More about pelvic floor trainers
Pelvic floor or Kegel trainers complement the rehabilitation our patients do in clinic. We recommend them to boost the therapeutic effect of professional treatment and make more progress in recovering from pelvic floor injuries.
Why do you need to exercise your pelvic floor?
Keeping your pelvic floor muscles in good shape is crucial for all women, whatever their age, and especially for those who leak urine, wind or stools, are pregnant or going through menopause.
These devices counter the weakening of the sphincters, so they prevent urinary and fecal incontinence and the loss of pelvic floor tone that is often linked to prolapse. You will also gain a stronger contraction, learn to locate your pelvic floor and know how to activate it consciously together with the deep abdominal muscles.
Why have we chosen these products?
A personal pelvic floor trainer that uses vibration to help you contract the muscles correctly: you activate your pelvic floor when it vibrates and relax it when it stops. It is a useful aid if you are unsure or have not worked with a physiotherapist before, because the most common mistake is to activate the glutes instead of the pelvic floor. The device automatically adjusts the intensity of each exercise, which increases little by little.
It is the large ball or fitball we use in clinic: made of stronger material and safer than standard gym balls. The medium size is ideal for pregnant women and lets you sit comfortably in different positions. It is used for toning and pelvic mobility exercises that prepare the body for birth, and also as an aid during labor.
This inflatable cushion lets you do instability exercises to strengthen the core and activate the central muscles. It is ideal for workouts during pregnancy and postpartum. You can also put it on your chair, at home or at work, to activate your pelvic floor, transverse abdominis and spine while you sit.
