Clinical Tip #4:
Use a Kegel Exercise Device
For enhanced awareness of your Pelvic Floor, look for Kegel exercise devices like Inti Fit’s premium kegel exercisers, which are excellent at increasing awareness of the pelvic floor, and helping with proprioception.
When it comes to kegel exercises and devices, it is not the weight that matters as much as the amount of feedback that the device gives and how comfortable it is. Listen as Brent explains that proprioception and awareness are the keys here – not how much your pelvic floor can lift.
