Vaginal Probes

A vaginal probe, also referred to as a vaginal electrode probe, is a specialized medical device aimed at aiding pelvic floor exercises and strengthening the muscles in the pelvic region.

While these probes may vary in shape and size, the ones we offer typically feature two visible conductive rings made of silver, serving a specific purpose in muscle stimulation.

Key Functions of a Vaginal Probe:

The primary role of a vaginal probe is to improve pelvic floor exercises by delivering controlled electrical impulses to the targeted muscles.

Inserted into the vagina, the probe's conductive rings make contact with the surrounding pelvic floor muscles. When connected to a compatible electrical stimulation device, these rings deliver controlled electrical impulses, stimulating the muscles effectively.

Benefits of a Vaginal Probe:

Using a vaginal probe during pelvic floor exercises allows for more precise and effective muscle contractions, aiding in the treatment of conditions like urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, or muscle weakness due to childbirth, surgery, or aging.

Important Considerations:

It is crucial to use a vaginal probe under the guidance of a healthcare professional or as directed by a qualified practitioner. They can offer proper instructions on insertion, usage, and tailored electrical stimulation settings based on individual needs.

Using a Pelvic Floor Stimulator with Your Vaginal Probe

Electronic pelvic toners, also known as pelvic floor stimulators, utilize neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) to strengthen pelvic floor muscles effectively. These devices use electrical pulses to stimulate muscles and nerve fibers within the pelvic area.

How it Works:

  • Electrical Pulses: Pelvic stimulators deliver precise electric pulses to targeted areas of weakened pelvic muscles, inducing muscle contractions and subsequent relaxation.
  • Stimulation-Rest Cycle: These devices incorporate a stimulation-rest cycle, ensuring adequate recovery periods for muscles to heal without causing pelvic pain.

Understanding the natural electrical signals in the body helps demystify the concept of using electric pulses for muscle stimulation. Over time, repeated contractions and relaxations lead to strengthened muscles, improved muscle control, increased tone, and enhanced tightness in the pelvic region.
