This condition is medically known as stress incontinence.Aquaflex is a clinically proven pelvic floor exercise system, consisting of two weighted vaginal cones specially designed to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles and so helping to cure or improve stress incontinence.70% of cases of stress incontinence can be cured or improved by using weighted vaginal cones, such as Aquaflex.
When to use Aqua Flex
Even if you have never experienced stress incontinence, you could use Aquaflex as a preventative measure, to strengthen your pelvic floor muscles in preparation for pregnancy, or as part of an overall fitness programme.
Motherhood - After the strain of carrying a baby for nine months, and the rigours of giving birth, it is not surprising that some mums will be left with a weakened pelvic floor muscles and poor control over their bladder.
Aquaflex can be used to cure or improve the symptoms of stress incontinence.
Aquaflex can be used at any time to fit in with your schedule. It's worth bearing in mind though, that as the day wears on, your muscles will become tired. So, if you exercise in the evening, you may not be able to hold as many weights or to exercise for as long as usual.
FAQ's Frequently Asked Questions about Aqua Flex Cones
Q
Can I do the pelvic floor exercises shown at my ante- and post- natal classes whilst using Aquaflex?
A
You should not use Aquaflex whilst pregnant. However, after having your baby, you should continue with your pelvic floor muscle exercises until you feel comfortable enough to start using Aquaflex (6-8 weeks after giving birth). As with all exercise, you must take care not to over exercise the muscles. Using the cone will replace regular sessions of pelvic floor muscle exercises.
Q
How soon after having a baby can I start to use Aquaflex?
A
Listen to your body, and start as soon as you feel comfortable. It's best to wait until any stitches or grazes have healed, which will probably take up to eight weeks. Alternatively, wait until you've been given the all clear at your post-natal check-up.
Q
What should I do if I can't hold in an empty cone when I'm lying down, and pulling gently on the cord?
A
If this happens to you, you may need some help from a specialist women's health physiotherapist. Your doctor will be able to recommend one in your area.
Q
Do I have to stand up when using the cones?
A
Yes, in the upright position, gravity will cause the cone to move downwards. To prevent the cone from falling out, the muscles tighten up around it and keep it in place. This automatic reaction would not occur without gravity, so sitting down would be ineffective.
Q
How can I tell if I've got my cone in the right place?
A
All women are shaped differently, so the precise position will vary from person to person. As a general guide, if the cone pulls away from your finger when you have inserted it, then you are using the correct muscles. If it pushes down on your finger then you are probably using your abdominal muscles instead of your pelvic floor muscles.
Make sure you don't position the cone as high as you would a tampon. You may find that the cone slips down slightly, but always ensure the cone remains fully enclosed within the vagina.
Q
What is the best time of day to use Aquaflex?
A
Aquaflex can be used at any time to fit in with your schedule. It's worth bearing in mind though, that as the day wears on, your muscles may become tired. So, if you exercise in the evening, you may not be able to use as many weights or to exercise for as long as usual.
Q
For how long should I continue to use Aquaflex?
A
With regular daily use, you should notice some improvement within eight weeks. To maximise the benefits of Aquaflex, it's important that you continue to exercise every day for up to twelve weeks.
Q
What should I do if I'm exercising regularly but don't feel any improvement?
A
First check the instructions again, and make sure you're using Aquaflex in the correct way. If you are, and you're not getting the results you'd hoped for, you can either ring the Aquaflex FREEPHONE Helpline, or ask your doctor to put you in touch with a specialist women's health physiotherapist for one to one advice.
Q
Once my pelvic floor muscles are stronger, is there a maintenance routine I should follow?
A
To make sure you maintain the strength of your pelvic floor muscles it's a good idea to continue to use Aquaflex just once or twice a week. After every period, you could check whether you are still able to hold the cone in place at the heaviest weight you could previously manage. If you can't, it's time to exercise with Aquaflex again, to get your muscles back to their full strength.
physiotherapist for one to one advice.
Q
Can I use Aquaflex if I experience vaginal dryness?
A
Yes. You may find the Aquaflex cone easier to insert if it is wet with water or if a very small amount of lubricant is applied. Too much lubricant will make it too difficult to retain the cone.
Q
Am I likely to get thrush or any other infection from Aquaflex?
A
Not if you follow a simple hygiene routine. Always make sure you wash your hands thoroughly before using Aquaflex. Make sure every individual part of your Aquaflex kit is washed in soapy water, rinsed, and thoroughly dried each and every time you use it. Pay special attention to the area where the cord enters the cone, and keep the cones in their clean container.
