Empelvic
Empowering your pelvic floor
The Empelvic Method in its simplicity makes you clearly feel your pelvic floor when sitting and exercising with the Empelvic Pillow.
We have achieved this by shaping the cushion to create pressure against the pelvic floor. The pressure provides internal feedback to the brain about what muscles and structures we need to work with when doing pelvic floor exercises. Breathing and movement of the body trigger reflective movement of the pelvic floor. When you can feel how your pelvic floor is moving in this interaction, it becomes easy to learn to actively tighten and relax it. Thus, through the method and the pressure of the pillow, you become able to train your pelvic floor.
Exercising the pelvic floor is the way to greater enjoyment and prevents a wide variety of problems.
Training your pelvic floor means letting it move freely. Both in tension and relaxation. It is important to keep your body strong and supple, to avoid pain and drips, and to sense and enjoy sexuality.
