1. INTRODUCTION
Device Description & Principles of
Design
Bladder leakage and incontinence are
common problems for both women and
men, affecting their long-term health.
Exercising the pelvic floor muscles is
recognized as the way of preventing
and treating symptoms of incontinence
and pelvic floor weakness.
The
Kegel Toner
is a powered muscle
stimulator used for strengthening the
pelvic floor muscles.
It sends a gentle stimulation (similar to
your natural nerve impulses) direct to
your pelvic floor muscles through a
vaginal Trainer with stainless steel
electrodes. These signals make your
pelvic floor muscle contract. If you have
forgotten how to contract your pelvic
floor, are having trouble getting muscle
response, or simply want to bring back
the condition of
your
pelvic
floor
muscles, the
Kegel Toner
can work
them for you to build up their strength
and help you to develop your own
muscle
control.
It
perfectly
complements pelvic floor exercises.
The
Kegel Toner
is very easy to use,
with two preset training programs, two
choices of exercise time and simple
push button control.
2. INDICATIONS FOR USE
The
Kegel Toner
is intended
to provide electrical stimulation
and
neuromuscular
re-
education
for
the
purpose
of
rehabilitation of weak pelvic floor
muscles for the treatment of stress
incontinence in women.
The
Kegel Toner
is intended for adult
women suffering from the involuntary
loss of urine when coughing, laughing,
sneezing or exercising (known as
stress urinary incontinence).
If you leak urine when you cough,
sneeze, laugh, strain or make sudden
movements, this is called Stress
Incontinence.
It is particularly common in women who
have had a natural childbirth and occurs
when the bladder neck and the other
mechanisms that act to hold urine in the
bladder are not working properly. The
most common cause is a weak pelvic
floor.
Kegel Toner
is not recommended if
you ONLY have symptoms of urinary
frequency or urgency (using the
restroom very frequently or having to
rush to the restroom) and have NO
symptoms of leakage when coughing,
laughing, sneezing or exercising.
Warning:
Not suitable for use
in children without medical
supervision.
