Kegel exercises have been known since the 40s of the last century. The gynecologist Arnold Kegel invented and developed them. They strengthen the muscles of the intimate zone and pelvis, the weakening of which leads to various unpleasant conditions in the fair sex. He also invented a device for strengthening the muscles of the small pelvis. Kegel simulators improved over time, and now they help women to improve the quality of their sexual lives, and will cope with the problems of the genitourinary system.
What is a device?
Kegel simulators are based on special Kegel exercises to strengthen the muscles of the pelvis. The procedure with their use is safe and painless. The first device, which was developed by a gynecologist, was called the perineum. His package included a manometer, which could determine how strong the muscle tissue of the pelvic floor. Strengthening the muscles of the small pelvis not only increased the quality of sexual life, but also saved a number of diseases. The simulators underwent clinical trials, where they showed a high result. The effect was in 93% of cases from 100%.
All devices based on Kegel exercises operate on the principle of resistance. This is an old model of devices equipped with a rubber bulb, a manometer, and more modern devices with feedback. All of them are made of special safe materials.
Kegel simulators: types
Recently, several types of devices have been used to strengthen the muscles of the small pelvis. Among them, the simulators stand out:
- aimed at strengthening intimate muscle tissue;
- with special feedback (equipped with a sensor that allows you to control the correctness of the procedures using the pressure gauge and display);
- expanders for pelvic muscles;
- with a laser;
- in the shape of a chair.
In order to choose one or another device, you need to consult a gynecologist. As practice shows, the effectiveness of training the pelvic floor muscles with the use of special devices increases many times higher than performing Kegel exercises without a simulator.

The vaginal chamber is inserted into the vagina. Subsequently, with the help of a deposit, the pressure in the chamber increases, and it increases in size. There is pressure on the vaginal walls from the inside and direct massage of the intimate organ. Other parts of the pelvis are involuntarily massaged. Feedback devices are equipped with a sensor that detects all movements and helps to monitor the correctness of the exercises.
