They can be carried out with the help of a midwife, a physiotherapist or a gynecologist. In principle, around ten sessions are enough to obtain very concrete results on urinary leakage problems.

Some brands already offer connected ones, with exercises to perform. If you thought that this object was just a naughty toy for adults, you might be surprised by its effectiveness on the pelvic muscles.
