Elvie

Pelvic Floor Trainer

The Elvie Pelvic Floor Trainer is a device that measures pelvic floor contractions, helping you build strength to avoid symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction. (The pelvic floor is a set of muscles that sits like a hammock from the pubic bone at the front to the tailbone at the back. The uterus and bladder sit above your pelvic floor and your urethra, vagina and rectum run through it.) Improving pelvic strength can help with leaks, prolapse, postnatal recovery, mental well-being and more.

The Elvie connects to an app so you can visualize and improve your technique. Patented technology detects directional pull, so you’ll know if you’re pushing muscles down instead of pulling up (correct movement is key to building strength). To improve pelvic floor strength in four weeks, Elvie recommends five minutes of training a day, three times a week.

Key features:

• App: Set reminders and goals in the app while also tracking your progress on each exercise and score
• Six exercises and four levels: Strength, speed, lift, pulse, hold and step exercises help build muscle power; progress from training to advanced
• Designed with medical-grade silicone to be small, smooth, easy to insert and comfortable (created by women for women)
• Optional cover for a custom fit
• Rechargeable and portable: Carry Case doubles as a wireless charger

Wondering whether you can use the Elvie Trainer while pregnant? While there aren’t any technical reasons it can’t be used, Elvie doesn’t recommend using it unless you have consulted with a healthcare professional first. Their ideal timing recommendation is at least six weeks postpartum.
