Let’s talk about the latest “shiny object” in the world of pelvic health: fancy chairs and high-priced devices promising to “fix” your pelvic floor, with the push of a button.

In today’s conversation, we’re getting a littttle spicy, and spilling some major pelvic floor truth bombs. Honestly, these “quick fix” solutions (like the Emsella chair, aka the Kegel chair), just DON’T sit well with us.

While they might sound appealing, the reality is these devices are expensive, over-marketed, and often miss the point ENTIRELY. You can’t outsource body awareness to a machine. These gadgets don’t help you feel your body, understand your symptoms, OR retrain your brain.

Most people don’t need more pelvic floor contractions - they NEED education, relaxation, and personalized care!

If you’re serious about improving your pelvic floor health, we’re here to remind you to skip the flashy chair. Instead, connect with a trained pelvic floor specialist who KNOWS how to help your body heal from the inside out!

In this episode, we’re covering:

  • The rise of pelvic floor gadgets like the Emsella chair + why they’re not actually solving the problem
  • Why you can’t outsource body awareness to a device or machine
  • The wild price tag on these devices + why they’re rarely worth it
  • Understanding that pelvic health isn’t one-size-fits-all, and real healing requires hands-on, whole-person care
  • How fear-based marketing around these devices misses the mark on true wellness
