic floor exercises.
It affects two levels at once:
- Muscle level: Increased strength, endurance and muscle tone.
- Nervous system: Better signal transmission, timing and automatic response to stress.
Treatment with Pelvic Chair is:
- Painless and non-invasive.
- Takes place fully clothed.
- No recovery time - you go straight back to everyday life.
- Clinically proven efficacy (published on PubMed).
- Relevant for both genders.
Who can Pelvic Chair help?
Pelvic floor problems affect women and men differently - but technology addresses both.
Women’s products
- Urinary incontinence (stress incontinence, urge incontinence, mixed incontinence)
- Faecal incontinence
- Frequent night wetting
- Incontinence and postpartum injuries
- Lowered uterus / vaginal prolapse
- Decreased sexual satisfaction and orgasm disorders
- Vaginal dryness and laxity
- Lichen sclerosus
- Prevention of pelvic floor problems
Men
- Urinary incontinence - including after prostate surgery
- Faecal incontinence
- Frequent night wetting
- Erectile dysfunction and erectile dysfunction
- Decreased sexual pleasure and function
- Pelvic pain
- Strengthening the pelvic floor in general
Pelvic Chair or Kegel exercises - what’s the difference?
Kegel exercises are still a sensible starting point. They’re free, require no equipment and I recommend them often.
But Kegel exercises require you to activate the right muscles - correctly, deeply and with sufficient intensity. Many people can’t. And it’s not a question of willpower or discipline. Many people activate the wrong muscles without realizing it and achieve no real effect.
Pelvic Chair bypasses that challenge. It activates the muscles directly via electromagnetic stimulation - without you having to control the contraction. This allows access to deeper muscle layers and more consistent recruitment than most can achieve manually.
How a course at MS Insight works
1 Free phone assessment
(15 minutes) We talk about your symptoms and your starting point. I’ll assess whether Pelvic Chair is relevant for you - or if another approach makes more sense.
2 Pre-consultation and planning
Before we start, we review your medical history and make a plan. We take into account strength, timing, tissue quality and nerve function - not a standard package, but an approach customized to your situation.
3 The treatment course
Typically 6-8 sessions over 3-4 weeks, twice a week. Most people start to notice effects after 2-3 treatments.
4 Maintenance
Recommended as ongoing follow-up every 4-8 weeks, depending on your needs and starting point.

Pelvic Chair price: What does the treatment cost?
A Pelvic Chair treatment costs DKK 499 per session. If you combine Pelvic Chair with shockwave, it’s included in the price per treatment - and you get a more complete clinical approach that works with muscle activation, tissue quality and microcirculation.

The real effect is neuromuscular rehabilitation
Pelvic Chair is often described as thousands of Kegel exercises in a short time. It’s a simple explanation - but also too simple.
The treatment not only activates the muscle, but affects the entire interaction between nerves and muscles. It helps the body activate the pelvic floor more precisely, more deeply and more consistently than most people achieve through self-training. Therefore, the technology should be understood as neuromuscular rehabilitation - not just more repetitions.
The most important effect is the transition from conscious training to automatic function. This is where it really makes a difference: when coughing, sneezing, lifting or sudden movements, the pelvic floor must react quickly and unconsciously - not only after an active decision. This is exactly the transition that many people don’t achieve with pelvic floor exercises alone.
For some, however, muscle activation is only one part of the problem. Tissue quality, blood flow, connective tissue elasticity, nerve function and previous surgery can all influence the effect. If the tissue conditions are not present, training alone may be insufficient - and a more specialized approach with shockwave and EMTT may be relevant.
Pelvic Chair in combination with shockwave and EMTT (especially for men)
At MS Insight, Pelvic Chair can be combined with shockwave therapy and EMTT when it makes clinical sense.
Pelvic Chair works on muscle activation and neuromuscular control. Shockwave addresses tissue quality and microcirculation. EMTT works on a cellular level with deep electromagnetic impact.
Combined correctly, we work not only with the muscle in isolation, but with the entire system: nerve, muscle, tissue and biological environment.
This is particularly relevant for men who experience a combination of erectile dysfunction, incontinence or pelvic pain. And it’s an option that no other clinic in Denmark offers at the same level.
