Does anyone have this? I think I want it, but I would love feedback from others who have used it.

I know nothing about this specific device but have you had pelvic floor PT that they said you should get this. Per my well trained pelvic floor physical therapist only about 5% of the time she recommends kegels for the most common problems like incontinence. In many cases the pelvic floor muscles are “too tight" and kegels are the opposite of what is helpful. I did pelvic floor PT during pregnancy and afterwards and not once did she recommend kegels. So anyway, my point is, it’s a good idea to have a professional do an assessment first.

Thank you! I was seeing one last year, but she wound up focusing on my abdominal scar more because my abdomen is so tight after my breast reconstruction. I should go back and see her first; you’re right.

I loved my pelvic PT. She fixed my bladder. My life is so much better now.

Pelvic PT for all.

I’m currently seeing a pelvic floor PT for preventative care, and she said something similar.
