Upon first use, it is important to use the
vaginal balls in a place where you can
remove them or adjust them. To start,
wear the balls for thirty minutes per day
to get used to them. However, if you are
immediately comfortable, feel free to wear
them for several hours and at least four
days a week. Your body position and your
activities while wearing the exercisers will
affect the level of difficulty.
Begin the progressive training in a sitting
position. Train yourself to contract and relax
your pelvic muscles and to become aware
of the movement of the balls. Once you
feel comfortable, you can practice more
demanding exercises while wearing the
balls, such as housework, squats and walking.
Make sure that you are sufficiently in
control before any outdoor activities.
Floravi’s Kegel exercisers are specially
designed to accompany women in the
process of gradually strengthening their
pelvic muscles. As with regular weights,
you should start your training with the
lighter weights. When you find that the
exercises require little effort, you can progress
to the next weight level for a higher
level of difficulty (see side box). If you are
fully in control when you wear the heaviest
weight with the retrieval cord, you can now
continue training without the cord. Again,
start with lighter weight and gradually
increase (from 30gr to 90gr).
By regularly exercising your muscles, you
will notice a steady improvement.
As every woman will progress at a different
rate, there is no standard duration for the
treatment. Stop the treatment when you
feel that your pelvic muscles have had a
sufficient workout, even if you have not
used the maximum weight.
Floravi water-based lubricant is recommended
when using the Kegel Exercisers.
Insertion
The balls are inserted just like a tampon. To
ease the insertion, put yourself in a comfortable
position, such as squatting, sitting,
or lying on your back. Pay attention to your
vaginal cervix, it will indicate how deep to
push the balls (≈ 2 cm from the vaginal
opening). Your vagina will close around
the balls to indicate the right depth. If you
insert them too deeply, your muscles will
not be able to contract properly. To make
insertion easier, use an intimate lubricant.
Removal
With the retrieval cord : If you use the balls
with the retrieval cord, gently pull the cord
to remove the balls from the vagina.
Without the retrieval cord : If you prefer to
use the balls without the retrieval cord, the
simplest way to remove them is to push by contracting your pelvic muscles. If you have
used the balls for an extended period,
they may be lying a little higher and more
difficult to remove. There is no need to
worry. First, relax. Start by adding lubricant
then stand up and walk, cough or jump in
place.
