Pelvic Fitness in Just a Few Minutes Each Day

 

StepFree™ Vaginal Weights, a vaginal weight program that really works!


StepFree™ Vaginal Weights offer a progressive weights system for improving pelvic floor muscular control. Studies have shown that pelvic floor muscle exercise programs like this one improve bladder control for many woman within 4-6 weeks.

The Step Free™ system starts with a small plastic cone with different stainless steel vaginal weights that you put inside your vagina for about 15 minutes, twice a day. They come in a set of five different sizes. You start your program or training with the lightest weight first. You need to use your pelvic floor muscles to hold the cone in place. Once you are able to hold onto the lightest weight comfortably, without it falling out, you move up to the next size, and so on.


• Do you have trouble controlling when you urinate?
• Do you leak urine when you cough or sneeze?
• Do you have a sudden need to go to the toilet so badly that you're not sure you're going to make it and perhaps sometimes you don't?
• Does a fear of wetting yourself and smelling of urine keep you from activities?


The loss of bladder control — known as incontinence — is an all too common, often embarrassing and frustrating problem for millions of people. If you answered yes to any of the above questions, you may count yourself among them.


Pelvic floor muscle training has long been the most common form of conservative treatment for stress urinary incontinence. Many people have trouble identifying their pelvic floor muscles, and thus difficulty training it. Step Free Vaginal Weights will help you identify and strengthen your pelvic floor and enhance continence.


Step Free™ Weights come in a set of five reusable, tampon-like, non-sterile vaginal weights of identical size and shape but increasing, with numbers 1 to 5 on the rounded end of each vaginal weights. This system is designed to be used while performing basic Kegel exercises. When inserted into the vagina, the appropriate unit will necessitate the pelvic floor muscles to contract around the cone in order to retain it.


Performing Kegel exercises (contracting the pelvic floor muscles) have been found to strengthen the pelvic floor and may improve urinary incontinence.


So much for so little…
Exercise equipment can be pricey, but the StepFree pelvic muscle toning program is priced very reasonably and an easy way to start building pelvic floor strength. Consult your doctor first about bladder control problems to help determine the underlying cause and best treatment for you. Documented bladder control improvement for many women is seen in 4-6 weeks of starting a Step Free™ Vaginal Weight program.
