Before starting treatment, it’s important to understand that HI‑EMT is a medical‑grade technology and isn’t suitable for everyone. Certain health conditions, implants or recent procedures can affect whether the treatment is safe or effective. During your consultation, we review your health history in detail to ensure HI‑EMT is appropriate for you.
HI‑EMT is not suitable for:
Pregnancy or breastfeeding - treatment cannot be used at any stage of pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
Recent plastic IUD - not recommended within 12 weeks of insertion.
Metal implants near the pelvis*- including copper coils, pelvic mesh containing metal, orthopaedic plates or screws.
Pacemakers, defibrillators or other implanted electronic medical implants, insulin pumps, cochlear implant, neurostimulator.
History of pelvic cancer - HI‑EMT is not advised if you have previously had pelvic cancer.
Uncontrolled bleeding disorder or taking blood thinners.
Active urinary tract infection - treatment should be postponed until the infection has fully resolved.
Recent pelvic surgery (not fully healed).
Open wounds, burns or lesions in the pelvic area.
Severe neurological disorders - conditions that significantly affect pelvic floor function may make HI‑EMT unsuitable.
Titanium implants - generally safe as titanium is non‑magnetic, but you must let your therapist know so we can determine the treatment is safe.
A consultation helps confirm whether HI‑EMT is appropriate for you and ensures your treatment plan is both safe and effective.
