FACTS ONLY
Fact: Restoring youthful muscle tone after childbirth can have a major impact on sexual satisfaction for both partners and can significantly improve the frequency and intensity of orgasm. The state of the pelvic floor muscles is implicated as a major contributor to the conditions being identified as 'Female Sexual Dysfunction'.
Fact: Very few women exercise their pelvic floor effectively and on a regular basis. Among those that do, very many fail to identify and exercise the correct muscles, and this can do more harm than good.
Fact: 20% of women over 40 experience embarrassing leaks, and over half of all women experience stress incontinence at some time in their lives. The majority fail to seek clinical help and those that do will put up with the symptoms for an average of 4 years before consulting a health professional (Gallup, 1994). It is estimated that 20% of sanitary pad sales are used to self treat the symptoms of stress incontinence.
Fact: Incontinence is a major drain on the resources of the NHS and makes many other 'serious' medical conditions pale into insignificance. An estimated 3,000,000 individuals have suffered symptoms 'in the past year'. The cost to the NHS is estimated at over £350,000,000 per year (source: Continence Foundation, April 2000)
Fact: Doctors recommend pelvic floor exercises as the preferred primary treatment for stress incontinence and 70-80% cure/improvement rates are reported. (Royal College of Physicians, 1995) Fact: Simple pelvic floor exercises deliver a significantly higher rate of objective cure than alternatives such as electrostimulation and vaginal cones (BMJ, 1999)

Clinical studies revealed that 25% of women indicated their sex lives were adversely affected by post-natal incontinence.
Fact: 80% of users of the PelvicToner reported that their stress incontinence symptoms were improved/much improved after just one month - 32% reported an improvement after just one week. (User survey, 2001)
Fact: 50% of users of the PelvicToner noted that they and/or their partner noticed an improvement in their vaginal embrace leading directly to a more satisfying sexual experience. (User survey, 2001)
