About YoniFlex
What is YONIFLEX and how does it work?
YoniFlex is an at-home pelvic floor electrical muscle stimulation (EMS). It delivers controlled electrical impulses through a vaginal probe to stimulate pelvic floor muscle contractions.

YoniFlex offers adjustable stimulation programs for convenient at-home use.
What is electrical muscle stimulation (EMS)
Electrical muscle stimulation, or EMS, uses controlled electrical impulses to stimulate muscle contractions.
With YoniFlex, these impulses are delivered through a vaginal probe or YoniFlex Patches to activate the pelvic floor muscles.
Electrical stimulation is used in pelvic floor rehabilitation, particularly for women who may have difficulty identifying or voluntarily contracting their pelvic floor muscles.
How is YoniFlex different from traditional Kegel exercises?
Traditional Kegel exercises involve consciously contracting and relaxing the pelvic floor muscles.
YoniFlex uses electrical stimulation to produce muscle contractions without requiring you to perform each contraction voluntarily.
Often times women have difficulty performing voluntary Kegel exercises correctly. That is why we developed YoniFlex, we took the guess work out for you.
Who is YoniFlex designed for?
YoniFlex is designed for anyone who may be experiencing a very common issue that is not talked about enough -PELVIC HEALTH.
How do I know if my pelvic floor muscles are weak?
Possible signs of pelvic floor weakness include:
Urine leakage when coughing, sneezing, laughing, or exercising
Difficulty voluntarily contracting the pelvic floor muscles
A sensation of reduced pelvic support
Difficulty maintaining bladder control
A heavy sensation "down there"
A lack of sensation or a feeling of loose muscles.
Do I need a physiotherapist to use YoniFlex?
YoniFlex is designed for at-home personal use.
However, a pelvic health physiotherapist can also help assess your symptoms, identify your pelvic floor needs, and determine whether electrical stimulation is appropriate. We have many physiotherapists who endorse the use of YoniFlex.
What makes YoniFlex different from other pelvic floor trainers?
YoniFlex combines pelvic floor electrical stimulation for at-home use.
Features include:
Adjustable stimulation intensity
Multiple training programs
A reusable vaginal probe for individual use
Convenient at-home training sessions
Electrically stimulated muscle contractions without requiring a voluntary Kegel squeeze which takes out the guess work and allows you to know each kegel is done correctly.
Unlike devices that only guide or measure voluntary exercises, YoniFlex actively delivers electrical stimulation to the pelvic floor muscles.
