Elvie Manual Pelvic Floor Trainer

Why pelvic floor exercise matters

The pelvic floor is a very important set of muscles that sits like a hammock between your tailbone and pubic bone. When healthy and toned they protect your body against the effects of pregnancy, childbirth, ageing menopause, and impact sport. If your pelvic floor becomes weakened or damaged it can lead to both bladder and bowel incontinence, pelvic pain, prolapse and a lack of intimate sensation. Despite what many tv adverts may suggest, you don’t have to accept a life of leaks every time you cough, sneeze or laugh.

Pelvic floor exercise, or Kegels, are recommended globally by experts to prevent or treat pelvic floor problems. The problem is the muscles are hidden so they are difficult to exercise correctly as you have no indication you are doing the right thing. That’s where Elvie comes in… 

About Elvie

Elvie is the award-winning manual exercise tracker for your pelvic floor. Simply place inside, connect to the app and track your strength. As you work the muscles they contract which causes the on-screen gem to lift, allowing you to see your pelvic floor exercises in real time. The six unique games have been designed with the help of physiotherapists and experts from Imperial College and University of Oxford. From Speed, which challenges your fast-twitch muscles, to Hold which builds endurance, the 6 different exercises give your pelvic floor a full workout. Elvie is your most personal trainer - motivating and correcting as you exercise, and tracking your progress over time whilst actually making it enjoyable as your try to beat your old scores. The Exercises can be set to 4 different difficulty levels so whether you are a total beginner, or a Kegel queen the Elvie is great for you.

Why Choose Elvie, the award-winning Kegel exercise tracker?

Elvie is the smallest manual Kegel exerciser available and the only one to detect if you are exercising correctly using motion sense technology. At the same time, the force sensors measure the strength of your squeeze and connects to the app allowing you to see each time exercise and how effective it is. This addresses one of main reasons women fail to do their Kegels, the inability to see if they are doing them properly. Because the app records the results of each workout you can easily see the progress you are making which will help to keep you focused and motivated on the path to gaining a stronger and healthier pelvic floor.

Elvie is made with medical grade silicone and is rubber and latex free. It is 100% waterproof and has passed rigorous testing. More than 150 women were consulted during the design process and over 98% of women found the final shape comfortable and easy to use. It even comes with an optional cover for custom sizing. The small and sleek design of your Elvie and its charging case makes it super discrete, perfect for taking on your travels.
