Functional Magnetic Stimulation (FMS) uses a high-intensity pulsed magnetic field to trigger deep, involuntary muscle contractionsāwithout electrodes and through clothing. Its standout application is non-invasive pelvic-floor strengthening for urinary incontinence and intimate wellness (the "Kegel throne"), where clients simply sit fully clothed while the field does thousands of pelvic-floor contractions.
The Science
A rapidly changing magnetic field penetrates clothing and tissue without resistance and, by electromagnetic induction, depolarizes motor neuronsātriggering muscle contractions the same way a nerve signal would. Because it reaches deep structures directly, it can contract muscles that are very hard to train voluntarily, most notably the pelvic floor.
In a single ~28-minute session the device induces thousands of supramaximal pelvic-floor contractionsāthe equivalent of thousands of Kegelsārebuilding the muscular support that controls continence. The same principle is used for neuromuscular activation, re-education and circulation in other areas. Because there are no electrodes and no need to undress, treatment is comfortable, dignified and requires no downtime.
Magnetic stimulation reaches muscles you cannot consciously isolateāthousands of pelvic-floor contractions in one seated, fully-clothed session make it the leading non-invasive option for incontinence.
The Process
For pelvic floor, the client sits fully clothed on the applicator seat.
Intensity is increased to a strong but comfortable contraction level.
The field cycles contraction and rest phases for ~28 minutes.
No downtime; a course of sessions builds lasting strength.
Indications
Strengthens the pelvic floor to improve bladder control.
Supports postpartum recovery and intimate confidence.
Re-educates and activates target muscle groups.
Stimulates local circulation through contraction.
Why Magnetic Stimulation
No undressing, no electrodes, no probesācomfortable and private.
Trains the pelvic floor and deep muscles directly.
Sit, relax, leaveānothing to recover from.
Incontinence and intimate-wellness demand is large and underserved.
Clinical Evidence
International Urogynecology Journal Ā· 2019
Improved continence and pelvic-floor strength over a treatment course.
Neurourology and Urodynamics Ā· 2017
Demonstrated effective non-invasive pelvic-floor activation.
Skin Safety
| I | II | III | IV | V | VI | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Magnetic Stimulation | Safe | Safe | Safe | Safe | Safe | Safe |
Magnetic stimulation targets muscle/nerve via an electromagnetic field, not skin pigment, so it is safe on all skin tones (IāVI). Screening is about implants and medical history.
Safety
The magnetic field interacts strongly with metal and electronicsānever treat clients with pacemakers, ICDs, metal/electronic implants, copper IUDs (for pelvic use) or implants in the treatment field. Avoid during pregnancy and menstruation (for pelvic work) and screen for epilepsy and malignancy.

For Operators
| Area | Energy | Pulse | Spot | Freq | Cooling | Passes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pelvic Floor | 50ā100% intensity | ~28 min | Seat applicator | Program-set | None | 1 |
| Neuromuscular | 40ā80% intensity | 20ā30 min | Applicator | Program-set | None | 1 |
How FMS compares for pelvic and muscle goals.
Electromagnetic muscle contraction for body shaping.
ā Pros
Builds abs/glutes and reduces fat.
ā Cons
Targets large body muscles, not the pelvic floor specifically.
Voluntary pelvic-floor training.
ā Pros
Free, anytime.
ā Cons
Hard to isolate correctly; poor compliance and slow results.
FMS does what most people cannot do on their ownācorrectly and repeatedly contract the pelvic floorāmaking it far more effective than self-directed Kegels for incontinence.
Equipment
Operator Training
Training covers pelvic-floor and neuromuscular protocols, intensity ramping, the critical implant/IUD/pacemaker screening for magnetic fields, client comfort and consent, and expectation setting.
FAQ
Noāpelvic-floor treatment is done fully clothed, seated on the applicator. There are no probes or electrodes.
