How does my child train with the PelvicTool

Children and adolescents who suffer from pelvic floor dysfunction should be supervised by a therapist.

Regular practice at home is important for training progress and, once instructed by a physiotherapist or urotherapist, can easily be carried out at home:

  • The PelvicTool is placed on a flat surface, e.g. a stool; it consists of a comfortable seat cushion with a soft sensor tube positioned in the centre.

 

  • The child can sit on it in light training clothes and complete the playfully designed training programmes via the PelvicTool app on a smartphone or tablet. Important: Feet must always be placed flat on the floor or on a footstool.

 

  • Thanks to biofeedback, the child can see on the screen in real time how the pelvic floor muscles contract and relax during the exercises. It’s an excellent way to build body awareness – and kids actually find it fun!

Guide

Pelvic floor training can not only help prevent bladder weakness. Stronger pelvic floor muscles can also help with back pain and enhance a more pleasurable sex life.
