kegel trainer

By Dr. Betsy Greenleaf, First Board Certified Urogynecologist

 

As women, we know how important it is to take care of our bodies, but often we forget about our pelvic health until it is too late.  As the first board-certified female urogynecologist who specializes in women’s pelvic health, I’m excited to talk about the benefits of using plusOne’s kegel trainer!

A kegel trainer is a device that can help us strengthen our pelvic floor muscles. These muscles are responsible for supporting our bladder, uterus, and rectum, as well as controlling urinary and bowel function when these muscles are strong we have better sexual function. We begin to lose 8% of muscle mass for each decade we live. Often we think about working out our arms and legs but forget about our pelvis. When our pelvic floor muscles weaken, we can experience a range of uncomfortable symptoms like embarrassing urine leakage or even difficulty holding in stool or gas.

But using a kegel trainer can be a game-changer! Why? Because over my 20 years in practice, I have seen that most women don’t do kegels properly. plusOne’s kegel trainer ensures that you are doing your kegel exercises correctly and effectively. That means we can improve our bladder control, reduce the risk of incontinence, and even enhance our sexual function!

Did you know that in France, many women start pelvic physical therapy after giving birth as a form of physical therapy? It’s true! And studies have shown that this practice has led to a lower prevalence of pelvic organ prolapse in French women than in other countries.

So why not give a kegel trainer a try? The plusOne kegel trainer is less than a month’s worth of incontinence pads and well worth it. Start taking control of your pelvic health!

As always, it’s essential to talk to your healthcare provider before starting any new exercise routine.

Remember, ladies, our bodies are extraordinary and worth taking care of! Let’s empower ourselves to improve pelvic health and live our best lives.

kegel trainer: ways to use



kegel trainer

give your pelvic floor a workout to achieve stronger
and more frequent climaxes

understanding your pelvic floor

Your pelvic floor is a group of muscles that stretches like a hammock from your pubic bone to your tailbone. It supports internal organs such as your uterus, colon, and bladder. If your pelvic floor is weak, you may experience frequent trips to the bathroom, lower back aches, urine leaks, and a decline in intimate sensation. By using the plusOne® kegel trainer, you can work your way to a strong and healthy pelvic floor.

how to perform a kegel

The muscles you use to stop urinating mid-flow are your pelvic floor muscles. Kegels are performed by engaging the same muscles in the same way. Focus on lifting the muscle upward while squeezing the vaginal opening closed.

strength training

Start by squeezing as hard as possible for 5 seconds and then relaxing for 5 seconds. Repeat this 5 times. Perform this exercise up to 3 times a day.

endurance training

Gently squeeze and hold for as long as possible. Maintain the same squeeze strength by keeping the indicator lights on the remote at the same level, then relax. Perform this exercise up to 3 times a day.

control training

Squeeze until the first indicator light illuminates. Hold at this level for 5 seconds, trying to keep the indicator light still. Relax for 10 seconds. Repeat, adding an additional indicator light each time. Perform this exercise up to 3 times a day.
