Erectile Dysfunction
It's More Common Than You Think. And It Isn't Something You Have to Simply Accept.
Maybe your erections aren't as firm as they used to be.
Maybe it's harder to maintain them.
Maybe intimacy has become frustrating instead of enjoyable.
Or maybe you've started avoiding intimacy altogether because you're worried it won't go the way you'd like.
If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone.
In fact, erectile dysfunction affects more than half of men between the ages of 40 and 70, and the likelihood increases with age.
But here's something many men don't realize:
Erectile dysfunction isn't always "just aging."
Sometimes it's your body's way of telling you something has changed—and in many men, the pelvic floor is part of that story.
At Ascend Chiropractic in Lincoln, Nebraska, we use Emsella® to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles that support bladder control, erectile function, and pelvic health—all without surgery, injections, or downtime.
Your Body Is Talking. It's Worth Listening.
Many men assume erectile dysfunction is simply something they have to live with.
The reality?
An erection depends on several systems working together:
- Healthy blood flow
- Strong pelvic floor muscles
- Healthy nerve function
- Balanced hormones
- Good cardiovascular health
When one of those systems isn't functioning well, erections often change.
Sometimes erectile dysfunction is actually one of the earliest signs of:
- Cardiovascular disease
- Diabetes
- High blood pressure
- Low testosterone
- Pelvic floor weakness
Rather than simply masking the symptom, it's important to understand why it's happening.
Can a Weak Pelvic Floor Really Affect Erections?
Yes.
Most men have never heard this.
The pelvic floor muscles play an essential role in maintaining an erection.
These muscles help compress the veins that normally allow blood to leave the penis.
When they're functioning properly, they help keep blood trapped within the erectile tissue—allowing erections to stay firmer and last longer.
When they weaken, men may notice:
- Difficulty maintaining erections
- Erections that aren't as firm
- Reduced confidence during intimacy
- Urinary leakage
- Dribbling after urination
The encouraging news?
Like other muscles in your body, the pelvic floor can often become stronger.
How Emsella Helps
Emsella uses High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM®) technology to stimulate thousands of powerful pelvic floor muscle contractions during a comfortable 28-minute treatment.
Instead of trying to perform Kegel exercises on your own, Emsella activates the entire pelvic floor automatically, helping strengthen muscles that support bladder control, pelvic stability, and erectile function.
Research has shown that pelvic floor muscle training can improve erectile function in men whose symptoms are related to pelvic floor weakness.
One published clinical study found that 37% of men with erectile dysfunction experienced measurable improvement after completing an Emsella treatment series. Many other participants reported improvements in erection firmness, pelvic floor strength, and overall sexual satisfaction.
Strengthening the pelvic floor may also help improve the muscles that support healthy blood flow within the pelvis and help maintain an erection.
Treatment is completely non-invasive.
✓ Fully clothed
✓ No surgery
✓ No injections
✓ No medications
✓ No downtime
It's About More Than Sex
Most men don't schedule a consultation because they're chasing "perfect performance."
They schedule because they want to feel like themselves again.
Imagine...
❤️ Feeling more confident with your partner.
❤️ Not worrying whether your erection will last.
❤️ Feeling stronger through your core and pelvis.
❤️ Improving bladder control at the same time.
❤️ Looking forward to intimacy instead of avoiding it.
Sometimes restoring confidence changes much more than the bedroom.
It changes relationships.

Because Getting Older Doesn't Mean Giving Up This Part of Life.
One of the saddest things we hear from men is:
"I figured this was just part of getting older."
Growing older doesn't mean intimacy has to disappear.
Many men are surprised to learn that strengthening the pelvic floor may improve not only bladder control—but also confidence, erection quality, and overall pelvic health.
At Ascend Chiropractic, our goal isn't simply to help improve erections.
It's to help you stay active, healthy, confident, and connected to the people who matter most.
Frequently Asked Questions
For Men
Erectile dysfunction has many possible causes, including blood flow, nerve function, hormone levels, medications, and pelvic floor weakness. Emsella is designed to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles and has improved erectile function when pelvic floor weakness or blood flow is contributing to the problem. During your consultation, we'll determine whether you're a good candidate.
Possibly. Clinical studies have shown improvements in erection firmness for some men after strengthening the pelvic floor with Emsella. Stronger pelvic floor muscles and improvements in blood flow help support the natural mechanisms that maintain an erection.
No. Emsella works differently than medications by strengthening the muscles that support erections and increases blood flow to the entire pelvic area. Some men use Emsella alongside other treatments as part of a comprehensive approach.
Not at all. Most men describe feeling rhythmic pelvic floor muscle contractions while sitting comfortably and fully clothed. Treatments last about 28 minutes, and there is no downtime afterward.
Yes. Pelvic floor weakness, decreased blood flow, and scar tissue are common after prostate surgery and may contribute to both urinary leakage and erectile dysfunction. Strengthening these muscles may help improve bladder control and support erectile function for some men.
