Kegel Exercise Machines

Whether you are trying to spice up your love life, just had a baby, are suffering from urinary incontinence, or have a weakened pelvic wall, Kegel exercises can improve your situation. The idea behind Kegel's exercises is to relax and strengthen the pubococcygeus muscles, which are also known as the PC muscles.

  1. Kegel History

    • Gynecologist Dr. Arnold Kegel developed the Kegel Perineometer. The use of this machine, which measured vaginal air pressure, allowed him to observe the vaginal muscles contracting.

    Contour Kegel

    • The Contour Kegel is a small apparatus that weighs just under a pound, but is immensely effective in tightening the PC muscles. Just hold the weight in place against gravity and squeeze for at least 15 seconds, and you will feel it working.

    Steel Barbell

    • Made of stainless steel, this device is durable and easy to clean. The steel barbell is another weight- bearing mechanism that contracts the PC muscles.

    Kegel Master

    • For fast results, simply insert it into the vagina, turn the control knob to open the device until you can feel pressure being applied to your vaginal muscles. You can then squeeze your vaginal muscles against the resistance of your choice.

    Pelvexiser

    • This device is good for incontinence and weak pelvic muscles. It has adjustable resistance and an easy to understand biofeedback display. The Pelvexier works well with isolating and strengthening the pelvic floor muscles.

    Ben Wa Balls

    • These balls increase the tone of the entire pelvic area for any and all situations.
