We'll tell you everything: from setup and training to the best available options. You'll see that these products aren't just for one type of woman. 

The perineum: a key muscle for all women

 The perineum, or pelvic floor , is a group of muscles located at the base of the pelvis, between the pubis and the coccyx.

It plays an essential role in maintaining internal organs (such as the bladder and uterus), managing urinary incontinence, and improving sensations during intercourse.

During a woman's life, this part of the body may become tired or stretched .

This is particularly well-known after childbirth, but it is also a reality for many women for many other reasons:

• intensive or recurring practice of high-impact sports (running, weightlifting, gymnastics, etc.),

• hormonal fluctuations, ️

• overweight and obesity,

• aging,

• chronic constipation

• chronic cough,

• carrying heavy loads,

• the genetic factor.

As you can see, you don't need to have had a child or be approaching menopause to benefit from pelvic floor rehabilitation . Just as you don't need to wait until these muscles weaken to take action!

But good news: regular exercises with Kegel balls can prevent and "cure" perineal weakness !

Kegel balls: what are they?

Kegel balls, also called Kegel balls, not to be confused with geisha balls , are very effective accessories for strengthening and toning this sensitive area.

Who are Kegel balls for?

Contrary to popular belief, Kegel balls aren't just for new mothers. As explained above, here are a few situations where these products can be helpful:

• After childbirth: to regain a toned perineum.

• Before or after menopause: to strengthen the pelvic floor and prevent organ prolapse.

How do Kegel balls work?

Kegel balls are small care objects to be inserted into the vagina to perform muscle contraction exercises.

They come in the form of balls or eggs with a cord at the end to facilitate their removal.
Their varying weights allow you to work the pelvic floor muscles at different levels . Resting at the vaginal opening, the pelvic floor muscles must contract more or less depending on the weight to keep the ball inside! With continued use and by gradually increasing the weight, your pelvic floor muscles strengthen… and you'll notice the difference.

As you've probably gathered, pelvic floor rehabilitation with Kegel balls is quite simple and offers numerous benefits. Regardless of your age, whether you're a mother or not, these products provide an ideal solution for toning and strengthening your pelvic floor , preserving your well-being, and improving your quality of life.
